Opening my box of gifts from my rematch Santa, I was met, first, with a Trick. My brain was tricked into thinking I had made a wish list that I had forgotten about (but never actually existed)! This is where the Treat comes in... and, boy were there treats! My Santa so thoughtfully picked out gifts that, not only were perfect for me in every way, but met my picky demand of purposeful and useful gifts, as I am trying to minimize the amount of "stuff" I have in my life.

Unbeknownst to my Santa, I experienced another "trick" with the treat of a T-Shirt they had picked out for me. I have an upcoming Disney trip and stayed up far too late the night before receiving my box looking at T-Shirts for the occasion. Indecisive and tired, I purchased nothing and went to bed. Imagine my surprise when the choice was made for me! Santa picked out the softest shirt in one of my favorite shirt colors. And featuring two of my favorite Disney villains, as well!

Just as I thought my outfit was settled for my trip, I saw the cutest eyes peeking out at me from inside the box. A treat! The cutest owl backpack I've ever seen. And it matches perfectly with my new shirt--I am so excited to wear them together!

I love owls and Disney very much, but not in an "in your face" kind of way. I like my love for these things to be sprinkled around my home and in my life in such a way that it seems normal at first, but allows those to slowly realize how much owl and Disney I have. Hidden in plain sight kind of thing. Well, again, my mind reader Santa found the perfect addition to my hidden owl collection. Owl mason jar drinking glasses (with straws!) that are SO cute and just what I never knew I wanted. I have been slowly replacing my dishes and glasses with ones that "bring me joy" as they say, and these are sure to bring me and others joy each time they use them.

Thank you so much, Rematch Santa, for your kindness and thoughtfulness in this Trick-or-Treat Exchange. It's Santas like you that make such a difference in our cozy little RedditGifts community, and you are appreciated more than you could know.

I will owl-ways love you too!
