Goodbye and Good Riddance 2014: so long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, good bye...  

Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering.

Buh bye, 2014.

I just got a package from Indiana Hawaii! With delightful smelling Kona coffee. So at last my Secret Santa is revealed. Muchas gracias, DebetEsse!

I'm not sure - I got one part of a present and was told (through Elfster) that the rest of the present would come after the new year. I don't know if it got sent and went missing, or if it didn't get sent, or if the beer caramels are the whole present.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Yay! I have not yet sprung for full-Kona coffee for myself, so you'll have to let me know how it is.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I'm actually not sure. I got a bag for my dad as well, separately. and I don't know which Mom sent.

I did not receive mine yet but was told that it'll be sent late. It's OK.

I was informed that I have a package from the U.S. waiting in the post office. I'll only be able to go there in two days, but yay! Thank you!

This is a PSA: Sue is lovely and awesome! Pass it on.

I got back home for the weekend early due to extreme weather conditions, to find Sue's gift - and there was much rejoicing. Sue graciously sent me the Hark! A Vagrant book, a book from MyHandboundBooks, and no less than three different kinds of candies: Maple leaves from maple sugar, maple roasted hazelnut chocolate, and something called chicken bones that I will examine soon, hoping and I am brave enough.

Sue also sent me two plastic snowflakes, and wrote that she wanted to send me some snow, but was afraid that it won't make it here. Well, the extreme weather conditions I've mentioned in the beginning of this post? It's now snowing outside. Thank you, Sue, for bringing me joy, presents, books, sweets, and yes - snow, both real and plastic.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

I think Sue *made* it snow!

Also, chicken bones (the candy) are good!
