This thread is where you should post your gifts as you receive them. There will be a separate thread to post your stocking stuffers. Then, in a few days, I'll start another thread for guessing.

Have fun, and Happy Holidays!

Quote:Dear taurusmoon,

This holiday season, I thought I'd give you the head of those who have been unkind to you.



To further ward-off these evil creatures, I present you with

Quote:Rodents and other animals mark territory (your car, house, etc.) with their scent. Animals are attracted by this scent. Rataway fragrance gets rid of the scent. No lingering scent, no more attraction.

Rataway fragrance protects car engines, wiring, boats, motorhomes, machinery, heavy equipment, etc. when sprayed to protect the surfaces

Rataway fragrance is not a pepper spray.

If you are looking for an effective, natural control for odors, Rataway fragrance is it.

But failing that, I found that Honda cars were prone to rodents chewing the wires. The new models are made with a coating on the wires to keep the rodents away. At least, according to the people on the Car Talk forum. I thought this sporty model might be your style:



I really hope your gifts will give you a happy, healthy, rodent-free holiday and a happy new year!

Ooooooh, that's a sweet ride! Heaven help the vermin that try to mess with it!

Thanks Santa!

Quote:Dear Magenta:

I know that your big day approaches, and how much you guys love to make good things in the kitchen for each other. To best do that, you really need the best tools. I'm sending you the deluxe All-Clad set:

You also said that you don't have baking dishes, I think. So here's a set of the good stuff, in my favorite color (you can trade for red or blue if you prefer ):

You shouldn't have to cook everything, though, so here's some dessert to finish off the evening after you've whipped up an impeccable dinner:

To celebrate your cruise-y wedding, of course!

Happy Holidays!

Thanks, Santa. I love my gifts, especially the cake! It's perfect for a cruise wedding!

My Secret Santa is also on Faebook- here is the first thing she sent me:




And here is another gift, which I just LOVE:



Thank you, Socialnetworking Santa!!!

My Secret Santa promises me a pain-free shopping experience

MJ--

I know how you wait until the last minute for shopping....so I've decided to help you out here. First, I've hired a private jet



to wisk you away for your shopping adventure.

but don't worry...I know how overwhelming it can be...so let



Glen help. He comes highly recommended as your personal shopper. Just tell him what you need, and he's got it covered. His last client posed for a picture with him..she was pleased with his work!

You are going shopping in Europe, starting in Dublin at the
St. Stephens green shopping area...check out all those windows!!

Lots to see and do up in the north, and some great shopping in Belfast..


Don't get too comfy..you are off again....this time to London for a little Christmas shopping.



Harrods of course. Have fun!!

The trip back will take a while, but you can relax and enjoy a few of these..


Godiva of course.

Indulge yourself...

Merry Christmas!!



Thanks, Santa!!!!

My Secret Santa sure does know what I need right about now!!! Thanks so much!!


Oh Thinkerlady...what you need more than anything else is a nice pampered day off!

First, I've hired a sub to come in and deal with...I mean TEACH...the children.

here

Next, you'll be whisked away in luxury...don't drink all the champagne in the back seat!



But where to? Ah....off to visit Mr. Jeff, who will give you the best massage of your life.

After your massage, relax by the pool for the remainder of the day with your favorite beverages and good friends.


Feeling refreshed? Good. That's exactly what Santa wanted you to do.

Have a wonderful holiday!!!

ROFL! My SS apparently thinks I need a little excitement in my life!

and just for fun:

and followed by these to help her relax:

Ninja lessons, dinner hanging off a crane, and committing a heist! I would definitely need that massage and the chocolates to calm down after all that!

Oh my...Glen and Mr. Jeff have me all a-twitter. And MJ, I adore that shopping area with all the windows - I'd just be looking at all that glass!!!

Since you have a nice new crib, why shouldn't he




And the right food to make him tweet so pretty




But all those seeds can make a mess! Don't worry. I've arranged for someone to come in and clean up on a regular basis.




Have a wonderful holiday!

My gift was really over the top and perfect. Thank you, Santa.

My gift is just lovely, and after doing some shopping for our community care adoptees this afternoon in the snow, just what I need!

SantaWorm Wrote:It's time to get away from the cold for a while. Spend a week in Puerto Rico where it never snows and the average "winter" low temperature is in the 70's.

Enjoy ocean views from your private balcony, dine in world class hotels, enjoy pampering in the on-site Golden Door Spa.

Thank you Santa!!!

Lynn, that would go so well with my home gym!

Heck, that would go so well with my pots and pans, and my shiny new Mac book!

Yes it would! I think we should have a big party!!! And invite Glen and Mr. Jeff!!

I'm thinking that Glen and Mr. Jeff should become regulars around here....

(Keep BoomBoom away from them)

I love all the gifts! I'd take any of them.

While shopping for your present, thinking "what would just AMAZE her,"
I came across the old stand-by, a fully-loaded TASER



But then I thought about your year, and how a vacation might have been out of your reach,
So I decided to book you a trip - out west, to PISMO BEACH



"Why there?" you might be thinking, but no, I've not been drinking.
I don't expect you to surf a breaker; instead, I've set up lunch for you with KAGE BAKER



If this isn't enough to make you relax, I can always send you five tons of



This is completely AWESOME, Santa. Thank you!

Santa's really sorry that your gift is this late. Santa's desperately hoping you'll be distracted by this:



Santa knows how hard you work, fighting for these guys:



Against these guys:



...and all their friends, so Santa has arranged for some relaxation.







When, you ask? Why, every day for a year, of course!


I love my gifts! Thanks Santa!

Santaworm has my back....my santa is awol and I hope they are okay-I understand that life is often crazy me of all people understand that...

Santawormie gave to me:






I'd love to give you a new home of your own for Christmas, but I can't fit it under the tree. How about the keys to a luxury RV instead? You can park it where you like and get a change of scenery whenever you need one!

Melanie, for your gift, I thought about how you love green. Then I wondered what could you use that's green?

I thought long and hard, and finally I thought "she needs relaxation!" Maybe this will help:



I also thought "she loves to be online." I searched and found the ultimate green online experience:



Yes, that's a bamboo keyboard and mouse.

And finally I thought "she could use a vacation!" What could be more green than the Emerald Isle?



I've arranged a flight to Ireland for the whole family. I thought you might like to stay in the Waterford Castle and Hotel while you enjoy your Irish vacation.

Quote:Waterford Castle, located 2 miles from Waterford City is uniquely situated on its own private 310 acre island on the River Suir, surrounded by woodlands and an 18 hole championship golf course. Waterford Castle offers accommodation of a superb standard and is currently the only Deluxe Hotel in the South East of Ireland. The Castle's 19 bedrooms are bright and airy with stunning views of the surrounding estate, the guests live here rather than simply stay here.
The tasteful detail of the interior reflects the old world charm of a 15th century Castle. The guestrooms and suites are particularly spacious and well appointed with stunning views of the surrounding estate and golf course.

Merry Christmas!!! And thank you for all of my lovely gifts!

Thanks, Margaret! That keyboard is *gorgeous*, and yes, the Emerald Isle is my #1 favorite "I want to go before I die" vacations! Thank you!
