Primo dahling… I LOVE THE SHIRT!!! This dummy totally forgot about the wrapped package up on my mantle until yesterday when I looked up… DUH! :lol:
Can’t wait to wear it!

Haha, I had Talkofthetown, J-Lu had me, and Talkofthetown had J-Lu- NICE Chocomare!!!
Just out of curiosity…what’s the most popular $$$ amount?..It doesn’t matter significantly to me…I just gauge my budget for that Christmas.[/QUOTE]
$50 is the most common
Got my package and opened it and love the gifts! Huge thanks to my SS for the gifts! Gonna try them out later.

Hahaha! That Chocomare!
I had such a hard time making my “Elf” account. COTH showed my elf as “registered”, but it would NOT take my password! Soooooo frustrating! I emailed Mod1 who found that I picked the exact same name as a previous Elf of Callista17! Hahahaha! Somewhere, a fake email account for COTH SS has a million “change of password” requests!

As much as I love the teasing and what not, this year I just had a friend relay messages back and forth so I didn’t have to create another SS alter.
P.
RolyPolyPony we dont have the Higher Standards products here in Canada so I havent tried them before. They all smell wonderful; my favourite is the lavender. I’m also thrilled with the rainbow tack sponges. Mine always seem to disappear at the barn, so if I see someone with one of my pretty ones I will know where they found it!!
Thank you so much again for your thoughtful gifts. Happy New Year to you and yours. Wishing you all the best in 2016
Thank you secret elf. The wine glasses arrived today and they are simply gorgeous. I can’t wait to try them out, it’s five o’clock somewhere, right?

Danceronice: Thank you! you rule, termites drool! I might make it to bed without reading through the copy of Faraway Horses that you sent. I’ll have to find a way to hook a DVD player to Mom’s TV and show her ‘Buck’. And the tote bag made from a recycled feed sack is just up my alley, its very similar to what we had down south. I’m glad we were mutual elves this year![/QUOTE]
So glad you like it! I saw those feed bags on Etsy and thought it worked perfectly (I try to precisely max out my budget for these and it fit right in with the two other items) And I thought it would make a nice surprise addition since the book and DVD were kind of obvious. It took a lot of self-control not to read the book first, though! 
I cannot wait to take the Log Cabin Cookbook to work next season!
I was just thinking about Secret Santa. From this year’s match (yay, cuse!) to my very first one…maybe it was Murphy’s Mom…I still have so many things from my Secret Santas that I use all the time. Glad that Secret Santa continues to thrive
seabreeze, you have a PM
OK, I have been totally missing out!! As many years as I have been on this forum I never clicked the SS link. Big dummy!
I will be participating in this next SS!!
Oh Nootka dahling! How could you have missed it all these years?! 
Watch for the new thread in/around September
Just popping in to say I can’t wait for Secret Santa this year! I was having a miserable year last year, and by the time I thought about it, it was too late. Same with the Christmas cards.
But I am ready and waiting with jingle bells impatiently waiting in the wings!

You must have “Christmas in July Syndrome”! Good time to shop clearance and tent sales…
No, I ran across a note that a former colleague had left for me. His wife participates in gift exchanges and they use elfster.com to facilitate. I’ve been meaning to send it to Chocomare, and keep forgetting, so now it is up here and hopefully I won’t forget to mention it to her.

Well now I know!
And, can you believe it… we’re only 6 weeks away from COTH SS 2016!!!
Yay!!!
