Goodbye and Good Riddance 2004: Well, I Wasn't Expecting That.
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2004? Don't think we've forgotten about you.

Deb, Deb, Deb, Deb, Deb, it's here!!!
Do you know I've never tried pesto? It's one of those things I've always meant to get around to. My secret santa sent me a jar of pesto sauce! She read my mind! Oh, but that's not all. She also sent me these adorable little bottles of balsamic vinaigrette and garlic oil, and a tiny jar of stone ground mustard (I LOVE THAT STUFF!), a bag of dried mango, some lovely little non pareils (which Kara has sampled [as have I] and declared them perfect). Some little green frogs for the babies; chocolate coins in holiday foil! A package of chocolate from the netherlands (cunningly wrapped to look like miniature gold bars) and a small irish whiskey cake (I've been told I'm sharing that with Greg)! a dark chocolate filled wafer cookie that looks like sin in a slender package, AND a package of four lovely little tea light candles in gorgeously frosted purple, red, orange and yellow glass holders.
So COOL. I'm all bouncy. THANK YOU! (And the card says more is on the way. Wow.)

Deena, that package sounds scrumptious. Lucky you, having deb pick the stuff, you know it's gonna taste great.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
It got there! WOOOOOT!
Deena, bebe, this is the silly package. The big prezzie is on its way. I'm betting Tuesday, but if it shows up? I'm-a happy.
And did you like the card? On, Fluffy!
And of course, I couldn't exactly ask to see your entry in the database....

Our wings are not tired.
Mmmm. I love pesto. I bought some at the olive oil place deb took us to when I was out there for NillyFest. Reading Deena's post has made me hungry.
Evil-Ex-SIL that my shit-for-brains brother seems to be getting on with again is making dinner today. She is evil, but a damn good cook. Many Italian treats await us.

I love the card.
I went out for last minute shopping... it took more than a minute.
I forgot to add that there were more pretty tree ornaments in the package too. Kara's considered, but decided these aren't as good for stabbing.

Laura! THANK YOU for the lovely yarn. I adore the color and the soft and it'll be so fun to knit with.
Thank you so much!

Sail, the PO Box means I'll get them when I get back from visiting my in-laws. Very cool to know. Thanks!
