  94. Cute box! I have been wanting to make one of these -- like the ribbons on the side.

    ReplyDelete
  95. I really like the box but the candy-chocolate makes me nauseous. I know, I cant be human but it does. actually I think its the sweetness as anything sweet makes me ill. Why do they put sugar in cheerios anyways. I used to love eating them out of th ebox and now they are too sweet.

  96. I wish u a HAPPY B-DAY!
