Some Stuff

I was having a real down day yesterday, but one bright spot was the arrival of wintergreen126's gift (delivered with the aid of ikel89's plotting magic)!

A Delightful Delivery )

Hurrah! Also, I'm really relieved that you seemed to have been able to make out my handwriting--I've had the post office return several letters to me on the account that the "address does not exist," aka they couldn't read what I wrote. It's why I didn't write as much in the card as I wanted; it would have been a squiggly mess.

Vermont is beautiful. It has lots of cheese and chocolate!

Merry Christmas!

Aw, your handwriting was absolutely legible to me, no worries! Then again, I have been working with kindergarten students for the past couple of years, so I am pretty good at deciphering messy writing. ;)

Thank you, once again, for the thoughtful gift. I'm going to look through the cookbook and see if there's something I could make during my winter break. (The soap, caramels, and chocolate are already being used on a daily basis, just FYI!)

It has lots of cheese and chocolate!

While Anders is all about the woods, I have to confess that lots of cheese is probably the strongest thing compelling me to want to live there...XD

Aww thank you for the excellent Santa-ing! <3 I hope it was fun for you, because I'm certainly impressed with your choice of presents (esp the book:D)

I took a couple of photos for practice but it didn't come with a USB cable either, so I'm now waiting for that...I am excited to actually use this soon, haha!

Yay for the Santa package! (goat milk caramels? I did not realize that was a think!) and yay for the DSLR! We've been very happy with our several Nikons!

I didn't know goat milk caramels were a thing, either, but from what I've seen so far, VT likes to be very creative with its dairy products. ;)

Good to hear about the Nikons! I am super excited to use it once all the necessary components arrive!

Whee, I'm liking this a lot, especially the book, as I mentioned - seems like a neat fannish idea (and hopefully practical, too :) How does the goat milk caramel taste like, though?:O I know caramel, and I know goat milk, and those two just don't seem to mix in my head :)

Also, CONGRATULATIONS on the new camera, may it serve you well!:) I'll be looking forward to more pictures from you! <3

I JUST ate a goat milk caramel for describing purposes, but it's hard to explain exactly how it's different than a regular milk caramel. It has just as much delicious sugar as a regular caramel, but there's something ever-so-slightly more savory about it, I suppose...in any case, this caramel loving person insists that they're good. ;)

I am very excited about the camera, though I still have to wait for a USB cable to arrive now. I have no idea why things like USB cables and memory cards are not included when one purchases a $400 camera...maybe to heighten the anticipation?!
