From minutes after matching I knew that Secret Santa 2014 was going to be a wild ride. I was orangered very quickly after being matched and to my delight my Santa informed me that we shared many common interests and he was excited to choose something for me.

As the weeks went on we corresponded on and off, and my Santa was so courteous that he wanted to know my Courier preference, Can you believe that?! (it's also at that point that I kind of figured I was dealing with a fellow Canadian).

Last last week I received another communication that really got me excited, he mentioned that something in my profile was a family speciality and he had go talk to someone to flesh something out. Needless to say I was on the edge of my seat with anticipation.

Today, the package arrived, and at 7 lbs, it's possibly the biggest package of Pure Unadulterated Christmas Awesome that I have EVER received.

Not only did my Santa get me fricken COSMIC ENCOUNTER but he also got me one of the Expansions (COSMIC INCURSION) AND a load of SWEET PADDOCK WOOD BREWING swag!

I'm absolutely floored at my Santa's generosity and I know that out of the hundreds of thousands of participants, I was matched with one of the best.

Merry Christmas Santa, you have absolutely made my day and I hope you and yours enjoy a safe and happy Christmas and New Years!
