It sure is Wonder.  I received some vacuum sealing bags I'd forgotten I'd ordered, 1 of my POK orders, a gift from a lovely friend and I think I have received my SS present although I have no idea who James McCartney is.

Firstly to my dear friend, thank you so much for that - I do not have any ice-cream/gelato books at all even though I have given them to others as gifts.  Guess what I'll be reading in bed tonight ;D

Secondly, to the lovely person who sent the Bennaton bowls, this is a great gift and something I really wanted.  How did you know that ???  I can't thank you enough, you have really spoilt me but I am so appreciative of your generous gift.   :-* :-* :-* :-*

Have posted my SS gift today.  All I can say is that it went North, or should that be North West  Nah, definitely North East.  Well I always was directionally challenged  :-)) :-))  Any way it is on its way somewhere ;D

Great gifts Judy. I was reading about the Messina book the other day. Are either of them from SS or just more lovely forum friends?

Well I received a lovely surprise from a very naughty member. Tea2 has certainly been busy flying goodies all around the country,

Thank you dear friend.

I know who the book's from Wonder and I'm assuming the Benneton bowls are from my SS.  Maybe they would like to identify themselves, I'd certainly love to know who sent them.

I would be in 7th heaven if I had all that to open up! does the Messina book have ice cream recipes in it?

Gelato recipes as far as I could see with a quick flick through CP.  Will know more after tonight.  I'm sure my Cuisinart came with a special gelato paddle, must check on that too.

Judy how wonderfully exciting for you and what gorgeous gifts. I have looked at the icecream book and of course love the banettons.

Were  any from your SS or don't you know?

The bannetons are the only gift I think may be from my SS Cookie but I really don't know for sure.  Were you told my present had been posted?

No card with the bannetons? Was that the one from POK?
