So far I am up to number 7. My story is great and so fun. Two of my boys are sitting here in suspense with me. They loved the seasoning for the deer meats. Also I have a stunning cup fill with teas. Sipping away as I type. Along with it machine cover, basket, some batik FQ'S, thread catcher, magnets, books, a beautful pink and grey hat, gummy bears, chocolate, and the flying geese ruler I wanted. Thanks so much SS so far still have a bunch to open so back to my story.

Wow! Billie Jean thank you so much for such a thoughtful box of goodies. There's so much fabric. I'm mad about the batiks and the pawprint and doggie fabric is so cute. I love the crocheted dish cloth(my step mother makes these for me too and I love them). The potholder, towel and spatula-you can never have enough kitchen stuff-I'm sticking by that. A sweet guardian angel pin, a wild pair of slipper socks(just up my ally)-after all who likes boring socks? There are ornaments-love the snowmen as long as they aren't on my front lawn...LOL. As I kept pulling things out of my box I foune the world's most adorable Christmas mini casserole dish. No doubt it will end up hlding treats for the hounds and a Quilts For All Seasons book. I just loved pulling all of the items out of the box as I sipped my wine. I have a grin from ear to ear. Thank you so much for sending such a lovely group of items. I've been struggling a bit this year but I actually think I feel a bit of the Christmas spirit now. I'll post a pic as soon as I can locate the thingy to upload the pictures. Merry Christmas everyone!!!

skaduzy 12-08-2013 01:37 PM

I got a great package from my SS Judith1005. Will post a picture soon because there is too much to tell about.
I must have been a good girl!

Thank you Retired Fire Chief!! I am so absolutely surprised and pleased with everything you sent. I'm going to let the picture speak for itself. It seems that like a lot of other things, Secret Santa just keeps getting better and better each year. I am almost sorry that it will be another whole year until Secret Santa rolls around again. But, it will definitely be something to look forward to. But for now, I am just going to enjoy everything about this year's.

This picture does not do justice to the brightness of the fabric. It is much more vibrant in person. I think my Secret Santa must have gotten wind of just how much I adore polka dots!!
