Callie, are those calling birds? Or Callie's birds? Anyway, there seem to be at least four of them, and they're not French hens.
Those of Nordic ancestry may open their loot this evening. Those of orthodox descent may have to wait until January 6th.

Ha! Momma bird removes bells so they don't ingest the ringers. You evil plan would have been thwarted. :) There are five here - Henri (age 32), Ferne, Clover, Grace and Gabbie. A very happy flock. Thanks much Fattrad and thanks to St. Nick!

Looks like Crimpie and I had a "push the upload trigger" at the same time. Those pictures of the birds are really great! Thanks, Blu, yep, good times. Fattrad, not so evil, is your package still ticking?
Big fun, family over any minute, Peace.

YAY!!!!
Glad you like it, Joey! I swear, I L.O.V.E. mine. The GSI's are the best I've found, and believe me, I've put several brands to the test over the years.
I'm waiting 'til tomorrow to open mine...
Peaceful, restful, warm and merry Holidays to you, and to everyone!!

Big Stoke here in fogtown!
Look at this completely awesome craft-paper card:
That would have totally been beyond expectations, but crimpergirl sent as well some prescient gifts
which will be used in the very first climbing trip I take in the new year. These are my favorite sizes of stoppers, too, and it will be great to have them protecting my life.
I had the privilege to chat and climb with my Secret Santa during a Facelift a few years back, and she is one of my favorite people.
Thank you and Merry Christmas!!!

Well, I opened my present today. Inside the ackage was a nice box, wrapped with pretty black handmade looking paper, but SOMEONE chewed it when I wasn't looking.
Yup, Dumpling, my brother's dog whom I am dogsitting.
He swears it wasn't him, but I know better.
Inside the box (still safe from the little monster) were some totally delicious looking vegan soaps (Lavender and lavender chamomile) and... some facewash!! I don't know how my secret santa knew, but I'm kind of obsessed with facewashes, seriously. Love it!!
I used it this morning and now I smell all lavender-y and it's sure to help me stay calm on the steep ice today! And I'll definitely be clean when I go to my friends' for dinner today... I actually just ran out of soap and was looking at having to use my boyfriend's Zest, ick. Yahoo!!!!!

Yay! I was stoked when I was awarded Murcy as my Secret Santa Recipient. We met at my first facelift, climbed a bit and I got to visit with him again when I was recently in SF.
You too are a favorite of mine. and I'm so happy you like the goodies. They were absolutely chosen with you in mind. It makes my day to know you like them. :)
