Can you imagine some of the awesome things that mail employees see? I wouldn't get any work done in the processing department...I'd be too busy snapping photos of everything that came across my face. I'd be yelling "Stop the machines!!!!"
This envelope is too pretty, she's very talented.
The rhubarb looks delish but I've never tried it...enjoy!
