    Thank you so much, Cathy, Jinx and Baxter! Both for the presents and the hilarious card :) 
    I hope everyone can see how great the necklace and earrings look, I just hid your full name with the lid of the box. If I wasn't off to meet a friend for lunch now, I'd dig right into the 8 Wonders of Cincinnati. Really looking forward to learning about your hometown :-) Funny how after 25 years, I still start grinning like a loon when I see the stick man =) 
    Off to make my friend jealous with my new jewellry now. Thanks again, I really appreciate the thoughtful gifts :-)


    Yaaaaayyy!  So happy (and relieved) everything finally ma!e it to you!  (all unbroken, too).  No need to hide my name as I'm sure many of the folks here might be familiar with me on a few of the PJ pages on Facebook ;)  I enjoyed having an international Secret Santa friend. 
    Also, I completely agree with the uncontrollable grin at the sight of Stickman!  Enjoy and Cheers to a very Happy 2018!

    I'm still crossing my fingers for the stuff I sent to the US to finally arrive at its destination, so I know the feeling.
    A Happy 2018 to you too! :)

    Hello ! I know that my secret recipient of Santa received her gift in November, but I do not think they have posted it here. I have not received anything from my holy secret, but the postal mail in Peru is a disaster =) Happy 2018 Everyone!

    Same for me.

    Just recently had confirmation that my Secret Santa recipient received their gift a few days ago...so I'm really Happy that it arrived there alright :)

    Got no confirmation from my secret santa yet. All I know is, that the parcel is in canada since 12th of december...

    My SS is quiet too. It had a long way to go and I can’t track it. Hopefully it reached its destination. 

    Seeing what people got and the reactions is kinda part of it. So hopefully recipients....post away!!!

    Here I am complaining about people not posting their gifts and I haven't put up a picture of mine.



    From Briony, I received beautiful hand carved salad servers, a magnet of the South African flag, and a really cool CD with a mix of music!  When I first looked at the CD I thought maybe I'd be listening to some South African music but the second song was The Who's I Can't Explain!  It's got a great variety of music on it and I've been listening to it in the car for the last few days.  Thank you, Briony, In hot Cape Town--we know a little bit about hot weather in Texas!  :wink:

    Tracking says the gift I sent has been delivered (back on 12/20) but I've not heard from the recipient (which is very disappointing but - oh well). I have heard from the person who picked my name. Seems there was a snafu with my address but very happy to hear from them :) that makes all the difference!

    I love all the pictures so much.  I hope my package got to its destination - I know I was cutting it close for Christmas.  It is amazing to see how creative people are.

    Yes I'm hoping mine made it to the recipient. I know I sent it a bit late so it may not have arrived before Christmas. Was debating whether to contact and let them know it was posted it just might be a bit late.

    More than happy with part 2 of my gift from mrsitaly22! Especially I like the "party game for horrible people". This title promises a lot of fun. Thanks for the small things and the letter also and be sure, there's a lot of stupid people in germany ay well. Thanks a lot!!!

    Oh man, Cards Against Humanity is great. If you have some fun, sarcastic people along with some booze, you're in for a fun game. Alternatively, it can be hilarious seeing the looks on others' faces if they're uptight or very conservative...albeit pretty awkward if it's obvious they aren't having fun.

    I posted 2 weeks ago, package is in the right country since a couple of days.
    A confident (!) of my secret santa gave me the hint via pn, that my 2 (!!!) packages may be delayed... I'm very curious.
    It was you!! Lol. Thanks again:) We took off for holidays on the 20th and just got back yesterday, hence the long delay. Thanks for the awesome package:)

    Hey Everyone! 
    I received my Secret Santa present yesterday from Jorge and I absolutely love it! THANKYOU very much for the thoughtful gift and letter - I am so excited to make something delicious with these awesome ingredients! I really enjoyed reading about a different Culture and food. The gorgeous artwork isn’t like anything I have seen before! I adore it!! It made me think of Chris Cornell “Loud Love” which I feel is a beautiful tribute to a great talent, it’s very creative, and I look forward to displaying it soon. Also great to get some Eddie Vedder stickers!! Thanks again, this experience was fun and made me smile!! Much Love B 
    PS maybe if I can’t make the photos work Dimi can post them.
