Took a trip to Shinjuku Isetan, which is always a perfect place for inspiration. And now shopping is done. With a few small items shipped earlier while on a business trip.
Off to the post office tomorrow.

Received my First secret santa gift from the UK 
The gifts were not wrapped so I had the perfect excuse to peek in
Some Tea and a card as well as two underground coffee mugs the coffee mugs will make my morning coffee so much cooler
Looking forward to tasting the teas though I am not much of a tea drinker I do like to sample new flavors.
Edit: now more confused the card was a really cool raised london shiloutte but the card said to go to bellroy.com to understand my gift better but no mention of any of the gift items there?
Thank you secret santa

Just PM-ed Wharvey that I shipped both my SS gifts. It took a while to receive everything as I wanted to find one of a kind personal gifts. I hope my giftees like the gifts! I also received an e-mail from one of my giftors letting me know that I should be expecting 2 packages.

Got a parcel in the mail today from Finland. I am not at home until the 16th so sadly it will remain closed up until then, but if it is from you thank you very much and I cant wait to see what is inside!

A package arrived yesterday from MissyDarlin (oops, I said DevilDawg but his email said the first is arriving on the 8th). The presents are under the tree. Trying very hard not to open mine. My daughter was also very excited that one has her name on it. There were some essential oils and then I can't identify the others since they are covered with tissue paper and I don't want to peek. The one for my daughter is wrapped.
Very excited for the essential oils !

Great Presents from my Secret Santa
Received my first present last night and it was FANTASTIC. My wife and son joined in the action.
We do a lot of cooking as a family and the Idaho Power cook book, copper pot (great size for sauces), and infused oils will be put to use tonight. The candies and truffles were raided last night - both delicious.
My wife claimed the memory foam neck cushion.
I managed to hold onto the Sharper Image travel umbrella.
We will all enjoy the Idaho calendar (beautiful pictures) and the Boynton calendar (great laughs).
The final element, My initials will go on the bookshelves.
Great gifts that we all enjoyed opening. When I started doing Secret Santa years ago my family thought I had gone off the deep end. We now all share in the joy.
Many thanks to my secret Santa!!!

I received a package in the mail today! What could it be?
Hmm, looks suspiciously like a camera bag.
It is a camera bag! And with a bunch of other presents on the inside! I'll open these on Christmas!
I did read the card though. Thank you so much, financialhippie!
My first giftee already received their gifts, and has posted here. As for my second giftee, I'm still shopping!

I received a $25 Starbucks gift card! Thank you Secret Santa!! I cannot wait to get that cute polar bear or red fox coffee mug from Starbucks!! Oh my Secret Santa just had his/her elves deliver another beautiful gift of a cookbook entitled "Vegan Chocolate". I am vegan and love chocolate! This is a very thoughtful gift and will be enjoyed for many days to come! Thank you so much!
