Our long awaited yuletide package from the Always Esteemed Scott arrived today, giving all of us here one last very welcome hit of Merry-Merry before we tuck and fold away the holidays for yet another orbital cycle. Here's what we got:
Me - two burned Barenaked Ladies CDs and three books by Dave Duncan, which promptly went on the newly refurbished In Stack
Tammy - a cookbook
Super Drama Teen - some anime movie she was very happy to get
Super Dependable Teen - a small metal statue of Boba Fett she promptly swooned over
Super Adorable Kid - a ballerina doll that has been cheerfully accepted into the posse of ballerina dolls that already lives on her bed
We all thank you hugely, Scott, and I myself hope you and your son are getting some enjoyment out of the Box o' Clix I sent your way.
Merry Christmas -- for the last time until next December!

So this Boy Scout, couldn't have been older than eleven, is holding up this kinda chubby looking Scotch Pine. It was.... ehhhh... okay...
I wanted to add my very heartfelt thanks to Scott for thinking of me and the girls. Each gift was so personally thoughtful and just reinforces how lucky I am to have glommed on to Highlander's posse of very wonderful friends.
ReplyDeleteThanks, again, Scott and best wishes for a Happy 2007 to you and yours!
Yay!
ReplyDeleteI'm so very glad that a) the package arrived intact and before spring and b) that everyone was happy with what they got.
Tammy: Highlander says your a fantastic cook, which I don't doubt - the cookbook I sent is one of my favourites, and one I use all the time.
Highlander: Heh - you got barenaked ladies for Christmas. The Dave Duncan series is not his best (that'd be A MAN OF HIS WORD, which is really hard to find) but is still very good. It borrows heavily from LORD OF LIGHT for its ideas, but Duncan is a good enough writer that it doesn't come off as a theft.
I'm thrilled that the girls liked their stuff; I'm just sorry that it didn't get there in tim for Christmas. Oh well, maybe next year.
Happy New Year to you guys!
