BBF (Best Bloggy Friends)

I have formed friendships with many bloggers out there and I feel very lucky to have met some of the sweetest and nicest ladies from all over. One person that always comes to mind is Lis from Lis Loves. We have a lot in common and I always say that I wish we lived closer.

We got to talking about books and she offered to send some my way that she had read and liked. On Saturday, I received a package and inside contained the following books: Bergdorf Blondes, Everyone Worth Knowing and Cocktails For Three. Now, I have lots of good reading to look forward to this summer! Also inside the package were some extra special surprises. We both have July birthdays coming up and she sent me a sweet card along with the best smelling candle from Bath & Body Works in a scent called Vanilla Coconut. It smells so fresh and just like summer. She also sent the cutest OPI nail kit. Inside the kit were two bottles of OPI polish. One was a topcoat and the other a fantastic pink color called “Shorts Story”.

This was so unexpected and incredibly sweet! Thanks, Lis!!

Hi Jules, :)
Isn't blogland wonderful!

What an incredibly sweet gesture from her and really nice gifts I might add.
The lotion sounds delicious. Mmmm...
Isn't it funny how they make the names sound like food nowadays. LOL!
You'll have to let us know how the books are. I need some new ones for sure.

Have a great evening my friend.
