His gifts last year to me are still the talk of the household...

I mailed my gift out on Tuesday, so my SS should have it soon. I hope she likes it! I don't know this person too well and wish I knew her a little better so I could have maybe gotten something a little more personal, but hopefully I did okay nonetheless.

Oh, and I signed the card with both my real name and org name. I didn't realize we were keeping it a mystery till after Christmas. Damn, I'm a total newbie at this.

I posted my SS gift on Thursday, the post office queue was sooooo long, it took 45 minutes, but it was worth it.

Now I can’t wait until people post what they get, perhaps we can do a photowhore your SS gifts

I photowhored my gift last year...

MoniGram said:

hmmm. If mine doesn't get out in time I may have to send a picture. I have HALF of the gift. I thought it was going to be easy to get something fun and local to my region of the US. Shiiiiit. Waiting for the other half to arrive. Yes, arrive. I had to order the mother f$#ker. It's not going too far so hoping to have it in the mail by Friday. This is what I get for an idea. Shoulda just got a McDonalds gift certificate! Only kidding.

shoulda just sent ribs...

RenHoek said:

HA HA! Very good idea! There are many places around these parts that do send ribs like that. Cooked, sauced, and ready for the microwave. They are notorious for the country ham and grits too.

i got my gift in the mail today.

i can't wait to open it!

my gift is going out monday. it would have gone out sooner, but it took a lot of time to make one element of it.

for you!!

I'm kinda getting nervous that my SS hasn't gotten her gift yet. Priority mail sent out on Tuesday really should have gotten there by today.

Hey! I got it! You are awesome! The coffee is delicious!

It was actually in the mail center in our neighborhood by Thursday, but the locker it was in wouldn't unlock with the key in my mailbox. I had to write a love note to my post woman and she took it out of the locker and left it on my doorstep. We didn't notice until tonight!

But it was wonderful and I love it! I ground up the beans and made a pot this evening. The earrings I will wear tomorrow. And I'll photo it later.

Awesome! I'm so glad! (I was sweating a little because I didn't get any receipt or tracking info, which was pretty dumb of me.) I'm glad you like it, and I hope your holidays are fantastic!

Will the photowhoring occur on this same thread or will it be done separately?
