Glad to hear it....then my cookies won't go to waste.

Yes once I wrapped stuff it made it harder to fit.

Hint: You are west of the Mississippi




You ARE my SS!!

When are you mailing it!?!?!?!?!?!

That actually narrows it down a lot, as there are far more TCSers east of the Mississippi than west (go check the TCS map).

Sounds yummy Jan! Don't worry about posting late, you know I'm very patient.

SS looks like you are getting 3 boxes. I am sure you won't mind. I might just have to spread the shippings out too.
I'm excited about three boxes!


Maybe, after much squishing and squashing, I mailed a box today...or maybe I didn't.

Wrapped, boxed, packed, addressed, taped within an inch of its life. Ready to ship. Tomorrow? Who knows?

Phew Fran, that was efficient! I had to abandon my "operation gift wrapping" tonight due to my over-enthusiastic little helpers. To my SS: I apoligize for the random cat hair, bit of my sweater, and ripped tissue paper.
Also, I rediscovered that I couldn't wrap a gift nicely to save my life.

I'm doing my best to be sneaky with the delivery of the presents, but anyone reading this thread will guess it's me from what's in it most likely

I just wanted to drop in and let my Secret Santa know one minor detail about me? I am very firmly rooted on the DARK SIDE and will open my gift as soon as it arrives !
