Wow! Did Santa ever deliver on this one! I mentioned in my profile that I like to cook, and my Santa must have taken that to heart because they sent me a ton of awesome kitchen utensils sure to make my life easier. Not only that, but they were all wrapped up with some seasonal flair inside the box to boot. I had a blast with just the unwrapping alone!

No joke, I actually gave myself a paper cut getting one of the gifts open. Yes, I was that excited! A quick band-aid break later I was back at it, and there was plenty to enjoy.

A list of the awesome stuff my Santa sent:

-A Klean Kanteen 20oz Insulated Bottle (This will be used extensively while hiking)

-A pack of ramen with "insanely rich broth" (Other ramen broths are on notice)

-A nice grater

-A nifty chop and lift tool for veggies

-Some nice bowl scrapers

-An exterior mounted thermometer for keeping track of the temperature of food in the oven

-A 2-speed hand blender

-A high-quality bound journal of graphing paper

-A pack of Pokemon cards

-A decal with a mash-up of Gyarados and Blinky

-And of course a card with a note inside from my Santa

Thank you, Santa! I can tell you put a ton of effort into the gift-picking and wrapping, and it means a lot!
