Box from Robin -- picture included!

Robin aka Blaze LaFlame sent me this powerfully packed goodie box! I love this month's theme! I received a terrific scarf/hat pattern and two Big Skeins of lime green yarn to make them. She tucked in a wood crochet (have I mentioned I adore wooden hooks) in a size I didn't have, either! Also inside were some baking goodies ... a cute oven mitt, beautiful mug and lots of tea bags to help me stay warm. PLUS, the gem of it all, are some recipes from Robin's house to mine. I hope I didn't forget anything. Thank you so much!!
