Next is a lovely dish towel (which I am always in need of, anyway.) Thank you!

And then *gasp* no you didn't! Monster, this has to be one of your beautiful pieces of pottery. I am so honored! Thank you! How did you get that pretty leaf pattern in the bottom? So nice of you to send a yummy candle for to go in it, but I hate to cover the bottom with anything. Maybe I will hang it on the wall? The dish, that is, not the candle. That's going to be burning in my living room as soon as I can locate a lighter.

And of course, the Christmas Cock. Standing tall and proud. I've decided to name him Richard. He is so happy to have some friends with whom to hang around the kitchen. We all know who the real alpha is, here.

Umm who is making you eat/drink pee?  I have not had pee as a food or beverage so I cannot compare.
