This is it. Santa is real. I was very excited for this exchange, but also just a tiny bit nervous. I have a lot of weird kitchen gadgets and supplies, and I didn't provide a whole lot of information about what I already have, or what I might want. I pretty much just said that I like to bake more than anything. And somehow, my Santa read my damn mind and was like, "I bet she doesn't have a blowtorch."

SANTA YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG I'VE WANTED A BLOWTORCH.

I've browsed them and had them on various wish lists for SUCH A LONG TIME, but I just haven't been able to get a nice one for myself. AND NOW I HAVE ONE.

I'M SO EXCITED. I can't believe it. This is amazing. Santa, you are amazing.
