I ADORE my secret santa, whoever she is!!!!!
The concierge in my apartment building nearly gave the jig up when he handed me my package...He said, "hey, you have a box from Seattle. From a ---..." I promptly cut him off, not wanting to know more! Seattle doesn't narrow things down too much in the YLF world, afterall.
But onto the gift, which is seriously one of the most thoughtful compilations I've ever seen. The first item in it was a CD containing a spoken letter from my santa. This revealed not only that she has an absolutely beautiful speaking voice (melodious and modulated), but cataloged the four, yes four, items in my box.
1. A chocolate reindeer
2. A selection of handcreams that smell divine and fit perfectloy in any purse
3. A huge box of dog biscuits for Reva (her favourite brand, no less)
4. A gorgeous, super-long strand of silvery-grey pearls with matching earrings.
Secret Santa, I'm blown away by your generosity, thoughtfulness and attention to detail. You've made my holidays!
For real guys, is this not the best tradition ever? Reading all these postings makes me beyond happy, and choosing the gift for my person was the shopping highlight of the season so far. I'm furious with her local post office for throwing unwelcome wrenches into these plans by being closed the day she went to collect the gift, but can't wait for her to open it when she is able to claim it.
