A mysterious Amazon parcel arrived on December 20th. Thinking it too heavy and too big to be the DVD I had ordered, I ripped it open feverishly, just to find a gift-wrapped heavy object. By running my fingers over the edges (and from what I could see through the rip in the golden paper), I deduced that it had to be a book...

I read the card with a nice message from /u/bcseahag , but I waited until Christmas Eve to open it. I started from the rip and the back of a leather-bound book appeared :D

It was FIREFLY: A CELEBRATION, a large compendium of the 'Verse with many Interviews, Behind-The-Scenes articles, scripts and so on. It has over 300 pages, looks and feels very high quality, and the contents are terrific :D

I really love this present, and I think it'll keep me entertained for quite some time, so: Thank you, bcseahag :)

Oh, and the best part: There's still something local from BC on the way! :D

Update: It arrived! :D And it's awesome too! As the jiffy bag hinted, it contained chocolate and toy (nice handwriting, btw ;) ). I got a double pack of king sized Nestlé Coffee Crisp (never seen that bar before, but then again I live in the suburbs of Austria...), 40 grams (love the metric unit) of Wild Smoked Salmon Jerky, which I am really looking forward to, a postcard from Victoria, B.C. and a cool little Tardis with a light in it :D

Oh and of course, since my Secret Santa is Canadian, I also got the classiest bottle of Maple Syrup I've seen up to date! God how I love maple syrup! :D

All in all: THANKS bcseahag! You really were a great Secret Santa and really outdid yourself, thanks a bunch :)
