Mug Swap 2014 Brags Away! <3

[xeevee]

I love flowering tea.  I drank so much of it in China.

I wonder what you're going to make of vegemite, Alexia.  Be aware, it isn't like peanut butter, you just use a tiny little scraping.  And if you hate it, it's actually really good for treating mouth sores and you can use it like Bouillon in soup too.

More awesome boxes!! I love the flamingo mug! And jelly bellies! Yum!


And the armadillo mug is awesome!! Also...don't just eat the Tim tams plain! You've got to try at least one Tim tam slam, Alexia! It's the best thing ever.

[M!ndy]

Oh yay! I'm ashamed to admit that I haven't been keeping up with the brags 
But oh my gosh - they all look so amazing!! Congrats everyone who has bragged so far

Alexia, I'm so glad you're enjoying the teas! Being in Aus, most of the Aussie Teas that I'd usually send have Eucalyptus in them so I went hard core with the fruit and vanilla type teas instead! And even though you said no chocolate, I had to include some teeny TimTams for you to try!

I think a TimTam slam would be impossible with the Bites Mkia They're only around 2cm or less long!

EDIT: Oh and I second what Xeevee said - You only need a tiny bit of Vegemite because it is quite strong. It's also quite salty tasting. I personally love it, but it is one of those things that you either love or you hate.. hence the small packaging lol

Oh! I didn't realize they were smaller than normal Tim tams lol. Yeah that might make it difficult!!

I love all the new brags:)

My turn to brag.

My parcel came from OLumeVaSti, and she spoiled the pants off me.

This was what the box looked like when I first opened it.

All purple and sparkly.

My first present was this beautiful custom etched glass mug.

I had a lot of trouble picking up the engraving but it says 'MLP Mug Swap 2014'

Next I got this lot of awesome stickers!  I love stickers!

I especially love the 3D pony stickers.  They are really pretty.  And the little label stickers are hilarious. 

Next pic is terrible sorry.  But here is all my noms.

That coffee smells amazing!  And I can't wait to try the maple cookies!

That candle smells delicious.  And the little tea pot ornament is probably my favourite thing in the box.  It says 'No Stamp Act' on it.  As an Australian I had no idea what that meant.  So I looked it up, and it made the ornament that extra bit awesome.

And finally this:

Thank you again, OLumeVaSti!  I love it all.  Sorry for the terribly dark pics.  I should have waited until day time to take the photos but I was too excited last night!

[Mkia]

Congrats xeevee!! What an awesome box . I loooove the TARDIS mug!!

[OLumeVaSti]

I am glad you liked it and it came in one piece. I actually found that teapot at a yard sale and thought it was cute. I didn't even think of the meaning. 

[Kitkumi]

I got my box from the wonderful Sourdough Stomper back at the start of this week  I wish I could have sat down earlier to make a proper brag, because I absolutely love everything that was in the box, but a very long work week has kept me off the internet up until now lol.

First off, we have some absolutely delicious candy! (it didn't survive long after this picture was taken ) Coconut is one of my favorite foods, and the other was raspberry which I loved. And stickers of some of my favorite things (my kitty doesn't much like the leaf stickers but that may have been because I stuck one to her forehead lol)

And here is the mug! I've already used it a few times this week for tea after work, so it is doing its job like a champion mug, which has been great because it has also been rainy and cold where I live all week. I love its colors and theme, and it fits in perfectly with my kitchen! The candle is also beautiful, and in my colors!  If I burn it, it is going to have to be for a special occasion because it is just too pretty. I also love the little owl; it's actually hand cream, which I go through a lot of, and it is going to make the cutest box after it is empty! Also, BABY PONY!  I've always wanted one and she now has a place to call home on my shelf I was so excited when I unwrapped her.

I also had this waiting for me in the other thread. It is adorable, and it absolutely surprised and floored me that she had all three of my pony ocs in one place! I love it ^_^

[Mkia]

[tikibirds]

Tardis mug...awesome 

[SourdoughStomper]

I'm glad you love all the things!

[Marigold]

We are still waiting on a few boxes yes?

[Mkia]

We are still waiting on a few boxes yes?

Yup just waiting on two! M!ndy and Mirnyj are still waiting. Hopefully this week! Darn international shipping 

[tikibirds]

International shipping tends to suck. Not only is it $$$$$ BUT about 1/2 the time my packages get a scenic tour  . I sent one package to canada and it was in the right city but then got sent to PEI, stayed there for like 3 weeks and then finally went back to Toronto. Needless to say my partner was not amused. Luckily I had the tracking #. I should of just driven to Toronto and delivered it in person, its only like 8 hrs from here.
