I'm pretty sure my SS is the real Santa....or a Christmas Angel
I LOVE my gift!!!! No, love is an understatement.
My SS sent me 12 individually wrapped presents, each with a note on it, for the 12 days of Christmas. I hope I wasn't supposed to actually open them each day, because I got way too excited and opened them all at once. Among my treasures were thin mints, potted basil seeds, grilling spices, silicone baking cups, bath salts, cheese and crackers, a toy for my puppy, a candle, ALL KINDS OF GOODIES! And last but not least, day 12 was a shaker with things to make Cranberry Cosmos!!!
(crappy picture because my camera is busted and I only have my phone)
As if that wasn't thoughtful enough, there was also a card that made me cry. She told me I am kind and that my loved ones are watching me this Christmas. It even made my mom cry when I told her about it.
I have been having a hard time getting in the Christmas spirit this year, what with work and BFF's wedding stresses, and missing my Grampy and Auntie, but SS, this did the trick. I can't tell you how much I appreciate this gift. Thank you, SO MUCH. I love you!!!
Okay, now out yourself so everyone knows how amazing you are!
PS - Elle & Peek, my SS totally wins ;P

I adore you, csousa!!
Someone once you told you..."Just being around you makes me feel like peace."
Well- that's true.
I can't tell you how much comfort you brought to me when I was moving from California and you said, "when you arrive in Colorado, there we will be, right where you left us
I hope that you can savor the Christmas spirit for the next couple weeks- it's such a special time of year- and your Grampy and Auntie would want you to enjoy it.
I love you very very much! Oh...and I'm your Secret Santa. LOL.

How did you know it? LOL...I was even super secret with the return address- it showed you as the return address. Haha. And I disguised the writing on the box so it didn't match the card I sent out earlier in the week. Hehe.

I just had a sneaking suspicion it was you - you are easily one of the most thoughtful people I have ever had the privilege to know :)
[QUOTE]That is incredibly thoughtful and sweet, but no less than you deserve, Sous. I'm really proud and happy to be part of a community like this, even if I didn't participate in SS. :) Warm fuzzies all around!
