Cleaning my sewing room today, looking for the stuff I had put away for my box and my jingle bells as I wait for my name!

Plus, anything I haven't used in two years, patterns I am unlikely to make, etc is going on ebay as I make the proverbial churchmouse look flush right now!

So..... if I bring along some chocolate covered popcorn would you find a place for me in the hole?! (It is the good quality stuff!!!)
Still waiting for my name.....waiting....waiting..... did I ever tell you that patience is not one of my virtues!!
(Except when it comes to seams lining up!!)

I vote for Mimosas! Cooky always comes to the rescue! :thumbup:

I've got some little battery-powered tea lights, somewhere around here. If anyone happens to have a mirror or maybe a white umbrella, we can make the most of the little bit of light they give.

You betcha!!!!! :thumbup:

Oh, I got my name, now the fun begins, thanks Terri.

Checking in at work :( still no name. Did we ever get the real answer for the last game? Waiting for the next one. Also can some one find the Kahlua for my coffee? Well back to the paperwork.

Oh yum! My vote is for the mimosas also. I'll bring more orange juice and of course ice. Wonder when I will get my name? Wonder, wonder........

Oh Boy! Now its getting exciting!! Mimosas, popcorn and ice with my snickerdoodles and iced tea. Humm what are a few of my favorite things? You betcha! All of the above!

I just got my name and boy I bet I looked like a cartoon character with big bulging eyes. I'm so happy with my Santa name and I'm not telling the secret yet. This is going to be so much fun fun fun.

It feels just like Christmas eve when I was a little tot.

Dreamer what date will the Christmas carols begin?

Oh I love snickerdoodles, I have made them several times this year from an old cook book and my kids cleaned me out everytime. I think I got 2??? I'd come just for them alone.

Okay you all had me at sausage cheese balls !! I have some chocolate fudge from my great grandmothers recipe ( and I brought extra insulin down here with me because I KNOW I am going to need it ! You all bright the best stuff ! )

I still don't have mine either. Come sit by me, and we'll pass the time with a bottomless pitcher of Mimosas!

Just checked again! (sigh...)

Add me to the hole too. Still waiting for my name, so pass the Mimosa.

Anybody know how many are in this swap????? Might have to widen the Hole.

Maybe we should have a butler down in that hole.....you know, to pass around all the goodies, bring more drinks .... just a thought!!! sob...still no name for me....waiting, wondering, imagining!!!

Whew hew!!! I received my secret santa name.....the hunt is on!! Soooo exciting........

Oh wow....someone ELSE likes chocolate covered potato chips !!! ((- "pyffer3" - Hope all's well with you)) Usually when i mention those chips people put on their "YUK" faces. They are SOOOOOO good
.....and i make my "sunrises" with Sloe Gin instead of grenadine....YUM !!!!!!!
Also...last year my Mom sent us an inflatable couch for the pool....ok yes, crazy is hereditary in my family.... Do think that would fit in the hole???

So happy to get my santee name, now off to shop at the State Fair, wahoooooooooooo!
hugs,
dj

No name yet.....whine....whine... sob....sob that is sob as in cry cry! Did you think..! Oh no! Bet you thought ...WELL! Guess I'll go lounge in the hole. I "think" the butler's last name is Newton.

PenniF......good to see you are back! You'll have to bring the inflatable couch and make us some 'sunrises'!

You haven't seen the cabana boys yet???? They are soooo nice! Another coffee and Kahlua for me please, sorry Mimosa are to easy to spot at my desk. No name for me yet.:(

Cabana boys? How about a hot tub? I could use a massage too. Hide the mimosa in a Starbucks cup and no one can tell you aren't drinking coffee!

No name yet for me, either.

more names are out!!

puff puff puff puff puff puff puff ....... it's taking me some time to blow up the inflatable couch.

MizMelly.... your "signature" quote always makes me think of the Shel Silverstein poem "I'm writing this poem from inside a lion"....and i have to smile.

Thanks for all your hard work Terri......still waiting in "breathless"....you know, the couch thing.....anticipation.

Maybe the new game is that the last person to get their Santee name wins a prize? Hip hip hooray -- I'm still in the running! Penni when you get done blowing up that couch -- if you ever do -- come sit with me and we'll have a little wine and chocolate while the others are out shopping.

OMG -- Sausage cheese balls ???
Spread that on a glazed donut and it's every man's dream.

I'm still in the running for the prize then! I'll bring the cheese platter to go along with the wine and chocolate.

ok got my name,let the fun begin!!!!!

I'm still in the running, too. Can I sit on the couch too?

No fair! I still don't have my name! I'll just have to hop in the hole, relax on the partially inflated couch, drink mimosas and drown my sorrows in chocolate! Who's got Chocolate?

All apples now finished, I have Apple butter, cinnamon apple jelly, regular jelly and hot apple jelly. Isn't if a bummer how life gets in the way. Now time to sew on my mystery and have a glass of something. Whats hanging around here? Still no name so I'm still in the running for the last name.

Just put out more names.
Dedemac, you should have yours now...I think I sent yours.

Still no name. I'm gonna pack my Oreos and hang out with y'all in the hole....and wait.

I'll have more out later.

dedemac, I'm still waiting for my name too, but......I make homemade Kahlua by the batch. Made 2 batches today so they should last awhile...maybe a day or two

Jaba.you are too funny! I love Kahlua.Like drinking coffee milk.LOL Never had homemade must be wonderful.

woo hoo ! I got my name !! This is going to be sewwwwwww much fun !

Hmmm...excitedly waiting. Who will it be?!

I received my SS name. Now I can go shopping. Looking for ideas. Time to start stalking and do some sewing.

Precisely, how does one stalk, I mean research their SS?
