I promised you and the lovely bunch at ISE6 details about the package I received this round. So without further ado, here it is:
My pal, Chelle, decided to use her heritage for this rounds theme ~ chinese luck. Wonder how she knew I love chinese...food. LOLMy scarf is a shade of red ~ which means happiness, success and fortune, its also my favorite color. Its made from Crazy 4 Dyeing yarn. 
There is also a very lovely card and a bear dressed in a sheep costume ornament. ;) The scarf is a beautiful, intricate pattern that I will enjoy wearing, once the weather cools. LOL (wow ~ I've 2 lovely scarves from this exchange)

Bar of soap w/the Eiffel Tower ~ smells yummy, a Lush ball ~ can't wait to try this, and a bar of milk chocolate ~ my favorite thing.
This rounds we were to send good karma to our pal along with something they will remember us by ~ I will definitely remember the thoughtfulness of Chelle and cherish the heritage she has shared with me. Thank you. ;)

Everyone is raving about those Lush products - I haven't tried them yet but I should. I love a hot bath with a favorite book!
Oh, that was me, your Secret Pal!
Darn I thought I had put in the ball band for the yarn! It's actually SWTC Pure soysilk that I made your scarf out of.
My family is speak Cantonese so we call the lucky red envelope lay see (pronounced liesee). I'm glad you collect coins because I think I made sure to send you a Winter Olympic coin(Vancouver/Whistler 2010)
I hope that you have or will have some time and relax with that bath bomb! With work and children (and all the other stuff) I know it can be hard to find time for yourself, but don't forget to take a little break every now and then ;-)
Ah - here is the info - Crazy 4 Dying Cool Moss - yummy yarn! :)
Great package you got from Chelle!
