Dear friends. I'll return to the workshop erev Thanksgiving (the night before). Our office has received numerous PM's that are unrelated to what our job responsibilities are. Only PM me if you need to ask a question of your Santee.
Thank you.

I can confirm receipt of a package on Sunday. This time of year is dangerous bc I never know if the packages are mine, mine for other people, or mine from my Santas! Lol
I dont know if its a part of a gift or the whole gift- i
played it safe and had someone else peek inside (their gift hasnt been shipped yet so no way its theirs) and they seemed confused. I would have thought you already had one of those was the response. Im almost positive it came from the wish list- thanks Santa- but checking the list will ruin the surprise.
to all my Santas: I open presents closer to Christmas. As in typically not before Christmas Eve unless told otherwise. And please dont feel like you HAVE to confine yourselves to that wish list- I made it for inspiration but I really love surprises so feel free to be creative!!

Looks like I am lucky #2 as the 2nd recipient of my FT Secret Santa gift from a 2nd time Secret Santa. Erik came through with some amazing goodies, including ones that my son loves (pilot hat and model AS airplane). There are a lot of goodies including mugs, green tea cookies, cocoa, chocolates, scarf, postcards, hat, and a model airplane.
Thanks for the creative gifts and for wrapping them all!
P.S. I was excited to see a fellow Crane & Co. aficionado.

One gift in, one gift out
I am once again in for 2 Secret Santa gifts this year. One has already been sent (and received according to the tracking information), while on Monday I was also very pleased to receive this (even if the pic I took came out rotated):
Being a Buffalo Bills fan is not easy, and hasn't been for a while. But this autographed 16x20 pic from the glory days is awesome! Thank you very much Santa!
ALSO: I'm a little stumped due to lack of hints provided by my other giftee. Rumor has it there may be a couple elves around here who are good with ideas for some of the members? If so, a private message would be appreciated ;-)

2. A lovely beach towel
3. Shrinky Dinks for my daughter
4. A book, No Elephants for my daughter
thanks Santa!
Im on my phone so pics to follow.

I'm always up for learning more about wines or trying wines from the Czech Republic and similar.

They are also the exclusive supplier of the paper for US paper currency (and other countries well). They were the ones that developed the lenticular strip on the $100 bills. A few years ago, I had the opportunity to take an exclusive tour of their factory in Dalton, MA led by Douglas Crane himself.
