THANK YOU! I got home late tonight to find a package waiting for me on my bed. I saw that it was addressed to "Book_Pirate" and had a mini spazz attack. I had not been expecting something to come this early! I considered waiting for Christmas a grand total of about 10 seconds, but then I saw the return address was from a place called "Perpetual Kid". Holidays be damned! I'm opening this thing now! You have no idea how awesome those gifts are! Seriously! The first thing: measuring cups, but in the shape of matryoshkas (Russian Nesting Dolls). I actually have my own set of real ones and I love them! Now incorporate that with food, and come on...it's win-win. Not just that, but I HATE (with a passion) my mom's measuring cups. They're at an angle and I can never really measure a half by eye. Now I don't need to! I have my own measuring cups! I'm baking a pie on Saturday, and guess what I'll be using! :-D Second is instant snow! I cannot tell you how many times I have added the instant snow on ThinkGeek to my cart, only to take it out again. I've been wanting this stuff for a while. Not only that, but they just said on the news today that we might not be getting any snow this Christmas, here in Michigan. I'm not a huge fan of snow because I hate driving in it, but I still want a white Christmas! Well, let's just say I think we all know what will happen if I don't see any snow on the 25th... Your note was so sweet and nice. Thank you. I can't say it enough. They actually printed it on a sticker, so I put it on the inside of the box for the measuring cups so that I'll see it every time I use them. I love that not only are they cool gifts, but they also represent something from you. Double whammy!

These gifts would have been PLENTY, and they're so awesome. I can't even imagine the awesomeness that is in store for part 2...so unnecessary, but highly anticipated.

This made my night so much more epic!
