HOLY COW, you guys. My santa killed it.

First of all, she sent me a message to let me know my package was on the way. Communication is key! I love when Santas message, just in case there's ever an issue so you can talk to each other!

Secondly, just LOOK at these beautiful presents! I was so flabbergasted when I opened the package to see all of these wrapped gifts staring up at me. I fully intended on letting them live under my tree for a while, but my cat was riled up about them! She kept biting them and tearing the paper.

Additional notes: My santa was from Salem, MA, so my presents had a local flair for witchcraft, mystery, and whimsy - totally perfect for me! The presents all had personal notes attached to them explaining why they were selected; so much care was put into this!

Let's jump into the goods:

Catnip caves for the biter! Paper bags that release catnip scent upon movement? She is going to absolutely LOVE these.

Magical herbs! I think this is what was riling up the cat. They were very scent-y through the gift wrap.

Spices! Smoked bourbon sugar, and honey chipotle rub. Both smell amazing and I can't wait to use them. There was also a business card from "David J. Bowie" and I TOTALLY think he missed the mark by not naming his shop "Spice Oddity." /rimshot

Gifts from my Santa's favorite giftshop: a pomegranate and spruce candle, an adorable felted wreath, and unicorn socks!

A block of maple sugar from my santa's Thanksgiving trip to Quebec! This sounds AMAZING. Oatmeal, here I come.

A challenging puzzle game called The Sherlock! I'm lacking in spatial critical thinking skills, so this is the perfect way to hone my ability! I've solved three puzzles so far out of 52. This should keep me occupied for a while. The box is beautiful, too.

Oh, and a card! My line of work requires me to handle and quote projects on many different paper types every day, so if anyone could appreciate the nice paper stock this was on, it was this girl.

This present is 11/10. I feel very spoiled and lucky to have had such a great RedditGifts Secret Santa experience this year!

Happy holidays, all.
