Leesewzany, I've enjoyed your posts here and will miss you. I would never dream of receiving a gift and not thanking the giver. As the giver, it's not that I expect a thank you, but it's wonderful to know that the recipient liked the gift or, at the very least, that they appreciated the thought and effort that went into it. But as they say "it is what it is" and nothing is required of any participant here beyond signing up and sending a package.
