That book looks awesome! Looks like I need to add that to my Amazon wishlist lol.

A big thank you to my Secret Santa for the rechargeable portable phone charger along with Marriott e-gift card. I am aware my Secret Santa went above-and-beyond to make this happen and it is greatly appreciated.

Merry Christmas everyone!

I received a few gifts from my Santa, and they were all great!
The survival kit was pretty cool. I really appreciate the thought that went into this gift. I'm really looking forward to trying the Beer Syrup next time I make pancakes!
Thank you!

Finally home where my gift was waiting! It contained a Winnipeg t-shirt, assorted Winnipeg chocolates, maple syrup (first time I'll have that on my pancake!), a much-needed travelset of handtools (small scissor, nail clipper/file etc.), a bag of Sumatra coffee and a laminated map of Canada. Really enjoyed the various items, thank you very much Bravada04!

Received an awesome set of gifts from Denmark. Got an awesome model plane, a cool travel book, and an assortment of fun Scandinavian foods (the candied nuts are delicious!). Loved that everything was also individually wrapped. Thank you Secret Santa!!

Received a bunch of packages from Santa a few days ago, sorry that I've not had chance to say thanks so far - firstly as was overwhelmed secondly getting everything into the car and driving across Europe!

Santa was unbelievably generous this year OMG! Deadpool an instant lifetime's favourite film and now I have the monopoly! The aircraft skin keyring are amazingly well thought out and my eldest boy nicked one immediately for his school bag

I let the boys open theirs, as my brother in law and his wife are both Chemistry doctorates it has given them something to do with the boys and explain a fuel cell !! They're super excited :)

Finally the cook book, I've a lot of respect for Jamie Oliver and his cookbooks are always so easy to follow so this will be well thumbed in the lead up to the better weather

Merry Christmas one and all

I have listened to several podcasts about the molasses flood but didn't know there is a book. Must have!!

I got some yummy coffee and some choc covered espresso beans from a secret santa - my dad already grabbed the coffee and used it for this morning's coffee and the coffee beans are on my desk for the mid afternoon pick me up

Thanks Santa!!!!

Same here!

I will post the author and publisher of Dark Tide, the molasses flood book later today. It has some amazing pictures in it, too!

Happy dance!!
