My Secret Santa done good! The first thing I saw when I opened the box was this great letter that really showed that they put a lot of thought into my gift. It explained each gift- the framed photograph is one that they took and they explained the history behind the stone lion in the photo. They gave me their recipe for pumpkin cookies which I can't wait to try and mentioned that they didn't know if I can get canned pumpkin here so they sent me a can. You can't get it here in Scotland (as far as I'm aware) so thanks! I love trying out American recipes but often I can't get some of the ingredients so it showed a lot of thought to include that. They also sent some really cute Christmas-themed cooking accessories- an oven glove, a whisk and a couple of snowman spatulas. I actually really need a second oven glove so this will be put to immediate use when I cook dinner after I write this post! To Kill a Mockingbird is one of my favourite books but I don't actually own a copy of it so I'm really happy that they gave me that. And I'm excited to eat the candy cane as I have never had one before (you can get those here- I've just never had one for some unknown reason!).

Thank you so much Secret Santa!
