SDMB Secret Santa Exchange

[twickster]

I got mine today – no note or username, so I’m not positive who it’s from, but I think it’s Anaamika herself.

Yummy candy, and a cute little Christmas book. Thanks, Santa!

Santa came while I was out! Wheeeee!
Thank you monica! The fuzzy snowman is too cute, the earrings are gorgeous, and that beautiful scarf (that she knitted herself with fuzzy yarn) perfectly colored!
Thank you thank you thank you!

I’m glad you like it! I had to guess on colors, so I had my fingers crossed.

Twickster, yes, that’s me. Sorry! I forgot to put a note in. I do love cute little books like that, hope you enjoy, and there’s chocolate, and ribbon candy so if you don’t like any, just pass them on.

I wore it tonight when I went out in the frigid temps - nice and toasty!

I got a package yesterday, but I’m not sure which Doper it’s from. Mine will be go out today, if we can get to a post office, or Monday if we can’t.

Didja open it?

[Siege]

Not yet. Should I? And should the gentleman be present when I do?

Also, please add me to the sent list. It should arrive Tuesday or Wednesday.

[FairyChatMom]

Ya gotta add Susie Derkins to the received list - she got what I sent. Intact, even!

[congodwarf]

I should be on the sent list as well.

[Anaamika]

Updates!

I’m sorry that my gift is going to be late going out - it will go out on Monday though. There’s no excusing it–I mean, I’m just late, and I apologize. Please accept that, and it -should- get there before Christmas.

[whiterabbit]

I went to the post office today and I have mine! I haven’t had a chance to open it yet, though. Apparently even though I’d given out the wrong box number the nice post office people noticed and gave it to me. Let’s hear it for them! Now I’m dying to see what’s inside, but I won’t be able to do that until after 6…aaaaaa!!!

I promise I will get my gift together and out by Friday.

@Siege

Not yet. Should I?

If we’re voting, I vote yes.

And should the gentleman be present when I do?

I have no idea. Should he?

[whiterabbit]

Ooooh! Chocolatey goodies! Thanks, Gigi! (I’m assuming that’s you because the package is from “Santa Gigi”.) You have no idea how much I need chocolate right now!

[vivalostwages]

To A Certain Doper in Illinois:

UPS will attempt delivery again on Monday Dec. 17. Hope you’re home to sign for it!

[Thalion]

OK, I’m late posting because I haven’t been able to get online.

I’ve both sent my gift (hopefully in time to get to England by Christmas) and received mine.

Thank you very much, Eleanor of Aquitaine! I love the book, and the taste I got of the candy (before my wife got to it) was wonderful!

Yay! I transferred jobs starting last week too and it’s kicking my butt. I know the feeling! Luckily the new office has plenty of goodies lying around.

@congodwarf

I sent mine this morning. I forgot to ask when it would arrive. But, I sent another package last Thursday and it arrived at it’s destination on Saturday. So, I’m guessing Saturday. Monday at the latest. It’s going south (not that south narrows it down very much).

WOOT!! You mentioned in your note that I was hard to shop for, but you hit the nail on the head because now I have the bestest Secret Santa gift ever. It’s this, but “What Would Jane Post?” The tote bag is already striking up some witty conversations with the Jane Austen Action Figure.

And I’m honored to have two handmade items, a Santa face ornament and a cameo keychain. I love them all. Thanks!

Package shipped on Friday to the fine state of VA

I’m glad you like it. Hope you haven’t read it already!

[MsWhatsit]

Package shipped! I hope it makes it to the sunny West Coast sooner rather than later. Apologies for the delay!

I’m so glad you like everything. I was so excited when I found that tote! I’m not sure if it’s apparent to anyone but me but the cameo is actually a silhouette of Jane Austen. The input I had was from my sister and I don’t think she even knows who Jane Austen is.
