All I got for Christmas is...
Awesome stuff!
Heather perfume from Scotland
A copy of My Enemy the Queen, by Victoria Holt
Some truly yummy cookies filled with a combination of strawberry and apricot jam, which I graciously shared with my family
A bar of Mon Cherri Dagoba chocolate
A pair of opaque black tights
Quick-cooking Japanese egg noodles
About a hundred ponytail holders, fully half of which are too thin for my mass of very thick, quite long hair; upon putting one in, it snapped in my hand and I burst out laughing at the horrified look on my mother's face
Two mini Kit-Kats, a mini Crunch, and a mini Snickers
A tiny silver toon!Nightwing figure
A gorgeous triple-strand choker-length necklace of varying shades of green beads with some gold and blue beads sprinkled among the glimmering green and a silver dragon charm in the center
Red and gold Oriental hairsticks
A pen which is also a game: trying to get a series of tiny silver balls to the end of the maze which is the shaft of the pen
A giant Nestle Crunchy bar, which is chocolate with peanuts and raisins (I'll eat around the peanuts)
A very pretty box painted with an angel hovering over a small, snow-covered town, which I can use to hold jewellery
All the Company of Heaven: An Inspirational Treasury of the Lives of the Saints, which has truly lovely illustrations as well as the most perfect title possible
A red velvet ponytail holder with gold flowers
Two bars of Lush soap, one Peach and Love scent and one Scioglimi
A toon!Batman and a toon!Robin action figure (I HAVE A TOON!TIMMY GO ME)
The War Drums trade
DUDE, I am clearly psychic, because I picked an outfit that matches perfectly with the woven lavendar purse I received, right down to the electric-blue necklace matching the embroidered butterfly on the suede square
The COOLEST T-SHIRT IN THE WORLD, Smaug framed by a gold Celtic design of SHEER AWESOME :D :D :D
A little tiny ikon, maybe half the size of my palm, that's a triptych of the Theotokos and Christ Child with the two other panels -- which fold into a lovely wooden triangle-thing carved really nicely -- painted with angels
A basket containing a teapot, two sticks of rock candy, four kinds of Tazo tea -- two Calm, one Zen, one Awake -- chocolate chunk and hazelnut biscuits, and chocolate and vanilla cookies
The thirteenth book in the Lemony Snicket Series of Unfortunate Events books, which completes my collection AND which I successfully identified through the packaging, for I am made of win
A bar of something calling itself Emergency Chocolate, which I approve of
A really soft sky-blue long-sleeved shirt with wooden beads in the collar
Twenty bucks in a really funny card
A very small heavy plastic neon orange traffic cone emblazoned with the message "Save Time: See It My Way," which, y'know, suits me marvelously
Thirty bucks in a card with a quote from a friend on it, which led into a story which had us all in gales of laughter
An utterly beautiful silver Celtic cross with a glittering amethyst in the T-junction on a slender silver chain
A Venetian pink half-mask with curliques of silver glitter
A bar of Ghirardelli chocolate with caramel filling
A check for twenty-five dollars
A sky-blue long-sleeved shirt with a white tank under it
BATMAN: The Movie starring Adam West and Burt Ward, which will be the very first Adam West I have ever seen
A cowl-necked cashmere sweater in this gorgeous shade of deep turquoise
A deep blue cameo brooch, which will match all my new blue shirts just perfectly
High-class soy lotion for my face
Uncle John's Curiously Compelling Bathroom Reader, chock-full of trivia
A pale blue fuzzy jacket with fake blue fur at collar and cuffs, as well as flowers made of pearls
A long, soft, fuzzy eggplant scarf
This amazingly gorgeous cedar-scented wall hanging with black designs -- based mostly, I think, on Celtic art -- on a background of reds bleeding into purples into blues into more shades of red
Saints, Signs, and Symbols: A Concise Dictionary
A CUDDLY BATMAN DOLL. He is toon!Batman. He is vengeance. He is the night. He is FUZZY COMFORT. :D :D :D
The most awesome Christmas cards of all TIME: a card of the utterly perfect Annunciation picture, a Happy Everything card which takes every winter holiday I know of into account and is lovely into the bargain, and a postcard with a rhyming poem about Slade and mistletoe.
HOW ARE THESE PEOPLE SO AWESOME?!?
