Arriving on my doorstep today was an unusually shaped package with Canada post markings on it. I knew at once it must be from my secret santa! The package was quite weighty so I did my best to handle it with care!

Opening up the initial wrapping I was greeted with some delicious candy bars (which I can't say I've ever tried before), a giftwrapped item and a card with greetings from Canada/Egypt!

Gently peeling away the paper, what met my eyes was an absolutely stunning handpainted artwork on wood. I had mentioned in my preferences that I love paintings of sailing boats and colourful landscapes, this was both and so much more. Now the hard part is to find the best place to proudly display it!

KatofSpades, you're a miracle worker and I'm absolutely in love with it, from the bottom of my heart thank you so much! It was well and truly worth the wait.
