It's HEEERRRE!!
It's in a pretty green box, with a gentle warning not to open until Dec 7th. It jingles, it's heavy and doesn't smell like anything. Thank you my Canadian Santa! |

This is my first go round with the whole Secret Santa on this board and didn't realize I was supposed to wrap every little thing in the entire package!!! Uh oh!!! Did I screw up??? Hope not. I did write - in red & green on the back of the package - 'from your Secret Santa' so hopefully she won't open it til Xmas. We'll see. . . . .

If you haven't yet received your SS box, let Terri know so she can check the tracking records. All gifts were supposed to be mailed by the 14th and if you haven't yet received yours, it may have been misdirected, somehow. :eek:

I also add other things at time....cranberries , strawberries chopped up or rasberries...whatever I have...I omit the nuts because my granddaughter is allergic...but it is delicious with.....I also add more icing sugar to the icing....I find it is just a bit too cream cheesy.....maybe another cup....makes a lot...
