    There was no card or note as to who sent this box, but thank you unnamed saint!

    That was from me! There were no gift option, but I am glad it came in good use!

    Very much, i keep finding myself cooking and thinking "But i don't have one of those" but I do now!

    Well I am a dummy and did not get some things ordered in time. As a result some of y'all will be having a Late Christmas. Sorry!

    Welcome! There should be one other package, it says it’s been delivered but it was separate from that one.

    Do you wanna send me the tracking info? I can fuss at them if needed. They opened up an Amazon warehouse nearby and stuff has been so much worse somehow?

    It says it was delivered to your address at 12:13 PM by USPS. The other says it came later, you got the one that came later, hope someone didn’t steal a package from y’all.

    That's odd. They didn't even get to our house until 5! Hurm. I'll poke the neighbors

    My usps delivers Amazon packages all day, multiple times outside of regular mail

    They also like to say things are delivered when they're not. Like, hours or days before

  • BrainleechBrainleech 機知に富んだコメントはここにあります Registered User regular
    I find it interesting that Amazon pays the USPS to deliver on Sunday
    But my mailman finds it well discourteous that we will pick up the packages at the curb right from the truck

    Ok now I’m happy both have arrived and I can breath a sigh of relief. A brief stupid story about that thing. I was going to just buy you the bundled one, but it wouldn’t have arrived until January which I found utterly unacceptable (I mean really, who delays a pokemon champion like that)? So I found if I ordered each separately though a bit pricier, they would arrive today, which I’m glad to see worked out after all. Anywho, enjoy! My wife and I love it (she has eevee and I have Pikachu). ^_^

    Saints present! No name, it just said Secret Saint, but, um, holy shit?

    I just got a bunch of clothes making tools and materials yesterday, so this is amazing?? I've been looking at sewing machines for a while, but the only ones on my price range have been at the thrift store and I don't trust them to work (since I don't know how to use one yet). This one seems completely banging? It's huge! I have some friends that said they can teach me how to use it and I can't wait to learn

    Thank you, anonymous Saint! If I knew who you were, I'd make you like...a neck tie? That seems my level. I'm seriously so amped and excited for this. I've wanted to learn for forever, and this combined with the other stuff I got yesterday (muslin, fabric cutting tools, pins, measuring stuff, etc) has lit a fire under my ass to learn

    Hey, Secret Saints!

    I got a second slow cooker tonight.

    But the mystery deepens, because apparently this slow cooker was sent from me, to me.

    BUT it has the gift note that I got when I got Dinosaur Empire?! Except, again, from me

    And it's not on my amazon orders. And the date on the invoice is from one week ago, which would be well after I got my first slow cooker, and thus, bizarre that anyone would gift me one, especially since I took all the slow cookers off my wish list prior to that.

    DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT KINDA BESAINTING IS OCCURRING?

    It sounds like some time travel may have been involved.

    Have you been craving chocolatized dairy products?

    I've never craved dairy or chocolate in my life, and certainly not both at once

  • Brovid HasselsmofBrovid Hasselsmof [Growling historic on the fury road] Registered User regular
    I have no explanation for that but I have had to freeze my card because somebody has been trying to use it on US Amazon, so maybe the time traveler stole my card details to buy you a slow cooker.

  • Raijin QuickfootRaijin Quickfoot I'm your Huckleberry YOU'RE NO DAISYRegistered User, ClubPA regular
    No. I have it on good authority that the second slow cooker is a gift and is correct.

    I do know there was some weird shipping shenanigans with it though.

  • lonelyahavalonelyahava Call me Ahava ~~She/Her~~ Move to New ZealandRegistered User regular
    Two show cookers is awesome.

    An especially if they're different sizes or shapes.

    I've got a big tall one and a shallow oval one. I use the tall one for soups and the shallow one for things like roasts or chicken dinners.

    Also multiple are useful if you're looking into doing some preserving or jam making. Or if you're having a big party and you can do chili in one and mulled cider in the other.

  • Raijin QuickfootRaijin Quickfoot I'm your Huckleberry YOU'RE NO DAISYRegistered User, ClubPA regular
    I think we have like... 4 slow cookers?

    I don't know why. We only ever use the one.

  • lonelyahavalonelyahava Call me Ahava ~~She/Her~~ Move to New ZealandRegistered User regular
    Parties.

    Potluck dinner.

    Wool dying.

    That last one might just be me though.

  • Raijin QuickfootRaijin Quickfoot I'm your Huckleberry YOU'RE NO DAISYRegistered User, ClubPA regular
    Oh I'll dye some wool!

    :winky:

  • lonelyahavalonelyahava Call me Ahava ~~She/Her~~ Move to New ZealandRegistered User regular
    it's supposedly really easy!

    Just need some animal fibre yarns, like wool or alpaca or silk, so some blend of the above, some food colouring, and an acid. usually either vinegar or citric acid. Then apply your colour and then heat it up.

    I'll get around to trying it one of these days.

    Secret Saints is giving to people who need it, without getting anything in return. Secret Satans is just Secret Santa, with a better name.

    Secret Saiyan is what Goku was before he was told where he came from.

    For sure. I used the microwave this morning to zap a quick breakfast snack, it works great. I'm probably going to open a mead tonight for new years eve. Thanks again!

    Oh I'll have to ask the forums for a good whole wheat bread recipe for some of this flour, though I can probably come up with a decent one myself.

    The hard thing will be looking for an easy enough recipe for this cake flour, I'm leaning towards some kind of cupcake recipe?

  • Garlic BreadGarlic Bread i'm a bitch i'm a bitch i'm a bitch i'm a Registered User, Disagreeable regular
    Got some presents! A Switch eshop card with the specific instructions to buy Undertale (which is exactly what I'm gonna do, I've been having an rpg itch), and a Petco gift card to treat my puppies with! There was also a nice card, and a note saying something else was delayed? The holidays last even longer!

    Thank you so much, @IronKnuckle's Ghost! You made my day go from bad to awesome

  • TallahasseerielTallahasseeriel Registered User regular
    I opened the bigger of the meads to share with friends on new years eve during the back drop. It didn't survive the night it was a big hit. Very good mead.

    I also had some of the kolsch beer. Also very good.

    What I'm saying is I had a hangover yesterday.
