I don't know who my santa is, which is a shame, because they deserve all the respect and recognition in the world for basically winning Arbitrary Day.

This has been without a doubt, hands down, my BEST redditgifts experience, and I don't even know where to start so I guess I'll go in chronological order.

It started with a package that was filled with so much amazing stuff like soup and chili mixes, candy, even a book on canning and preserving. (I can't wait to try some of the recipes in there! I had carrots left over from the sauerkraut I made that I added them to and now I'm like...pickled carrots? Let's do it.)

This package on its own would have been a great gift, however! My Santa was not done.

Next I received a GORGEOUS fountain pen. Pretty much all of my fountain pens are Chinese knockoffs I got from ebay except for the cheap Pilot Metropolitan I got, and this one knocks all of those out of the water. It's now the nicest pen I own! It's so beautiful!! And again, this would have been a complete and wonderful gift all on its own...BUT MY SANTA WAS NOT DONE.

I naturally looked at this pen and was like hmmm, I should get a new journal or something to write in with this pen. It deserves to have a special book of its own or something like that.

Well, my Santa must have been reading my mind, because today I came home and found this leather journal waiting for me. I love this style a lot and I'm really excited about writing in it.

But I also came home to something else. A tall black mystery box. My Santa had mentioned there was something they thought I would like but would probably never buy or ask for.......I can only assume this was it, because that's the perfect description of MY BRAND NEW SWORD.

Honestly?? This is the best day of my life. This is the best thing that ever happened to me. I don't know if I've ever felt this happy before. A SWORD.

Santa, whoever you are, I hope every single day of your life is awesome. I hope you see your favourite animal every day and always get your favourite food and that whatever you want in this world happens for you because WOW. Thank you so much!!!! If you ever need a liver or a soul or anything I am THERE for you.

(A. SWORD. Y'ALL.)
