Sorry, VunderBob - I was rather late sending it and it is coming a long way (from Switzerland). It should arrive any day now.
I believe all senders have now reported in, although there are still some recipients waiting on deliveries from international reindeer.
If I had known the problem was geography, I would not have grumped so much. Thanks for the heads up. BTW, it wasn’t in today’s mail.
Just waiting for Mighty_Girl to get her’s. Hopefully it’ll be worth the extra time it takes to get there.
I just got back from my dad’s and the accumulated mail was delivered today and in it was a lovely box from freckafree! I got some lovely handmade jewelry (earrings and a frog pin/hair bob) and some much needed and lovely smelling hand cream. It’s so cold here that my cuticles split so it will be well used. Thanks much, freck! (If I could find my camera in my suitcase, pictures might follow.)
Glad you liked them, Surly Chick!
We have been coming and going and crisscrossing the country and are finally home.
FairyChatMom, I am ever so glad your gift arrived. As I said, it was returned once because the zip code I got in the email was missing a number. Nobody to blame but myself there, I should have noticed right away, instead I mailed it and it was returned from the capital (good thing it didn’t make it all the way to the US). I was on the way out when this happen, so I just Googled the address and guessed the missing number.
I am glad you liked it. The book is of my authorship, and the scarf is hand-made and finger-knitted (loose loops because of the thickness of the yarn).
Dear Faithfool, you, mean person you! You made me all teary. Did you go around reading my posts throughout the years? Gosh, you hit it out of the park. I made a picture and will post it later to make everyone envious. I’d give you a big kiss if I could.
ETA: I know FF shipped my gift very early, there just anyone to deliver it to here. So there.
Introduce “wasn’t” where appropriate in that last sentence.
Oh, I’m soooo glad you liked it! Let’s just say I did a little investigating. Everything was okay then? I wasn’t positive you’d like the shirt, but Green Eggs and Ham is one of my favorites, so I thought we couldn’t be that far apart. Again, enjoy your stuff and make something awesome from the magazine, then post pics so we can oooh and ahhh over it.
Merry Christmas!!
Num num num! My package from Anaglyph in Switzerland just arrived within the last 15 minutes. The homemade cookies were excellent, and I loved the Switzerland t-shirt. My father’s family has a geographic origin from the German-Swiss border, so that’s extra special.
I also think my wife and I are not the only ones to enjoy the cookies. The box was re-taped, and the bag inside had a hole in it. Hungry customs officials, perhaps? :dubious:
You betcha I want the recipe(s), too.
Many thanks, and happy new year!
Hmm, I saw a commercial like that.
Just be glad they didn’t strip-searched you.
My snowy day was brightened considerably by my secret santa package KinkiNipponTourist.
Many, many thanks to her for her thoughtfulness. I love the figurine and food items.
Anaglyph, if you’re still checking this thread, please PM me. Thanks.
