Gifts

One of the (few) benefits of having a December birthday is getting double the presents within a couple weeks timespan.

Hurray for new reading material! I was also really excited about a number of new cookbooks (and kitchenware) that I received, but those had to stay in storage until our return....

Right up there with my love of food and books is my love of jewelry, and I was really really spoiled with bright shiny baubles this year!
