Secret Santa 2013: The Gifts!
 

My Santa is Sheldon. I know, youre already jelly. The gifts came unwrapped, so I have my excuse for opening them the instant the package arrived. And, no, Shel, I dont mind that they were not wrapped. I don't think I would have restrained myself anyway.

Thanks very much for these excellent presents. You picked excellently.

Hebe doesn't get in people's faces :( ;)

Wonderful!!

Shel gives good ...

I'm glad you like 'em! :-)
Merry Christmas!

Those look great!

Coolz !!

my gift arrived!
 

I think max is making the most of the jelly bellies, and the dragonfly is already on the tree! I better get my business cards ordered for the card holder too.

My ss has chosen to remain annonymous, but i know you live in ca, so i will figure it out. Your social conscience will give you up.

Thanks Ortho Doc !!!

You're welcome, zippyt! I hope the fly assortment is useful. Did the peppered beef jerky make it? Or did my chemobrain leave it out? I know I bought it ... :(

Its there , and the flys arejust right !!!

While listen to run against the wind. And drinking things that I shouldn't.
I opened the gift from COWGIRL. Thanks Lady.

I have received my gift, yet have not figured out how to put a picture here.... If I put it on my Facebook page, will everyone see it? LOVE the strainer!!!! My Dog ate mine a few months ago, and I was really pouty.. to have a new collapsible strainer makes me very happy. I also got some Christmas Decorations in my colour scheme and some glovies and and and and ...
A HUGE thank you to my secret santa, who, because of international mail ( I know who you are )

Oh and I would have absolutely ADORED the little dragon, just so you know...

Oh good. It got there. Merry Christmas!

I forgot to include that the cowgirl sent me homemade bird seed. But don't panic. I have made this in the oven. Long before computers, so I have no recipe. I think maybe she forgot about my fun with new teeth. GRANLOY maybe? Cowgirl don't let my redneck BS. up set ya.

:) You're welcome, Buster. I thought you got your new teeth and were crunching away at all sorts of things now! The recipe's here if you want it. Merry Christmas!!

well i just found out the UPS store sent the wrong thing to my SS2013 recip . So there will be a slight delay

My gift obviously hasnt arrived yet. Never fear though. It is on its way!

I didn't sign up of coarse because I couldn't afford to buy presents this year.. I'm glad IM liked my little poetry boy poem though..

And it's sooooo good. :yum:

My package arrived today from Canada. Thank you very much SS!

Canadian Aero bars and Coffee Crisp are the best; the American versions are nice, but not the same.

I got my SS gift today. WOOOHOOOO!!!! It's from U.K. so I'm guessing it's from Dana or Limey. Anyways, it's an adorable felt purse and a cute necklace. Thank you Secret Santa. :-D

Yay ... love that necklace. ;)

I returned to M'town today and found my Secret Santa gift waiting! I am the very lucky recipient of one of Aliantha's gorgeously decorated fruitcakes!! This cake is a work of art. I took a couple of extra photos to show some of the detail. It looks too pretty to eat but I had to taste it, and it's delicious. Fresh, lots of fruit, and yummy rum or brandy all through ... Ali, you're an artist. Thank you! :)

Thank God! I thought it would never arrive.

Glad you liked it. Xx

WOW.

I am totally jealous. :p:

Total Pro quality.

So is that the end of the gift posting for this year? Anyone still waiting on a present?

V, was your present okay when you opened it?

Thanks guys. I am just glad ortho liked it. Would you believe i havent had a single slice of any of my cakes this year? Neither of the other two were cut when i was around. Would love to see a pic of the inside if you have one ortho. :)

The inside of the cake or the inside of Ortho after eating the cake?

:D

that sounds like a great thread starter for Dwellar NSFW, 2014 Edition.

Come on ortho! How about a selfie?

The cake V. :)

:lol: Nice, Shel and V! But, sorry, you won't find me in the Dwellar NSFW 2014 thread.

Ali, I'm afraid I didn't get a pic of the inside. :redface:

Attachment 46393 Apparently dinner is on Cellar Santa sometime this week! Many thanks and love and hugs!

Presents are all A-OK, pics to follow.

V is not so good with pictures, is he?

I haven't recieved one yet but that will make it that much more fun. :-)

In fairness he's far from the worst on that score ;p

Blog, blog, blog, blog - blog, blog, blog, blog - BLOG ... wonderful blog!

Blog, wonderful blog, marvellous blog, glorious BLOG!

This is not a blog! This is the real thing.

Yay, Limey!

SS has arrived! But is it late for 2013 or early for 2014? lol
And I LOVE it all!
Especially the Sheldon Cooper Computer sitter! Going on my work computer! :-)

Yay!!!!!

Freaken UPS !!!!!!!!

So sorry Limey, but you were supposed to get this and not the pasta and spoon. I just registered a complaint with Amazon UK. I do hope this all comes in handy the next time you are snowed in.

Yeah but I like what I got! I'm using the spoon as a spoon rest and it hangs on the wall by the cooker. AND it's got cock. What more could I want! (We had some more of the yummy pasta yesterday, too!).

Limey & I had a chat about this, me being the courier and all.
I never looked at the original picture, and the way the spoon rest was packaged I really thought it looked like a bowl.

"X is going to be really cross with me" I said, "they specifically asked me to check that the item delivered was the right one."

Limey said then what she said above. She loved her prize as it was.
And she does has some gorgeous crockery already, but no cock spoon rests unto this arrived.

Still, I am cognisant of the fact I was asked to check something and got it wrong, irregardless of the happy ending.

Sorry Anon.

Nonsense. You went above and beyond, carrying all of that hundreds of kilometres. It was very close to the description of the item. My annoyance is entirely with Amazon UK. I know that they're not Harrods, but one can still expect them to get an order right.

I did look over the spoon gift basket in the online store. Didn't notice the cock. It does fit in with the Cellar meme.:p:

Thank you so much for doing this and all of the Secret Santa this year, Sundae. You've been a dear.

The other puzzle, anon, is why Amazon UK didn't recognise my postcode, when I am a regular customer of theirs. And yes, Sundae is a darling for fitting your generosity into her suitcase!
