Lany Freelove Cassandra Posted December 4, 2016 Author Share Posted December 4, 2016 I recd two packages from amazon. One I had ordered, one I had not. They were similar in size and weight, so I had no way of knowing which one was which. So I opened both Like I need an excuse. I always open right away. Not telling what I got as it might give clues to some who like to guess, but I'll post what it is on Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turinqui-Calima Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Got a small package in the mail yesterday with a nice little SS note. Not opening anything until Christmas (on the 24th). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbigski Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Found a suspicious package on my doorstep after lunch which said "Open Immediately". Smokehouse bacon! Says refrigerate for 28 days or freeze for up to six months. I'm taking the under. Going to pick one to have my dad cook up at his weekly brunch this Sunday, and probably make some sort of bacon themed appetizer for holiday parties this weekend. Yum!!!

I can't even type out of it. Anyway, lol Okay...phone's being weird. I'm out but I can't get rid of the quote. XD Yesterday I came home to two amazon packages and there aren't any kids at my home besides myself, I opened both! Lol One of the gifts was a Yoda tree ornament! I was so happy that I squealed! Ha! Both of my friends looked at me like "wtf, Cora" but no shame here lol I am so thankful! (I don't have a tree for him yet) The other was a cookbook! Another badass item for my kitchen!! Thank you so much SS! I always have great gifts from you all, every year! I can't thank you enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mlle. Zabzie Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 So there was a suspicious package waiting for me at home today, post marked Columbia SC - I'm pretty sure I know who it is, and thank you notes are forthcoming! Thank you secret santa for the beautiful ornament, the wonderful gifts for the kids, the yummy holiday treats, the pretty banner, and most of all the beautiful box it came in! (I'm like a cat :)). Totally made everyone's day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fragile Bird Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I apologize to whoever has me. I have had absolutely no Christmas spirit lately at all. I had more in the summer, when I found small things I'll be using as stocking stuffers. Also, I do Christmas with my best friends, and they have four adult children all of whom have significant others, Three years ago they decided to do one year here with them the next year the kids go to the families of the significant others. This is the away year, so no big Christmas dinner until December 30th. The good thing is I'll be able to get all my presents on sale. I hope I feel like shopping by then. Even worse, I don't know what I want. I have been spending the year clearing out stuff!! So, some of my Board friends were highly commending Anne Leckie's Ancillary Justice series. I have asked for volume 1 in another forum, and I would therefore ask for volume 2, Ancillary Sword. Or, as someone else mentioned, a cookbook from the Great British Baking show. I love chocolate, perhaps a toblerone bar or something like it? A pretty Christmas ornament? And a pretty Christmas card, perhaps a pop-up 3d one, that I could open up on my bookshelf in the living room. Socks are good too. We have winter... I suggest, because of the high cost of shipping, going to Amazon Canada for purchases. In the meantime, I will try to get my stuff out tonight.
