I got sent on an emergency out of country trip for work, and forgot to let the post office know before I went, so they started returning mail after the super tiny mailbox filled up  If you are my Santa and your box was returned, please hit me up via pm. I am MORE than happy to reimburse for shipping. Sorry!If you are my Santa and you haven't sent anything yet, awesome! Looking forward to stuff!

I got a wonderful box today! It has two kinds of fudge (both very good!) And it has awesome bread (I love sweet bread for breakfast, and this one is elegant with brown butter!) And it has a hand-made hat! !!! Wrought, you made me a hat! You are the best Santa! Merry Christmas!

Yay! I'm so glad it found you on time and that you enjoyed it! I was baking for two SS boxes and I made the mistake of cutting the PB fudge when it was still really soft, so I left it on the counter to cool down and firm up. Between Mr. W and myself sneaking pieces, well, let's just say that what you ended up with was more like a third of the original batch, not half. :-)

BACON FAT GINGERSNAPS. I REPEAT: BACON FAT GINGERSNAPS. Also, a bottle of white tarragon vinegar and a slab of marinated salmon. But mostly bacon fat gingersnaps. Oh my god they are so good. But who do I have to thank? Santa included a real name but no forums name. Step forward, Santa, and show thyself!

My package left the country yesterday in the early wee hours, after spending several days chilling at a postal warehouse about 15km from my house, for no good reason that I can fathom. Unless we get a Christmas miracle from customs and the USPS I doubt my santee will get their stuff before Christmas, despite the original shipping quote

Dalstrs blew up my mailbox with a package of fantastic 3 kinds of bread, an assortment of cheeses he smoked, hummus, some stuffed pickled eggplant yumminess and candy! You rock bud. Now I know what brands to buy at my local middle eastern shop. Now what's the best brand of Ayvar?

I got a thing in the mail from Liquid Communism!  I'll post pics in the morning, but I just want to say the jerky is GODDAMN AMAZONG. Also, I'm drunk. BUT THAT IS A GIVEN, SO. Santee, I'm finishing yours up tomorrow, and hopefully sending it out as well; I'm working on rolling out a new menu, so work has been hell for a week. Hope you loving love liquor and chocolate, because I certainly.

Santee, I have taken the lazy way out and just ordered you something nice that should get to you before Christmas. If I can find some time this weekend, I'll also ship you a little somethin' somethin', but no guarantees about when it will get there.

Dear Santee, I mailed my package today and it should (supposedly) arrive by the 23rd. I hope all of my treats arrive in one piece. I did send you booze in mason jars and attempted to package them as best I could, so if for some reason something goes terribly wrong I will send you something else!

So far I've both cut myself on a mandoline (had to throw that ginger out) and flipped a pan of buckeyes onto the floor in my attempts to make things for this. It's the thoughts and injury that count, right?

I'm sorry Santee! Due to extreme unforeseen consequences(my oven stopped working  ), I have not been able to ship out your goodies yet. BUT, the issue has been dealt with, and I'll be trying to make all of the things this weekend, and hopefully I can get it out monday.

Dear Santee, This month has been kicking my rear end and I will not be able to ship out your package until tomorrow, but you're only a couple states away so it should get to you before the new year for sure. The good news is that I have been gradually accumulating more and more stuff to send you. Hope you like spicy!!

I got a gay thing in the mail! Wonder what's in it...  OMG, look at all this rad as gently caress stuff! There's a letter too!  I've already devoured the jerky, which was pretty goddamn good, I'm guessing you only used salt, pepper, and maybe a little sugar for seasoning? The summer sausage is about half gone, that is some good stuff man! The fudges are great, as are those nifty marshmallow fluff things. I'm going to get around to trying the bbq sauce, might do a brisket or a pork butt in the next few days. Thanks again Liquid Communism! Sorry it took me so long to post the pics! Santee, your stuff is completed, you will get it before new years, sorry it's coming late! But it's pretty goddamn good, totally worth the wait.

Salt, cracked pepper, worcestershire, and a little sugar, yeah, smoked a bit with hickory and cherry wood because that's what I had in the smoker. The marshmallow fluff things are pecan divinity. Sorry about the tape, it was what I had lying around. Glad you liked it!

Unless we get a Christmas miracle from customs and the USPS I doubt my santee will get their stuff before Christmas, despite the original shipping quote It IS a Christmas miracle! The package arrived yesterday, and what was in it from the lovely Spadoink?  Delicious baked goods (everyone else in the apartment was told to ASK before eating it all, particularly the peanut brittle) and traditional Newfoundland Christmas candy (it made me a little homesick - not because I'm from Newfoundland, but in Idaho there's a candy bar that you either love or loathe called an "Idaho Spud" (http://www.idahospud.com/bar-idahospud.html) that's marshmallow, chocolate and coconut, and I love them). Along with the tasty treats was a zip drive with molasses cookbooks and a Newfoundland Christmas album - I learned that Christmas music in Canada is just as schmaltzy as it is in the US  And best of all (because of timing), Canadian maple mustard. Little did Santa know that I've got a corned beef cooking sous vide, and will be making homemade pretzels to go with for Christmas, and so the mustard will have pride of place at the table. Good job, Santa! Thank you Spadoink, you spent a lot of time on this, and I love it all. From one law firm minion to another, Merry Christmas!

I got a present! (Several days ago, but life has been crazy, so sorry for not thanking you sooner). WhoIsYou sent me a whole box full of amazing things. Apricot, peach, and grape jams/jellies, apple butter, chile sauce, pâté de fruits, cocoa nib brittle, and a wonderful set of scrapers and spatula. My family has already demolished the pâté de fruits and cryovaced brittle (I am currently hoarding everything else in a secret spot so I can enjoy it later). Thank you so much!!!!! To my Canadian santee, I'm sorry I'm so lame, your box went out yesterday and should be there within 6-10 business days. Hopefully customs doesn't hold it up too long. I promise you didn't get grinched I'm just a scatterbrained Santa who somehow overlooked that shipping to a whole nother country takes more than 2 days

I have received a package from SAFETY DANCE! Two frozen Chicago deep dish pizzas! This will feed my boyfriend's horde of brothers tonight. Thank you! I think my ex's roommate used to have these shipped to him once a month, so I bet they'll be delicious.

Chef de Cuisinart, thank you so much! On the menu: Rum truffles (regrettably, the bag split in transit and they were a bit broken up but I'm sure they are delicious nonetheless) Habanero BBQ sauce Habanero "fuckin" salsa (label on jar lid appreciated) Desert honey (of which I thought you misspelled "dessert" but then realized it was honey from the loving desert in Mexico) A delicious looking chocolate bar I can't wait to eat while drunk later tonight Finally...a loving signed copy of Medium Raw by Anthony Bourdain!!! Where the gently caress did you get that?? I cannot wait to read it. I just got my girlfriend into No Reservations and Parts Unknown and she snapped it up before I even got a chance to get my hands on it. We just got back tonight from Xmas with her family in Florida and she was wanting tacos so we're going to eat the poo poo out of your salsa. Thank you so much and Merry Christmas!!!

So this is disappointing, I learned today that my Santee's package was returned...only problem is I didn't get it back, they sent it to the house numbered 4250 instead of 4520. I'm so sorry Santee, I had thought it got there in time for Christmas but it didn't even make it out of my state . I'm getting another package sent ASAP.

Holy Crap! My husband and I were sitting in our apartment watching a terrible movie (Dark Shadows, don't watch it) when there was a heavy rapping on the door. As it was after 9pm, we were both a little concerned, however, it turned out to be a Canada Post package delivery guy who must have confused am with pm, and was trying to deliver a package for ME! Kenning thank you! Five packages of various dried chiles that smell lovely and that I am excited to use, and two big ziplocs of homemade Christmas cookies! In addition to delivering deliciousness, the package arrival helped us to realize how terrible the movie was, so we could stop watching it, ahah! We ate cookies instead I can't find the cord for our camera so despite taking some lovely blurry shots of all the goodies, I have to wait to upload them, which makes me sad, because everything is fantastic! Thanks again! Husband found the cord! Now with photo:

Guess what showed up this morning! A box from you with some crushed (but still awesome) pecan rosemary shortbreads, homemade beef jerky, some Stroopwaffels from the Netherlands and some Trader Joe's goodies. I don't know if you knew this, but TJ's stuff is pretty hard to come by here, I think there's a store that sells it somewhere in town, but that may be a Canadian urban legend. I also don't know how you knew about my love of cookie butter, I make it a point to stock up every time I'm in the states so I'm beyond stoked to have another jar to add to my stash. Thanks for the awesome haul anti femi nazi!
