The tracking thing on the package I sent says it’s still in transit, and that it was supposed to have arrived… yesterday. So I don’t really know what’s going on. 
Wanted you to have something for your tree (if you have one) and something for Christmas, too. 
Glad you liked it.

Package received! But I think my secret santa wants to remain secret. I have a real name, but I can’t find anything with the a SDMB username.
I got a warm, cozy, and colorful crocheted blanket and some really dark chocolate.

Thanks so much to whomever you are!
Yes, mailed mine today – the PO says it will get there Monday. fingers crossed
It’s not gift-wrapped inside, but the tape on the outside is festive as all hell.
Wow, they sent you a cat? That’s pretty cool!
Ooh! Maybe next year, I’ll get a pony!
Sorry, I thought I added the username to the return address. Glad to see it got there. I like to crochet, and I also like chocolate and cats!
Thanks Baker! One of my other cats is curled up on it now. Happy Holidays!
package has landed, repeat package has landed. lovely things arrive in small packages.
thank you datax, i love the wee box. it is more complex than any other i’ve seen. i was able to open it, and the snowman was a cute surprize.
thank you again!
No, he’s mine… although I have considered shipping him someplace on occasion.
Glad you liked it - that is actually the simplest one they sold :). I’ve seen them that require 50+ moves to open - it was on an episode of the Big Bang theory (season 2 episode 17). They are called Japanese puzzle boxes.
Unfortunately - while looking for yours - I found the store on eBay that sold them was within walking distance of where I was going the next day (glad I noticed the address before ordering it). Needless to say I’ve now got a small collection and planning on getting more :). The ones I have now only go up to 12 moves, but I’ll be going back for the more complicated ones this week.
Tracked my package, and it still says “in transit” and that it was supposed to have arrived some days ago. I’m worried now that it wasn’t packaged up properly by the dimbulb at the post office (this was the same lady who thought New Jersey was in New Zealand…) In any case, if the package doesn’t get there soon, I may have to go out and re-buy all the items and send them again.
Did you send it Priority Mail? That comes with $50 insurance. I bet it’s just delayed because of the holidays, though. *fingers crossed *
The one I sent is supposed to be delivered today. I think I’m more excited about that than I am about getting presents!
I got a package! I haven’t opened it yet because it just came and I can’t decide if I want to wait. But thanks to whoever sent it!
I couldn’t wait! It was a Bon Appetit Vintage Poster Art Calendar that will look great in my kitchen AND I can frame the images after the year is out!
Thank you Twickster!!! I love it!
Ah, good – I was a little nervous about it because I was kind of riffing off your letter to Santa rather than directly fulfilling it. I thought it was such a cool calendar, though – and we all can use another calendar, right? Glad you liked it!
And I was actually coming in to say that purplehorseshoe is a kick-ass Santa herself! She sent me two skeins of lovely soft yarn (olive green and rust orange – they’ll look great together!), a bar of MmmURGENCY dark chocolate (and I’m feeling an emergency coming on right now), a pair of black sparkle Ear Mitts (ear muffs without the band, you just slide 'em onto your ears directly), and a great card with a photo of the Sugar Plum Terrier on the front. All of this in a box that does, indeed, look like it was fingerpainted by a demented toddler. Thank you very much – you did great!
I got mine on Friday! I have no plans on waiting until Xmas, but we are downstate at the in-laws’ so I didn’t have time. It is a giant box from Michigan with hello kitty wrap. I’ll open it on Monday but I just wanted to post that I got it.
It is too big! I am excited to open it!
If I’m found in a sugar high later today it’s because I got a package from Silvorange! Yay!!! She has sent me all kinds of chocolate candies from Kentucky, a miniature Louisville Slugger bat, and a Violet Crumble bar that I’m ***almost ***ashamed to admit is already open and halfway eaten! Oh, and a set of miniature measuring spoons, with “a pinch”, a dash", and “a smidgen”
Thank you so much, it is all very awesome. I hope you didn’t break the bank.
I’ve always wanted to visit Louisville, as that’s where Churchhill Downs is and I was horse crazy as a kid.
I’m not surprised the fleur-de-lis is the city symbol, considering it’s for Louisville.
If you are in the exchange next year people should fight to be gifted by you. I’m going to keep the candy for myself, thank goodness I live alone. Thank you, thank you, thank you, you are the best gift giver!
Hola! I will be away from home for a few days. I told the neighbor to be on the lookout for SecretSanta. So, all should be well. Just won’t be able to make the package received post until I return.
