My SS took my insanely long and odd list of likes/dislikes, and got me an assortment of wonderful things!

The oddest thing on my like/dislike list was "miniature versions of things, specifically portly animals like pigs, dogs, owls, etc." My SS translated this into 4 chubby owls and a full set of hand-painted Arctic miniatures!

My SS also got me a delicious sparkling red wine from Italy (I noted that sparkling reds are my fav) accompanied by chocolate strawberries and cherries. What my SS didn't know is that I love these but rarely get to enjoy them as my husband doesn't like fruit...like, any fruits...its sad :(

And finally, my SS got me a wine bottle opener, vacuum sealer, and pourer. My husband and I have been talking about getting a vacuum sealer for almost the past year, but never seemed to get around to buying one. This was perfect!

We opened the sparkling red this evening and enjoyed a few glasses before vacuum sealing it for tomorrow. Thanks, SS!
