So my second Secret Santa wasn't so secret to me - turns out we've met through other FT events! 
Thanks for everything! The socks are exactly what I meant and will come in handy now that I'm signed up for the SunRun! The puzzle is perfect - somewhere I haven't been - and I can never have too many mittens or books (Ellen should be a good cheerful read). What really made me laugh though, was the portable charger - it's almost as though you could see me sitting on the floor in HND desperately trying to steal enough of a charge to get through Tokyo day before yesterday!
You're definitely on for that beer! Let me know when you're on this side of the country/water next!

Just came back from a trip to this beautiful gift from ScGhost0. Tons of great goodies knocking a serious dent in my christmas list by hitting pretty much everyone of my interests! Now i just need to make sure the google home mini doesn’t do anything my wife tells it to...

From my Secret Santa in Vancouver I received a beautiful book, Vancouver Confidential and two beautiful Spielgelau glasses.
And amazing Palais Des Thes - a gift that will be shared equally with Mrs DevilDawg1960 as we are both big fans a great tea.
Thanks to all three of my Santas
I have also completed the gifts for my folks with the last gift scheduled to arrive Christmas Day.
Thanks, too, to Wharvey for making this another great year.

I arrived home from work after two LONG stress filled work days and little sleep to find a package with the most amazing gifts from Atomic Lush! She had reached out to WHarvey to ask for additional ideas. She really hit a home run! I got beautifully wrapped cookies, a lovely bottle of black truffle oil, 2 very pretty tea towels and a wonderful package of socks. I have been asking for socks for the last several years, but my pleas have fallen on deaf ears until now. These socks are so fun!
One of the really amazing things is that one of the tea towel sets matches my somewhat unusual kitchen backsplash. I love everything that you sent-thank you!!!!!

I came home from my business trip last night to find a Secret Santa gift waiting for me! Squee! I got a scratch-off map of the US so I could document the states where I have visited the capitols. I'm up to 34 capitols so I've got a lot to scratch off. Thanks Secret Santa!

The anticipation was killing me since Tuesday but finally got my package today from my Secret Santa.
Two very nice bottles of wine a Chianti and Barolo.
I’m such a wino and absolutely adore Italian reds. Surprisingly, never had a Barolo yet. Will def age it for about two more years.
Thanks,
Santa - even though pretty sure I figured out who you are.

Just a quick update: I got packages from two of my Secret Santas which I won’t open until I get back from a trip, next week.
One from someone in NC whom I believe I might have been a Santa for in years prior, and another from someone else in Denmark I’m really looking forward to opening them!

My second (and last) gift got to me today (just before leaving for the airport)! The box has got perfect items for my quiet nights! This Santa actually sent me a questionnaire and obviously chose these gifts very carefully. I am soooo happy to have participated in this year's!!! Merry Christmas to all flyertalkers!!!
