Chat about Secret Santa Presents!

[Amy :-)]

You do realise, Amy, that this could become bigger than Ben Hur by December . . . . .

Since I don't have a clue who Ben Hur is, that phrase doesn't scare me Ignorance is bliss!!

Sweet Amy.....oh to be so young again...

[DizzyGirl]

Yes please Amy. It seems like I have missed so much whilst away.

May I ask how the WA retreat went?

[Amy :-)]

I'll put you down Dizzy

The retreat was awesome! Have you seen this thread? There are lots of photos and things here: http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=11021.0
Gert and SueJen were the main photographers. They did a great job. The tour was fantastic, it was lead by a couple of really funny guys. The goodie bags were amazing too. Here is a thread about them: http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=11054.0 We had lots of fun

I am, as usual, waaayyy behind in all of this (I had to do a search to see what CRAFT meant  ). However I thought it might be time to own up.

The very clever Aussie Brenda was my secret santa. My apron and food cover were hand made by Aussie Brenda and they are absolutely gorgeous. Beautifully made with beautiful fabrics. I'm not sure my amateur photos do them justice. Thanks again AB

I sent my SS gift to WA. Yes henny penny traversed this wide brown land and (thankfully) arrived in one piece. Hi CP (waves)

Thank you Amy for organising, and add me to the 2013 SS list too please

A little bit before your time, Amy.  Ben Hur was an epic movie made in the late 50's  . . . it was a huge production and so the saying "bigger than Ben Hur" kind of evolved . . . .

Is that all GF? I was hoping for something a bit more exciting than a movie....

Hi djinni373   very clever undercover SS. I had no idea at all. Once Yvette said whose SS she was I just didn't know who it could be. Love my little Henny Penny x

Who knew Australia Post would join in the fun The ladies at the PO I went to were lovely but thought I was a bit strange sending a SS present to WA. Glad you like henny penny. Is she indoors or outdoors?

I would love to take part in next years SS. Can't remember if I've already said this? Just ignore this post if I've already said I will participate  Amy would you please send me a reminder closer to Christmas? 

[DizzyGirl]

Thanks for letting me know about the retreat thread. I loved looking at all the photos. It seems like everyone had a great time. It made me soooo jealous. I must go to the next one.

Well it's in Adelaide late August DG.
