Recently, Pen Friends hosted and attended a Letter Writing Social. <a href="http://thesnailmailer.blogspot.com/2012/11/long-but-good-day.html">http://thesnailmailer.blogspot.com/2012/11/long-but-good-day.html</a> It was great to hear about the event and its success. What fun it must have been to try the supplies and punches that were provided; as well as write a letter or two! Hands-on activities does spark creativity. In addition, I can only imagine the excitement of meeting those you have been writing to. It is so fun to put a face/voice with the person you have exclusively known thru the mail. I am sure this successful social sparked the interest in some to start writing letters - if not for the first time, then to start writing again. </div>

I'm absolutely loving all of the Halloween inspired mail! What did you do on the 31st to mark this occasion?</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Mail in from: Germany; India; The Netherlands; US - California; Colorado; Georgia; Louisiana; North Carolina; Pennsylvania; Washington; West Virginia. Where are you writing to and receiving from lately?</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Working On: "Project Correspondence Catch-up!" I have gotten shamefully behind with replies. It is time to get pen to paper and have the outbound mail happening again. What are you working on?</div>

Can you believe it is almost the end of October - Already?? Argh! <br />
<br />
Mid-week has very quickly turned into End-of-week in a blink of an eye. You know how that goes. <br />
<br />
The mailbox continues to be busy with an abundance of wonderful, colorful, beautiful cards/letters/inserts and gifties!! Isn't it fun to see the Autumn and Halloween inspired mail too? I can't help but smile with each and every envelope arrival.<br />

The snailmailer and i are are fans of Project Runway. We have been recapping/commenting, etc on each weekly episode. The finale has concluded. As you can see from above - her colorful and creative mail was more than we can say for the designer's creations this time around. Ba-bye Season 10! Hello All-Stars! We are chomping at the bit in anticipation of season 2 and its colorful designers. We are very hopeful for an exciting, colorful and print-filled season. Come on designers - Make It Work!</div>

Autumn - what is not to love about this time of year? This is my absolute favorite season and has been for as long as I can recall. <br />
<br />
Autumn means enjoying:<br />
Crisp mornings and evenings<br />
Cooler, mild days<br />
Beautiful tree colors<br />
Weekend adventures of long drives and picnic lunches in the country<br />
Trips to the mountains for fresh from-the-farm apples and pumpkins<br />
Sipping on fresh apple cider - warmed or chilled<br />
Attending Fall & Craft Festivals<br />
Indulging in Festival Foods such as:<br />
caramel apples<br />
fried pies<br />
corn dogs<br />
kettle corn<br />
More cooking and baking efforts<br />
Wearing favorite sweaters and cooler weather clothing<br />
<br />
To Do List:<br />
Setting up the hot cocoa tray to include :<br />
container of mini marshmallows<br />
containers of homemade and store bought hot cocoa selections<br />
special mugs<br />
ensuring the fridge contains whipped cream<br />
Putting up Autumn Door Decor<br />
Planting mums in containers for the front porch<br />
The beginning of endless leaf raking and bagging<br />
Purging closets and dressers of not worn, no longer liked, wanted or needed items<br />
into donation bags<br />
Changing out seasonal clothing. <br />
<br />
One thing I have been doing this year with my collection of correspondence items is to group and use by theme or season. I've picked out all the traditional fall colors and items such as pumpkins, apples and leaves, etc. My intention is to primarily use these items for all of my corresponding in October and November. While Autumn does start in September, true Autumn for me starts October 1st. I would like to know if you do theme mailings or select certain types or styles of stationery, note cards, etc for specific seasons or times of the year.<br />

Mainly because I absolutely have enough correspondence items currently at home. There are days where I am on a bit of auto-pilot and I find myself at a local Thrift shop to "just look around". Ha! My fellow Thrifters know what that means. You are almost guaranteed a "find" with that thought process!<br />

A few weeks ago I treated myself to a $20.00 shopping spree at Michael's. While Michael's is not a traditional Thrift Store, there are plenty of bargains on any given day. I just love perusing the aisles and bins, getting lost in my thoughts and discovering great finds. I found great paper/writing inspirations at absolute bargain prices. These included Note Card sets, Paperpad Mousepads, Lined and Unlined Note Pads. I was so happy to find lined items as I much prefer to write with pre-printed lines. I'm super self conscious at how wavy and wonky my writing gets using unlined paper; but I continue to push through those insecurities. Many that you see below I picked up in multiple quantities. Because I hate using up favorite items and, I like to share. Can't you just imagine all the fun letters that will be written on these items?</div>

As you may know, I have a fondness for aerogrammes. This week two arrived in the mail bag.<br />
<br />
Lately, a topic of discussion with some pen friends is handwriting/penmanship and writing preferences.<br />

One friend's habit of printing, is now writing in cursive. They commented that they had not written in cursive in quite a long time and it took some practice to get back in the swing of it. After a few weeks, they are now finding cursive to be faster for them. What is your preference in daily writing and when corresponding?<br />

Ahhh, September! What a welcomed sight! Good-bye sweltering Summer heat. Although, I am sure we will continue to have 90sF/low 30sC temperatures before Autumn really sets in. I am positive the 100sF/high 30sC are now behind us.</div>

Hello Mail Bag! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Beautiful postcards from Pals on their holiday travels. Oh the joys of travel and tourism. How nice to be able to hear about their exciting holiday adventures. I continue to be in awe of the beautiful handwriting in the letters I am graced with. I do not know how you do it, but I very much appreciate the time it takes to write your letters. Merci!</div>

Today will mark yet another day in weather history as Hurricane Isaac continues to heavily impact and leave its mark on many of our Gulf Coast states. As I write this, there are reports of over 700,000 without power and a lot of flooding. 7 years ago on this very day, Hurricane Katrina arrived and changed the lives of so many. Thoughts are with pals - <a href="http://writebeforeyoureyes.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Shannah</a>, Sarah and their families - hoping they are safe.</div>

Just when I thought I had missed my opportunity to make Strawberry Jam - Wham! Aldi's was bursting with big wonderful containers of strawberries from Plant City, Florida. 1-lb containers for $.99, so I just had to start jammin' again! Whoop-Whoop!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have been on the hunt for Mason jars, but currently my thrifting adventures and Craigslist sloothing has been a bust. Second option was to find new ones "on sale". I have had good luck at the local Ace Hardware store and at the Big Box stores. For the apricot and peach jams I used the "quilted" Ball style. For the strawberry jam, I am using the traditional Ball style. Where do you find your jars? What are your jar preferences?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Strawberry Jam Yield: 21 half pints and 2 pints</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
How do you enjoy eating strawberry jam?</div>

<span style="background-color: white;">How bad could it it be?</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">You don't know until you try.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">I came across a potential "Find" the other day. A clear bag FULL of cards, note cards, envelopes, etc - heavily sealed with packaging tape to ensure no access and waterproof. Keeping it all a mystery until it is purchased by someone willing to take a chance.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">I was curious enough and paid $2.41 for this package. Oh yes, that is right - UNDER $3. Arriving home, using a few careful snips of scissors and some pseudo surgical moves, I unsealed the bag. I emptied its contents and then sorted through it. </span><br />

Here are some of the finished items from my recent Jammin' and Canning adventures. Some jars have already been quality taste tested by family and friends. I am pleased to say the reviews have all been good. Phew! What a relief.</div>

Yes Sirree!!! I'm elbow deep in canning fruits and making jam! Peaches and apricots are plentiful now. I'm being proactive and jumping on the "canning-wagon". I usually start thinking about making jam in late August or September. By then, I've missed out on the prime season for these fruits. Sadly, I think I'm just a tad late for Strawberries and Blackberries. *Sigh* Oh well, there is always next year! <br />
<br />
I hear from <a href="http://thesnailmailer.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Thesnailmailer</a>, who is busy canning cherry and black raspberry jam. <a href="http://writebeforeyoureyes.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Shannah</a> has been recently canning corn, peas, pickles and tomatoes.<br />
<br />
What are you canning this Summer?<br />

I am not sure whether to call this a "FIND"; a "HAUL"; a "Yahoo moment" or perhaps something else. Well, whatever you call it, I must show you.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Periodically I swing by a few Thrift stores and Goodwill Shops when out running errands. I came across these two boxes. Taped closed and marked "Blank Greeting Cards for Card Making" and "Blank Greeting Cards for Crafting". I just HAD to take a look. All of the cards are 4x6. One box contained a nice variety of printed designs on the front and good quality cardstock. They were grouped in packs of 10 with envelopes and had a rubber band wrapped around each pack. The other box contained colored/textured cards with envelopes probably used for card making/adorning, etc. Same situation - grouped in packs of 10 and rubber banded and good quality cardstock. A quick count - each box contained 250... yes...250 cards/envelopes. Prices on the boxes were listed as $4.94. SOLD! I absolutely </span><span style="background-color: white;">could not pass this up. While the quantity of cards is a bit overwhelming, I'm sure they will be put to good use whether it is writing/sending; gifted; and perhaps in some swaps. If you are interested in a trade/swap, please let me know.</span></div>

What Thrift Store adventures have you been on lately?<br />

Today marks the first day of Summer for many; the last day of school for others; Summer Solstice for those in the Northern Hemisphere and Winter Solstice for those in the Southern Hemisphere. Today is the 80th Birthday of my Father-in-Law. Starting a new decade with lots to look forward; as well as many decades of memories and reflection. Happy Birthday Dad!<br />
<br />
Mail Bag is full of Summery tidbits that include flowers, butterflies, animals basking in the sun and Raspberry dessert goodness. In addition, there's lots of talk and anticipation of Summer Camp; holidays/vacations; trips local and abroad and upcoming adventures. <br />
<br />
What signs of Summer are you sending and/or receiving?<br />
