Dani! Thank you SO MUCH for the Secret Santa gift! That cookbook is gorgeous, and the keychain is neat, and the bath thingy looks like it'll be great, and those candles are cool. I've never seen a bamboo-scented candle before, and actually, since I have no idea what bamboo actually smells like, I have no idea how authentic it is, but it does smell good.
Goodbye and Good Riddance 2005: the Year of the Penguin
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 2005? Don't think we've forgotten about you.

Yay! (Sorry it was so late -- I took the "slacker" part of the exchange seriously this year, as you can see.) I hope the cookbook is useful even though it's not strictly vegetarian.
I've never smelled fresh-cut bamboo either. I suppose you'd have to ask a panda how authentic it was...
billytea!!!!! I just got my package, and squeed out loud! How cool -- the coasters are adorable, and the playing cards are awesome - -54 unqiue Australian animals! So very wonderful. And I can't wait to play with my Zen garden -- toys for *me*! I'm blissed. Thank you so much! It was a gift well worth the wait, and you put a lot of thought into it. Thanks again, sweetie. Belated Happy Christmas to you, too!
I was going to get all caught up and post this in Bitches, but I see now that catching up there is a futile hope at this juncture, so...
THANK YOU Trudy for the wonderful picture and card and Russian tea cake. They were wonderful, and you sent too much, but I really appreciate it. More detailed thanks insent (a couple of days ago, but who's counting). You are absolutely the best.
I think that everyone who participated in the first round of the Buffista exchange has been gifted by now, but I'd like to be sure.
If anyone out there hasn't received a package yet, can they email me & let me know?
Thanks.
