Yipee Yeah!!! Guess who! Well, if you guess now that would take away the fun, since this is your new Secret Pal checking in. Thanks for taking the time to tell me about you. I'm headed to Stitches East next weekend and will be thinking of ways to spoil you while I'm there. Any special requests? Anything you can't easily get that I might be able to find for you? This is my first SP, so I'm excited to get started. You'll hear from me soon!
