    I love to send notes to my grandfather. We live over 1000 miles apart now, but we're still close. He has Alzheimer's now, so having my words in print means that he'll be able to remember them.

    Cool giveaway! I just recently started reading Marta (where have I been??). I love her stuff.

    I want to start writing love notes to my husband.

    My Great-Granny just made 100 this past December and she is the one that taught me the wonders of hand written notes to people you love.

    I love to write letters & notes to an old University friend of mine that has now moved to California. For 20-somethings, it's such a unique way to stay in touch. :)

    I write notes to my husband and children - I have boxes of letters and notes my husband and I have exchanged over the past 31 years.

    I'd say my mom or any one I'm sending a thank you note to. Thanks so much, Maureen (jnomaxx at hotmail dot com)

    I really enjoy writing notes to my mother, grandmother, and sister! They don't live near me, so it's nice to send them something special every now and then to let them know that I still care!

    I wish I had time to hand write more notes...my mom still has the love notes I wrote to her as a young girl. She uses them as book marks. I will pick up one (because she reads many at a time) of the books she is reading and tucked inside will be a note from me...usually asking for forgiveness for something I had done...or just lots of love. So I guess I would have to say my mom.

    I love to write cards, I like to cheer up my girlfriends by sending them cards with a bag of scented teas, like cherry or pineapple tea. I love to send cards to my best friend in London knowing she reads them on the train to work and leaves them between the pages of the books she's reading. I love to write recipes and send them to my niece on cards to get her started on her homemaking adventure. And to my mamma, there never needs to be a reason, just because is enough. :)

    Lovely, lovely! It would be wonderful to have these so I could leave handwritten notes in my husband's lunch to brighten his day.
