This is long, long overdue, and for that I apologize.

My Secret Santa package arrived awhile ago, and it is AMAZING. Seriously. You can't imagine the joy I felt as I ripped all of the individual packages open. They were wrapped really beautifully and I took photos of them all, but then my camera went crazy and corrupted my card and I lost everything that was on it, so you'll just have to envision how pretty they were.

Anyway, on to the goods!

First of all, this cute little guy was hanging off of a package. So adorable!



Then I opened these, and my salivary glands exploded:



I haven't tried the espresso cups yet, but I'm sure they're amazing. As far as the asian candy goes: HOW DID YOU KNOW?! Those are two of my favorite kinds!! Uncanny.

Anyway, then I opened THESE:



And seriously... awesome! I'll watch the movie while I wear the clips. It'll be a party. (And for real, those are the best hair clips ever).

And then I found the epistolary novel.



Have you read this one? Well, I have now, and it's a great book. Well worth the read :)

But WAIT! THERE'S MORE!

The next part left me flabbergasted. It's beautiful.

Anyway, I took photos of all of it so that you could revel in its glory.

























Seriously... FUCKING AMAZING. I can't even fathom the amount of work that went into that. And furthermore, you managed to somehow find uncannily perfect gifts. You're amazing.

And you didn't reveal yourself, so I'm dying to know... who are you, you wonderful person?!

Well, MD, DC and DE are pretty close to VA (at least, Northern VA). Perhaps they were extra sneaky and drove a bit to send it off from another state?!

Oh man, this is like, Spy Games now.

i don't think margo is friends with this awesome person on facebook, so hopefully she can't figure it out. but if she does figure it out, i totally blame haya.

Margo, I'm really glad you liked the package! I had a lot of fun putting it together!



the funny thing is, I was standing at the store looking at the litchi candy, thinking, "...I know she's said something about this candy before...now...was it, 'I love this kind,' or 'this kind tastes like dog vomit'..." ( : I decided victory goes to the bold. and WHO KNEW Roald Dahl wrote the screenplay for You Only Live Twice?! not me! I was watching it on TV and I was like WAAAAT no way I have to get that for her.



just one thing, I have to ask, did the Internet eat the December page?



because if I somehow failed to bind it in, I might cry o_o



I just might O_O
