My Colors 2016 Secret Santa was very interactive and asked lots of questions. I have found this to typically be a very good sign not only because it shows effort and thoughtfulness, but because it helps ensure a good match. Out of the three matches this go around, I was most excited for Colors, because of this. Which is kind of interesting, because when trying to think of what could be gifted in my favorite color, I was honestly least excited about this exchange.

Already anticipating this to be one of my favorite exchanges to-date, and not expecting it to be possible to be more delighted, I picked up my package today to find it waaaaaay heavier than a Merino wool scarf should be! What in the world?! ...did my Santa make a scarf for a giant? No, that's not possible. The box isn't that big!

The very next thing to catch my attention was the word Luftpost, which told me that this was likely from Austria, Switzerland, or Germany! It didn't take very long for my eye to spot Deutschland, and quickly thereafter:

1 glas of nutella

If you haven't tasted German Nutella, you might think me a bit strange. But, my heart immediately lept into my throat like I was on a first date! I was quite excited to find that I was reunited with my first love... real Nutella! Not the stuff they try to pass for Nutella in the United States!

Danke für das schöne Geschenk, mein liebes Fräulein /u/AnnaNass!

You have completely exceeded my expectations! The length of the scarf hadn't really occurred to me, but the size you chose (approximately 15cm x 109cm) is a perfect fit. Just long enough to do the job, without extra material to get in the way, get snagged, or bunch up under my jacket!
