I can't believe it. This is the 2nd SS in a row that I get to start this thread.
My Secret Sister (five one) was truely a goddess. I received a box packed with the greatest assortment of goodies.
Let's start off with those cookies. How in the world do you make each one such a work of art? I had to run all over my work showing them off. Even the warehouse manager, who is never impressed by anything, thought they were unbelievably cool. It will be a shame to actually have to eat them. Hmmm, maybe I could try covering one with a clear coating to make it into a ornament.
The chocolate wedges will be great to take along for a treat after a nice fall bike ride or snowboarding (if it keeps getting as cold as it's been). I also loved the mug, beautiful autumn plate, the candle, and the pair of my favorite brand of cycling socks. Fall in Wisconsin can get a bit nippy on the old feet so they will be put to good use.
The cookbook is awesome. It seems to have so many recipes that have a real "comfort food" vibe to them. I've picked out a few to try this weekend. Of course I showed it to a coworker and now she expects me to bring in samples for her as well....and she already copied down one recipe to try for herself.
Thanks again for everything. I loved it all.
