At least Cookie will be happy. She is recipient of the gifts that have been that have been chewed. There may be a clue in this comment, BTW.

Dear Secret Santa.

I have a bit of a problem. You see I am addicted. Addicted to something that you can only get certain times of the year. You may ask what these things are. Well the main one is ghirardelli peppermint bark. Like I'm not even kidding. I can go through a bag a day... not that I do... *tries to look innocent*
The other is Pumpkin Spice Lattes. Mainly from starbucks but anywhere is good! I just got a brand new nice coffee maker at the Beau's house but have not been able to find the ground pumpkin spice stuff.
Just sayin!

Sincerely

An addict

Just a thought - Chai tastes somewhat similar to Pumpkin Spice, have you tried a Chai Latte? I actually like to have the barista add Chai to an espresso latte or to cappuccino.

Definite light-sider! Don't worry -- there's plenty of time!! That sounds interesting, though.

You will rip it out of the postie's hands and knock him over in your rush to get inside and tear it open!

Well, my dear Recipient! Only one item remains -- something that I see regularly in several shops, and for whatever reason is currently absent from all that I have checked thus far. However, I have a couple of others up my sleeve and should have the elusive ______________ before Saturday. Then I can get your parcel ready to find its way to you.


Shall I send it right away? Maybe I should wait a week? or Two? or Three? or more? No, that would be cutting it too fine....hmmm...

I'm more than likely a darksider, in case that plays any part in your decision.

You can send it any time, the earlier the better. I can always blame the furkids when it gets opened before Christmas.
