Hey Secret Santa ~ my “grumpy” Santas look terrific on my Xmas table! Merry Christmas everyone! #SecretSantaAoNZ

Each book is well chosen - esp the two that cover Paris/NY & Japan: two cities & a country that I’ve been fortunate to visit. Love the visuals in the Paris vs NY book and can’t wait to delve into the Miyazawa. Thank you, too, for all the cards and thoughtful messages. Merry Xmas! #SecretSantaAoNZ

#SecretSantaAoNZ A thousand thank yous - each gift is perfect! It’s almost as though you can read my mind! I adore the ‘grumpy’ Santas (perhaps weary instead?) & the v. tasty-looking seasoning, which will be put to great use (as I’ve mastered the art of making my own bagels). Love the wee jar. (P.1)

Mini tree, maximum anticipation!🎄🎁 😊 #SecretSantaAoNz
