What lovely gifts we have all received. Thanks once again cookie. Seems to have been a smooth run this year. I look at my gifts every day and am very thankful to have such good friends.

Yesterday I delivered our Christmas gift to the Gordonvale Palliative Care unit so thank you too to all those who shared. LOL!

Lovely gifts here from very clever Secret Santas.

Couldn't resist the temptation anymore so I opened mine. Thank you very much SS :)  I'm going to be either a very stylish kitchen hand or gardener, haven't decided which :D  They will remind of the AA cooking class and all the fun of the Melbourne FF. I love them  8)

Also many thanks to Cookie for organising our fourth SS (I think)  :-*

Gert that is lovely of you. It spurred me on to send my donation to Parkinson's people. Thanks for the reminder.

I decided to open my last SS gift. Golly gosh, gee, and whatever. Thank you so much SS ( remember I know who you are). I have been truly spoiled and will be sitting down this afternoon to have a lovely read.

Love the gloves Djinni. I think they are too pretty to get dirty in the garden. Although you could look very stylish when you gather the eggs or cut herbs.  :D

Cookie, a fabulous book - I love the Plenty and Plenty More ones I have.

I love his books too! McMich, there is a new book called Falafel for Breakfast by the guy who owns Kepos St Kitchen in Waterloo, Sydney. Check it out at the library (since I know you are trying to declutter). Very similar to Yotem's style of cooking - and delicious!

You never guess what??? Another pressie arrived from my SS - a gift voucher for T2 and another beautiful handmade card with a poem! I love tea and I'm amazed that SS knew that. You are very clever and very crafty SS - thank you very much x

It is obvious SS must have links to the North Pole to know such information CP.  ;D
