Just got mine today from Misfit, which included a box of dark chocolate peppermint truffles (and they are delicious!), a lovely book bag, some gourmet kitty food for my kitties, a Scooby Do which my DH will thank you for, Az hummingbird garden seeds, cute slippers from bath and body works, a 'dream catcher' key chain, Chanukah gelt, and letter opener/CD opener/ bottle opener tools. Wow you out did yourself! Thanks very much!

You'd be surprised how much of it was stuff hanging around, and the kitty food was care of Amazon Vine -shhh don't tell them.

Whoever sent mine it's going to the word addy and I suffered and serious knee injury this weekend so I don't know when I'll see it. I'm quite housebound for the forseeable future.

I picked mine up this evening, a perfect reward for a dreary day washing dishes leftover from a big Christmas party, scrubbing out the puppy pen, and doing laundry.

I got:
A bookmark of Ghent lace; some fun photo coasters of Ghent landmarks; a book of all the Ghent landmarks (very interesting, now I'm feeling like I have to come see them) a packet of vintage Ghent postcards, a mag of same, and a box of real Belgian chocolates!
Thank you, Carine! you made my day. Also my Mom, who is with me for Christmas, and was wanting to know who I knew in Belgium!
She then proceeded to recite about half of Robert Browning's poem, 'How They Brought the Good News From Ghent to Aix' which seemed to involve a man almost killing his horse getting there, but didn't bother to say what the news was!

Not yet!

My items were just bought today but I can't send it out until Wed.

I say if we havent gotten anything by the middle of next week then start to freak.

Christmas is two weeks away, so I wouldn't panic yet.
