I got a wonderful gift certificate to Sur La Table in the mail from my SS! What's even better is that an extended family member works for an associated company so we get a holiday friends and family discount coming up so it will go even further!!!
Thank you so much!!!!!!

Well, the gifts to my 3 recipients have been mailed and it appears that at least one has arrived and has been well received. I'm so glad!!!
So far I've only been getting "stalked" via the USPS by my SS who obviously is quite familiar with me.
I wish I had as much imagination!
A merry Christmas to all of you (and Happy Chanukah)!

I received a very nice gift of two CDs from my SS - he wasn't so secret about it - but saves me the mental stress of trying to play Guess Who? But what was really nice is that he's offered additional clips of songs he has in his own collection (once he sorts them - that is). Top notch

My gifts are on their way to me for final assembly and a bit of extras/combining items.
My SS sent me a gorgeous book on the Hearst Castle, along with free admission there. I can't wait to see it!

Thank you Santa!! You couldn't have chosen a better gift - well, how can you possibly go wrong with a basket full of chocolate?!!

My gifts have been sent to my two recipients with promises they arrive before Hannukah/Christmas/Kwanzaa begins. What a fun time picking things out for gifts!
Wharvey, thanks again for organizing this fun event!

My Secret Santa put me out of my misery & confessed in a PM who it was - and the sneakiness of getting the stuff under the tree w/o me seeing it. It was an elaborate plan
I haven't checked tracking on what I sent to my SS recipient, but I'm assuming the person received it by now. I'll check this week just to make sure & if not, beat up on the shipper to get it there before Xmas.
Cheers.
