i got home tonight to see a box wrapped up with black electrical tape on the chair. there's a hand-written note on the side of the box:

"Jen, I hope you have a great Christmas! Tried my best to get you something you'd like.

Merry Christmas, your Reddit Pal Robo."

robo, you rock my world! you got me the kinds of things that i'd pass by and think "i should get that, but no... i can't right now."

winter/christmas cookie cutters (and there's one shape i just can't figure out. i think it's a reindeer head in profile)

the herb book - a complete guide to growing and using herbs

white chocolate cocoa mix in a glass snowman with a nice tight metal-clasp cover

bright orange freshprep paring knife... ALWAYS a necessity!
