My Secret Santa sent me a little taste of Newfoundland this year! Wrapped in a box covered in patriotic Canadian Flag tape, I received the softest jam cookies ever, native peppermint candies, two local beers (that I'm extremely excited to try out when my friend comes over), and some pineapple crush. My secret Santa also included a somewhat creepy/funny Christmas tree ornament depicting a Newfoundland tradition, Mummers (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OqryeHRlOt4). I had a great time reading up on its history. I also kind of wish I grew up in Newfoundland now.

I think what takes the cake is the letter my Secret Santa wrote! It was hilarious, also very entertaining and heartwarming to read - thank you for taking the time to assemble this gift and show me the wonders of the east coast! :)
