<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Theodosius, post: 2937817, member: 77077&quot;]Very nice gifts received by everyone!</p><p><br /></p><p>I am late in posting my loot because we had the perfect storm of holiday parties, our church chili cookoff, and wife&#039;s work potluck party.&nbsp; We spent the first half of the day cooking and the second half driving around town and eating.&nbsp; Now I can present my awesome Saturnalia gifts. The box they arrived in was much bigger than I expected.&nbsp; The box rattled in a way that sounded like Legos.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]714849[/ATTACH] </p><p>Opening the box, first up was this cool chocolate chip cookie tin tree ornament!</p><p>[ATTACH=full]714850[/ATTACH]</p><p>Followed by a very nice greeting card containing a coin (later!).</p><p>[ATTACH=full]714851[/ATTACH]</p><p>Followed by a hot cocoa tree ornament and a homemade lollipop.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]714852[/ATTACH]</p><p>The secret of the rattling is revealed in another favorite treat.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know why but I connect the holidays with eating nuts.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]714853[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>These are all very tasty treats and much appreciated, the finale is the coin. I have seen other CTers post these before, but this is the first one I have ever had. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]714855[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Roman Republic</p><p>Q.
