I know--very creative.  My poor secret santee is getting no such fun clues....    
I sure haven't put that much brain power into it!  Or have I? 


The currency is pretty cool!  I have a little collection going of foreign coins.  I'm not sure if I have any from there though.  I'll have to look sometime.

Maybe they are a Russian Immigrant?
Or maybe a Russophile?  I am Scandinavian but am a Hispanophile--I always tell people I'm a born-again Mexican.

OMG!! Another letter came in the mail -- look what was inside!

Wow!!!!!! Can't wait to go buy fun goodies for the kids.

Oh by the way, my Russian-loving or traveling or immigrant SS  

How cool is that?!  And this one I have permission to use before Thanksgiving.

I made it to Petco today to use the gift card--how fun!
The loot:

Kitties weren't waiting for me to get things out of the bag
Hannah loved the new ball on a string with feathers


Travis hasn't been into treats lately--he's my old boy whose eating is hit and miss--but he LOVED the new 'Catnip Fever' flavor.

:clap:

:thanks: :santa:

My kitty loves the pink bag, plain Catnip ones. Have not seen these hybrid ones- might have to check them out!

Same here.  I'm waiting for divine inspiration.  Last year, I did it all in one fell swoop 
I have been so busy with things around here I've not put as much thought into it as usual.  But I have that big craft fair soon and I usually find some really nice things there!

Any new happenings , anyone? I have to admit, this thing with betsygee has got me curious. It's like a clue marathon........ have there been any new clues?This is by far the most interesting I have seen it yet (though I have only done SS for a few years......) It was 90 today, still hard to think of it as 'Christmas' when it is 90. :(

Boy, I'll tell you, this stuff was a hit!  I've had to go buy more!  

New hint!!


So let's we had narrowed it down to a  pot-smoking, vodka drinking gardener who eats bleu cheese.....and who's crabby?!  
This person must be quite a character!!!    

Or no, "seriously" 
  .....a Cancer, born June 22 between and July 23?

Well that could describe me except for the pot-smoking, vodka drinking part.

What if it doesn't mean an actual crab?

Something that sounds like crab maybe??

Grab

Blab

Nap

Tab

Maybe they are allergic to crab?
