Description:
We actually had snow in North Texas yesterday!! It didn't stick around for even a full hour, but it was white, fluffy, and cold. Since we're expecting more of the same tomorrow, I've had my thoughts on warm things and thought I'd include you guys! For this swap, let's send our partners something to keep them warm. What, you ask? That would be a surprise! It's a sender's choice swap. Just make it a value of about $5, give or take, before shipping. You could make a scarf or a hat, you could fill a box with hot chocolate or tea, you could send a pair of gloves from the dollar store plus a good book to read while they're cozied up under a blanket...there are possibilities galore! Please do look at your partners profile and the comments below to make sure your partner will enjoy what you've chosen to keep them warm. And if it is not listed in your profile, I would suggest adding a comment here if you dislike or if you prefer a certain hot beverage. Open to all OoO Traders group members in good standing.

I enjoy almost any type of hot drink, but I most often drink decaf tea and coffee.

I do not care for coffee or tea myself but absolutely love apple cider and hot chocolate. I love blankets to I can never have enough blankets wether its winter summmer fall or spring. Love being wrapped up in a blanket.

I would take coffee, tea, cocoa, but no cider. I would prefer some sort of crafty magazine or womens magzine instead of a book, if you are sending something to read. It gets cold here, so I could use some gloves or a scarf. ;o) Sounds fun!

Great idea for a swap! Tonight I'm freezing in Oregon (Portland area). It's supposed to be in the 50s & raining; but it's been COLD! My husband just told me it is going to be in the low 30s this week. Brrrrr! I sure could use something hot to drink (tea, hot chocolate) and maybe some warm socks or a scarf (my profile has details). You may have other good ideas too :)

Now I live in a tropical country where we never have winter but I'd love a book or two to read during the holidays, I'd love to send my partner some of my favorite hot drinks [something from the other side of the globe lol].

Yay! I love that you guys are "running with this"!
I just left my comment as an example....thought I'd speak up again to make sure my partner knows I'm not specifically requesting only decaf tea. I like surprises! :o)

I don't drink coffee at all, and the only chocolate I care for is hot chocolate. I'd love any scarf, gloves, socks, hot chocolate..anything you desire to send. But please, no coffee!

We recently have had lots of snow in the Iowa area. We had 14 inches in my local area and freezing rain. I would love to be wrapped up in a warm fuzzy blanket. I do not care for coffee or tea personally. Trying to stay warm Jessica

After close to 70 degree weather yesterday, a cold front blew in again last night. Perfect time to assign partners! Have fun, everyone!
