Secret Santa 2019 - BOB's Twelfth

[D.L.Ruth]

Sleigh is airborne

 

[SourMilk]

Sled is cocked and loaded and ready to deliver some holiday cheer soon to one good little boy. HoHoHo :santa:

 

[Carlos]

I am returning to the land of the living. This cold thing is not at all what I would wish on anyone. I hope everyone's packages will soon be on their way, if not already on their way.

I also hope your plans for the holidays are on target for friends and family. I was becoming concerned about that myself. We have gatherings planned with friends. I just knew that if I had gone in to the Urgent Care yesterday, I most likely would have ended up in the hospital for a few days. That would have screwed up the whole season.

That jolly old elf needs to kick those reindeer into high gear and get moving. We could all use some Christmas cheer.

Ho Ho ho! :santa: :rendeer: :rendeer: :rendeer: :rendeer: :rendeer: :rendeer: :rendeer: :rendeer: :rendeer: :rendeer: :rendeer:

GeoffC, you must have really been a good boy when counted this year. Those are some great blends. The trout stream is tasty in my opinion. Nice pipes too. Congratulations and merry Christmas

 

[BriarBeagle]

Santa is dishing out some more than generous gifts this year. :santa:

 

[Cerfer]

It's been unseasonably warm these past couple of weeks so I gave the reindeer one last massive carb load before taking off to parts east named what most people associate with parts south.

The first radar report was just emailed to my phone. I do believe that trail is made up of Captain Black Grape molecules. I also believe that those damn reindeer aren't following my directions.

It was a long rough day at work today so this came a the perfect time. Oh my gosh this is the definition of "over doing it". Way over the top here. Thank you so very much Santa, this will make this week (which is starting out af a rough one) a bit easier to deal with.

Going to take me a while to type all this or.
50g tins of:
Peterson Balkan Mixture
Dunhill London Mixture
Sasieni Balkan
Hearth & Home White Knight
The Balkan Sobranie
Bill Bailey's Balkan Blend
McClelland Blue Mountain

2oz tins of:
C&D Black Frigate (was running out so perfect timing)
G. L. Please Charing Cross

A nice Missouri Meerschaum Little Devil Cutty Corn Cob Pipe, looks like the perfect size for the ride to work. Two packs of bristle pipe cleaners.

From Jungle Jim's (never heard of it but it all looks great):
Gourmet dark and milk chocolate
Jungle Blend Coffee
Spicy Jerkey

Some Cafe Du Monde coffee and John Wayne Hot Chocolate mix.



And a nice handwritten card

Now I need help deciding what to open first, well, after the chocolate of course lol.

Again thank you very much this was really an exceptional hit and greatly appreciated!

D.L.Ruth you must of been on the good boy list. But no captain black grape?

 

[D.L.Ruth]

D.L.Ruth you must of been on the good boy list. But no captain black grape?

You keep talking about that grape and you may be sorry lol

You’re right I really do need to stop the grape thing. At first I thought it was a joke. But it’s not

 

[History Prof 1861]

Mmm Grape!

Isn’t C&D Captain Bobs blend grape flavored?

 

[swhipple]

:rendeer:  The reindeer and Santa dropped something off on the porch this morning. Can't wait until this afternoon to get open it!  Ho! Ho! Ho! :santa:

Oh and someone needs to check their bushes because Santa told me the package I sent was delivered.

 

[Carlos]

Santa is winging it down the road today from the midwest. I have not sat down and double-checked, but I suspect that everything is on the way, or delivered. Check those bushes along side the porch! Some of y'all get some fierce winds. Been known to happen.

Ho Ho Ho! :santa:

 

[swhipple]

Apparently, I've been better than I thought.    Santa dropped a fantastic package on the porch today. Came with a handwritten card and a nice selection of tobaccos, as well as some tasty treats.  Thank you Santa.

Tobacco:
Ken Byron - Smooth Criminal
Ken Byron - Holiday Road
Esoterica - Dunbar
C&D - Chenet's Cake
H&H - Marble Cake

Food:
Tupelo honey
Lucky Goat Coffee

I'm looking forward to having some of the coffee this weekend. The wife has already claimed the Peppermint patties and I think she may have already finished them off. For this evening, I'm planning on breaking into the Holiday Road it sounds delicious.

That's a heck of a big canister of Chenet's Cake! Nice haul
