Zip, for heavens sake, why would you say I'm not speaking to you? I speak to everyone. Life is too short not to spread the joy. Especially at this time of year. Cheers, lynne

My gift got delivered after 3 stops in two states to travel halfway across one. Hopefully it's not dripping.
Still waiting for Santa to bring me something though. :-)

Lynne,
No assuming here. The facts speak for themselves, or maybe I have the wrong # and e mail address.?

When I got back from the east coast, my husband told me he had opened the box that was delivered for me so that he could put my gift into the wine cooler.
I ran to get the box out of the recycling bin to see if I could guess who my Secret Santa is, but the sneaky sender had it shipped directly from a winery, so I was thwarted in my detection.
I held off looking at my gift until this morning, since I'm headed out of town for a few days and just couldn't wait until after Christmas.
Wow! I was blown away by the very generous and wonderful gift my Santa sent me! Here's a photo:
This is a perfect gift for me. Two of my favorite varietals. I would love to know who sent me this great gift. Santa, if you don't mind unmasking yourself, send me a message!
This annual gift exchange is such a great part of the Forum. My own giftee has never posted here, (I don't love the term "lurker" - how about "Silent Partner"), but I hope that his participation in Secret Santa encourages him to post something, sometime.
Best Wishes, everyone! Phyl

Oh it came it came....yeah....
Oh it's a book, yes it's a book, I wonder if it is a climbing guide to somewhere, no maybe it's an arty book with astoundingly beautiful pictures of the outdoors... oh oh oh it's wrapped so well, where is that special cutter I have to open really hard to open stuff...the one I once pinched my boob in (story for another time)....oh wait, it's from someone that lives in Berkeley....oh this is going to be soooo cooooool and radikal..
My polar bear with the rat's face is all excited.
From Berkeley, from Zander...a book? I should think not.... but instead a beautiful, hand made work of art. It is so lovely with a wonderful card and Holiday sentiment. What makes it even better is that I love to turn wood and last year I was on blood thinners and the Dr. suggested I stay away from sharp tools and flying bowls (ok so I'm not that good of a wood turner)... just seeing this beautiful piece of wood work has me dusting off my wood lathe.
Thank you so much Zander...Hopefully we can meet up in person one of these days. Our boat is just across the Estuary and perhaps we can take you out for a sail one of these days!
A lovely sentiment
Susan

hey there say, all...
oh my... i was waiting for the rest of lolli's gift to arrive, and INSTEAD
another box came. :O
seems it was a huge surprise, didn't expect it...
so i'd reckon it is to answer a small prayer of mine:
wishing to smell the wonders of pine-branches in my house, :)
oh, i just LOVE it!:
after a bit of wondering, i finally checked the box really good, and found out WHO IT WAS FROM by the order-label, as it came from a gift-company...
kind of like having an EXTRA "almost secret santa", :))
won't put the person on the spot, unless they want to
chip in here, as, it is a person full of good deeds to other folks,
so i want to be polite, just in case, i'd be out of line "flashig the ol' flashlight" at the giver, :))
here is the gift and NOW MY ONE-YEAR HERE, IS CHIRSTENED WITH PINE!
i love real pine, you all... wow... smells so good..
i will light the candles on christmas eve...
*the grandkids were here too, and enjoy setting it up!!!
well, after this, i got to go nap a bit, been up too early, for them to come over... i am typing much of this backwards and etc, ...and then refixing, and it is hard on the ol' brain and eyes, ... i think i ma raedy to flaa alseep, :O
i am NOT going to fix any more sentences (except this one) :))
THANK you so very kindly, extra gift-giver... :)
i really do appreciate this:
:)
say, lolli... the PIECE did not come today...
most likely it will come tomorrow... :)

Thank you Frozenwaterfalls!
I received a wonderful array of loose tea(along with a tea ball) and some Clif wine.
We dug into the tea (which is great!) and hopefully we'll be trying out the wine soon enough :D
Thanks again and merry Christmas!
