January SS – Thank You!

**Bluetree** · 12-30-2006, 04:36 PM

A big warm, wintery SS hug to Mimi - my not-so-secret sister!

Thank you so much for the wonderful treat... Smartwool Socks and a cushy thermal head warmer. How ironic, as I just purchased the Castelli one from TE and just had to send it back - it was HUGE. I've been told my head is swelled, but not even my bean could wear that one. So I returned it, wondering how I could keep my ears warm and voila! – my SS comes through!

I also got some wonderful warm Italian pudding treats - I can't wait to try them. I gotta run to the store to get my lactose-free milk, but the packets smell delicious. Best of all, since the writing on the package is in Italian, there's no way I can find out the fat/calorie content. Out of sight... out of mind! No calories! Yippeee!

Thanks again Mimi!

Such Irony! You already got your package! I just got mine... purchased by someone in Australia.
Now which of the Aussie girls could it be from?
I got some wonderful RED wool socks with both argyle and cats on them!!
and some lip armor (which I really could have used this weekend)

Bluetree, that's really italian hot chocolate!

I hope you like it, it is delicious!

Is my Downunder girlfriend LIGHT SABRE?

Still only 2 January ss-packages arrived? Has Santa collapsed with exhaustion? Are the reindeer on strike? Is it the wierd world-wide distribution of snow that's slowing delivery? (No snow where the sleighs are loaded up and waiting, piles of snow where camels are the preferred beasts of burden?)

I do not usually send out my SS packages until the 3 week of the month.

**Brandi** · 01-05-2007, 08:00 AM

I sent mine! Just wanted to do it!

ah, such restraint. After getting burned for November, I was in even more of a hurry this month so that my ss did not suffer.

It is not restraint as much as it usually takes me a couple of weeks to get everything I want to send. I am in awe of those who can receive a name and turn around and mail out a gift. I have never been late (thankfully) and it is still very early in the month. This one may actually go out by Monday, if all goes as planned.

I'm a SS newbie.

When are you supposed to reveal who your SS is?

Whenever you want - I've let mine guess. I think two of them still have no clue......

Thank you to my fabulous Maryland Secret Sister. I love the socks. They are so much cuter than the warm ones at my LBS.

I also love all the yummy goodies. I had to share the peanut butter pretzels with one of my co-workers. We just go nutty for any kind of peanut butter snacks. I went out snowboarding yesterday and I had a nice big mug of hot chocolate when I got home. I did have to hide the chocolate from my husband.....does that make me a bad person? I also had to explain to him what shot bloks were so that he wouldn't try to steal one of those too.

my DH has looked on longingly on the packages I've gotten from my Ss's!!!

**Aggie_Ama** · 01-08-2007, 05:32 PM

Toni- Thank you so much for the amazing SS package. It came in the day I had to pay nearly $700 to my old apartment, I needed a pick me up after that! I never imagined what would be in that box- it was like you know me perfectly! Thank you for not sending any UT items, the snowglobe is perfect for our study. BTW- I LOVE snowglobes.

The door hanger is just the reminder I needed, my doctor would be pleased.

I have already worn the t-shirt and two pairs of the socks.

I wear warm fuzzy socks every day after work, even in our hot summers. And as soon as I figure out something to cook in the pan, I will be putting it to good use as well.

The snowglobe from my alma mater...

Goodies for me and my puppies! Heidi and Maggie say thanks.

Hot chocolate and more hot chocolate! I had trouble deciding which one to take to work for this week. I think I will share the dark chocolate with DH.

The pan and a monthly reminder for my health.

Thanks again!
