The best thing EVER!!!

Dec 21, 2018 22:24

After years of badgering alorarose, I finally joined the inner circle and got to participate in ikel89's Secret Santa game.
It was one of the best things to happen this year. Not only did I get to brighten wintergreen126's life with Icelandic goodies, but I got the most glorious package from ms_geekette :D :D :D

( Oh the most wonderful things )

This box is filled with absolutely amazing things and I am just laughing at that quantity of pop rocks. <333

Ha, well the first pop rocks was lost (I only ordered one) - it wasn't in the UPS tracking system at all so I'm not sure if UPS or the company misplaced it. So I asked the company to send me another package and then I got the first one after all, haha. So their mess-up was Dora's gain. ;-)

Haha, I also have a whole thing of poprocks to send her.

She's gonna be popping all next year! XD

Dear Dora! I am so happy to hear you got and loved your package!
It is full of most delightful things -- my best compliments to Eve! :D Austen swag is especially swoon-worthy :)
However, wanted to point out that there has been a mix-up of LJ handles of sender of your Santa. We have two Eves/Evas participating this year, and your sender is ms_geekette :) Could you please amend the links in your post, so the credit goes where it's due? Merci <3

Hope you loved the experience enough to come back next year! <33

Post has been mended.

This has been a fantastic experience and i cant wait for next year 😁😁😁

Woohoo! I'm glad you got everything before Christmas! I was sort of worried due to your package chilling out somewhere in the US for about a week - I was also annoyed that they sent it to Miami and then sent it to NY. The USPS is not very logical these days and seem to send everything in the opposite direction that it needs to go. I guess that's one reason why they are in perma-debt.

If I had known you liked non-traditional meats, I could've sent you some bison and some elk. ;-) And I hope the Pocari mix turns out ok.

Happy Holidays! <3

The P&P book, shirt, and tote bag are amazing! So pretty! I had to Google Pocari Sweat, and it sounds like Gatorade, but much, much better. FYI, I also learned that it's good for when you have dengue fever.

I had no idea that there were cotton candy Pop Rocks. There's a place in Boston that provides, after dinner, complimentary cotton candy with Pop Rocks on top. Yes, I do go there often.

While looking for pop rocks for Dora, I found practically every flavor under the sun. I just looked at the Pop Rocks official page, and they even have chocolate. The flavors that are available don't have as much variety as Jelly Bellys, but it's more than I was expecting.

I know Amazon had some assorted packages if you wanted to try multiple flavors.
