Secret Santa, a.k.a. Miss Jenney, came to Vancouver!

Katie <sphyrapi...@fakeaddress.com>
I was sitting at home today, trying to get everything packed for my
trip, presents wrapped, kid fed and napped, etc. when a very nice elf,
dressed as a UPS guy, brought me a package. I wasn't expecting
anything else so I knew it was from my Secret Santa.
Sure enough, it was from Miss Jenney (a.k.a. Miss J3nn3y).
My two–year–old son helped me tear open the package and out fell a
bunch of bubble–wrapped presents. The first one was a coconut and
cocoa butter exfoliating shower gel. Jenney, you must have done some
Googling and found out that I LOVE coconut. Next was a
Cococare 100% cocoa butter stick. Smells so yummy! And it's a nice
size for keeping in my purse to use on the patches of dry skin I get
at this time of year. There was some H2O Citrus Squeeze Moisture
Boosting Body Balm – again, mmmmmmm!
And last but definitely not least, I was so excited to see a box with
the word "Prada" on it. Wow, I've never owned anything by Prada and
definitely didn't think I would any time soon. But now I'm the proud
owner of a box of 8–0.5oz Prada Shielding Tinted Balms SPF 15, in Tint
3 (which is called soft peach on the Neiman Marcus website). They're
the little individually packaged tubes. Jenney, you must also have
found out from Googling that I'm a total lip balm and gloss junkie.
The colour is great – it's a sheer my–lips–but–better peachy colour,
with a very subtle sheen. The texture is amazing, very moisturizing
and soft. It also has a very faint but nice vanilla cake scent. I
could see myself getting addicted to this balm.
Anyway, thanks so much, Jenney. It was a perfect SS gift and really
made my day. You also made my kid's day – he's having a great time
popping the bubble wrap!
And a big thanks for Jennifer for organizing this!
