Where's the Secret Santa Reveal thread?

[crashgizmo]

I am just sending my gift because I'm a slacker, but I know people have been sending and getting gifts! Where's the reveal, did I miss it? And can it be pinned? Who the heck is the MM moderator anyway? 

alleinesein I know you were the creator for this! 

[alleinesein]

womet  y4m are listed as the mods.  Hopefully one of them can pin the thread.

I'll get my gift mailed out this weekend.  I just bought the last item for it today so now I just need to get off my lazy butt and get it wrapped up!

[explorer2001]

I don't think you are a slacker. The gift date is Christmas. Plus I just mailed all of my packages including the secret Santa gift tonight after work.

If someone tells me where it is I can pin it. Tag me with the link

I just pinned it to the top of the MM page.

I got mine today. THANK YOU spunkarella!!!! I love it! This box set of DVDs has been on my list for quite some time (please no one laugh at my terrible taste in television), and Spunkarella bought me the cutest set of Gwen Stefani Harajuku Lovers stickers, and an awesome kitty-cat kitchen timer!

These gifts are perfect, since I have a collection of Harajuku Lovers notebooks and folders, but not these stickers! Also, we have a kitchen clock on our wall with a removable timer, but the timer broke so I was in need of a new one!

Thank you again Spunkarella, I love this stuff!!

[spunkarella]

Yay!! So glad you like everything @bellakitty! Merry Christmas!

These are so fun!

To my ss--apologies if my gift goes Unacknowledged --I am away from home until the 26

[crashgizmo]

I am so excited that my SS knew how much I liked local products! I got some love from New Orleans- pralines, a candle, and some amazing lip balm. Thanks SO much cajunmom!!

You're welcome! I hope the candle smells nice, that's one I haven't smelled before.

It does! DH even liked it, and he's a candle snob.

I absolutely LOVE my gifts from MrsDarcy !! Everything is perfect! I can't wait to drink some tasty English tea made using my TARDIS tea infuser! The chocolate squares look yummy also! And you are so sweet to include a gift for "Pup-pocalypse! He loves the peanut butter treats!! And the card was so cute! What a beautiful family.

Thank you for the awesome gifts!

Yay!! Glad you like them! My daughter (16m) loved going to petsmart to get the puppy treats, she was screaming when she saw the dogs!

Ahhhhhh! Thank you mrsfarmer!

But the suspense is killing me! My gift arrived after I left to see my family for the holidays, so I won't be able to get my hands on it until the 26 (and I made dh promise to put it in a safe place and not open it.)

SUSPENSE!

I resisted the urge to ask when you would be back when I saw you posted the other day about leaving.  Don't worry, it's packed well and should survive until you get back!

@bellakitty is an amazing SS! She sent me lots of local Michigan goodies, including strawberry rhubarb jam (MY FAVORITE), Indian black tea with ginger (yum), granola, and some pistachios (from the first place in the US to import pistachios!). Some of the pistachios will not make it home Also, there is the cutest Dr. Seuss card. Thanks so much, bella!

Thank you!!  Everything arrived safely  I've been coveting that key chain since I saw it at NM last month.  The nail decals will be fun to play with and mini coloring book will help with some stress relief.  And you can never have too many wine bottle stoppers; mine seem to disappear so I definitely need more!

[Deleted]

I'm so happy you like everything, konapoppy! It was fun shopping for you! The jam and tea were inspired by your elfster list and what you wrote in the SS thread!

[explorer2001]

@adobeclay Thank you so much for the lovely gift! I'm sure I will use the infuser water bottle all the time, especially with our AZ summer heat. The chocolates are perfect and will be a nice treat to keep me going through tax season. The coloring book and colored pencils are beautiful and will also be a nice tool to relax and be more zen. The pomegranate lotion smells divine! Thank you so much for such nice thoughtful gifts. Plus I had to include the adorable hedgehog gift bag in the picture. It was just too cute!

[winnieandwine]

alleinesein glad it made it there safely. Happy holidays!!

Was my Secret Santa and she did a fabulous job as SS.  Kitty Pom was thrilled with the box of course.
Cooking things, owl things, it was quite a collection.  Thank you so very much!!!  Sorry this is so huge.

[spunkarella]

Omg crashgizmo you are the best secret Santa ever!!! I squealed when I saw the socks and scared the poor cats and DH. And I was thrilled with the pomegranate cordial syrup and even more excited when I found out you made and bottled it yourselves! From your own pomegranate tree! I'm seriously impressed. (Please don't judge me for opening the gifts before the card.  ) I can't wait to try it out, especially the cocktail suggestion. Thank you so, so much!! It's perfect!

Update: the syrup is pretty great with rum and ginger ale.  :drink:

We loved everything!  Mr. P used the pasta spice on our dinner last night...it was terrific.  I am trying to post pics of all the other packages that came yesterday too from you and the other "elves".  I had it all ready and my post got eaten, I need to upload the photos a different way I guess.  It might be tomorrow before I figure it out, LOL.
