LINGERLONGER I hope your gift arrives. That would be so shitty. I would happily send a gift to a second recipient if someone had to back out after the name draw

My SS did not identify herself... but she did a fantastic job! I received a beautiful wooden bookmark with a quote from Neil Gaiman, who is one of my favorite authors, a set of silicone wine glasses, which are perfect for taking outside after work when I play with the dog, a bag of loose leaf English Breakfast Tea, and a Baby Nessie tea infuser, which matches my Nessie ladle! I may have a small Nessie obsession...    It was me  I'm so glad you like everything! I had a lot of fun shopping for you I'll post mine when I get to a computer; my SSdid an awesome job. I'm also willing to fight someone for Linger. She was my SS last year and gave awesome gifts in addition to organizing all this and being awesome in general. |

Thank you, ladies. I'm actually going to be most pissed if she doesn't come here and AW the gift she received.
I'm loving all of these gifts so far. You ladies are awesome <3

I told E it was SS reveal day, and he cracked the biggest smile. So obviously I’m not the only one excited! My SS was the lovely daub23!! She sent me a dumpling cook book (which I’m planning on making a couple recipes with a friend in a week) and a beautiful apron. G and N sent E a book and two hand made ornaments! E loved the book! (Well, he looked at it, which I’m taking as love, since usually he just looks around and ignores me)   |

Yay reveal day! My SS sent me a cookbook from my wishlist and much needed kitchen utensils:   The utensils have already been broken in! I love the whisks especially. Whisking in my nonstick cookware without worrying about damaging it is great. I have used the whisks and both spatulas in the course of my Christmas baking. I still need to break in the cookbook, which is awesome. It presents 25 southern recipes, a healthy alternative, and an international rendition. My SS did not reveal herself. The items shipped directly from Amazon, and based on the note on the gift receipt, I'm thinking LINGERLONGER ? |

LINGERLONGER, bellaluna, thank you both again for organizing! You do an amazing job at this every year. Linger, I really hope your gift arrives soon. It would suck if your Santa dropped the ball, especially with all the work you do to get this together. I do know that UPS has been having a lot of issues this year, so fingers crossed there's a benign reason. Otherwise, I'm ready to shame. eba1012, I'm so glad you like everything! I may have teared up a little seeing Pico and Luna checking out their tiny dopplegangers.

I felt terrible that I had to have it shipped direct from Amazon in order to get it to you on time. I would have loved to have wrapped it and added a few little things in myself. I was was thinking of getting one of those whisk sets myself. I'm glad to hear you like them. |

I really do like the whisk set and I'd definitely recommend it. And no worries about shipping from Amazon. They packaged everything in gift bags, which are pretty nice and I'm definitely saving for re-use. |

righthandman , I was your SS. I'm glad you like everything, and I'm glad it was delivered although late. Ahhh I thought so! Thank you so much! I was questioning my geographical memory though.  It's totally not your fault, USPS has been sucking hard in my area this holiday season. |

My SS did not reveal herself (unless I totally missed it, which is possible, because G was wayyyyyy too excited to help me open the box!)   The books for G and N are a HUGE hit (especially the Zoe and Beans one, because both girls are currently obsessed with dogs). OBVIOUSLY I LOVE THE COOKBOOK, and I have already made two recipes from it! The lunch box is adorable and the perfect size, especially for commuting. So, thank you, thank you, thank you, my lovely mysterious SS <3 <3 <3 It was me! I didn't out myself in the package and I'm so happy you and the girls like your presents! |

I'm so glad you like everything! I had a lot of fun shopping for you
