Once upon a time there was a wise, magical humpty named Dana Jean.

Each year, she chose a mortal being who needed enchantment sprinkled on their lives.

In the distance, she spotted a hard-working paper maker in Germany named Frank.

She wanted to give him the gift of time and choice, so she sent him:

and his spirits soared!


And Dana Jean saw that he needed companions, so she gave him a loyal

for quiet, easy friendship.


For those times when his wild itch needed a back scratcher, she gave him...

Frank looked upon these exotic creatures and his spirits soared!



Dana Jean gifted him beautiful music



and delighted his senses with the delicious tastes and smells of

His thirst was quenched with the finest...

His mind craved nourishment also, so she filled the need with creativity and curiosity.

Every man needs a quest so she sent him on a journey that led him to a faraway land.

Frank's excitement was great! Once again, his spirits soared.

But Dana Jean saw that the joy of these items was fleeting.

Suddenly, she knew the best gifts of all!

She reached into space and grabbed a handful of

stardust!

and she scooped up two or three

She bottled the warmth and brilliance of

And she made him an explorer!

Ich wünsche Ihnen die Magie des Staunens und der Entdeckung! Gutes Essen, gute Gesellschaft und Frieden. Frohe Weihnachten Osnafrank!



I wish you all the magic of wonder and discovery!

Good food, good companionship and peace.

Merry Christmas Frank!

Part one

Oh Holy Moses, where do I begin?

This is our final ever SKMB Secret Santa... (How can this possibly be?!) so I am trying to go all out. I just know there will be special things that I have forgotten, but please know, that I wish the very best for you... and I wish all that your heart desires, today and always.

To my very special giftee: Dana Jean

We begin where all good news stories should... with regeneration of mind, body and spirit. Yes, this may just look like any other ordinary Laundromat, but uh.... no.
This, my friend... is the place you will go to regenerate each and every cell in your body (it's okay, I've tried it and it's perfectly safe! I only very infrequently drool out the side of my mouth... and pocket tissues have taken care of that)
When you step out of the "Regenerator 2031" (it's from the future) you will be like new! Energy! Thick, strong hair, (and nails) brand new everything... each cell just like a baby's.. only not little, and you also will not have to re-learn shiit.
Imagine leaping from your bed in the morning, dancing and singing your way to the bathroom, then the coffee machine... oh yes, my friend... I have gifted you YOUTH! (without the emotional baggage and pimples)

Regenerator.jpg

Now that you're brimming with renewed vitality, let me just top up your resources with the EVERLASTING BAGGY.

Money.jpg

I know now that you're wealthy you could buy whatever you wanted, so my gifts may seem unnecessary... but, well... you see, I know you too well and you would probably spend time and money on everybody BUT yourself. So... sit back, Missy because I got you some cool shyte!

A new laptop.

dims.jpg

A new big TV to hook your laptop up to, so that you get the most out of... (you'll have to wait and see)

TV.jpg


A new room for you and your gamer.

Gaming room.jpg

OH! I got you some new lights for your tree!

Pink lights.jpg

You can't have Christmas without....

Christmas dinner.jpeg

and flowers...

33386

Uh... now that you can eat anything....

Donuts.jpg

Tacos.png

Okay, I think I've probably broken Stephen's MB, so I'll come up with part II in the next post.

Part II Dana Jean

So, my original idea before finding that totally cool bag of money, was to stuff Deejers into one of these and have Marsha smuggle her into NZ when she comes for a holiday in 2022.

Travel case.jpg

But then I find out today that Deej gets claustrophobia, so I thought maybe we'd just go with this...

Passport.jpg

Yes girl, you're coming with Marsha for a roadie with the Kiwi.

Auckland.jpg

Harbour.jpg

Kyaking.jpg

Queenstown.jpg

Redwoods.jpg

Trekking.jpg

Waiheke.jpg

Can you just see our breakfasts....?

Breakfast outside.jpg

Oh boy.... filled my limit again.

Hang on... not finished yet.

Part III Dana Jean

Right, so we're still in New Zealand...

coffee-mountains-new-zealand.jpg

OH! Deej, we will go visit these guys... (Marsha can sleep-in on that day :biggrin2: )

Casketeers.jpg

Girl, I know holidays have to come to an end, but, I've organised some cool things for you to go home to.

These guys are located very conveniently near to your home, and they NEED you... (okay, I have NO idea of the landscape, so just go with this...)

OMGosh.jpg Baby goats1.jpg

Baby goats.jpg


I my not have mentioned earlier, but yeah... I've grown up a lot over the years (hahahahahahaha... almost choked on that) and sure.... I can share.
(So, that big screen earlier comes in handy now... though, I have spoken to him and he's fine with in-person too.)

Ewan.jpg

There is one last thing.... this guy mentioned the other day that he was sad this would be our last Secret Santa, and he would also miss any future opportunity of receiving new Pasta artwork, so... he wants to meet for coffee tea and the occasional catch-up, if that's alright with you?

SK.jpg

Girl, I wish you love, joy, health, peace and endless happiness... always.
Merry Christmas my friend.

Oh my holy lord. I am just...not speechless because I can always blabber....I'm just verklempt. I laughed....and laughed. I guffawed a couple times! These were all amazing. Just absolutely well thought out gifts for our very last special Secret Santa on our beloved board.

You do know me too well. The mystery is gone! I need to start surprising you!

I can't even begin to tell you how much this all means to me. Every single thing. Every. single. thing. You are my amazing friend.

I am going back through these and I'm just gobsmacked. The food, so deelish. I seriously wanted it all, but those donuts...those beautiful gorgeous donuts!

And I need a new laptop and No lie, I just looked at TVs at Costco last night! And Ewan....what can I say? He's won me over. I'll check out for myself if he's....well, never mind. We'll let that go. THe gaming room, my gamer and I would definitely enjoy that!

I love the rejuvenation machine, that was hilarious! The baby goats, the Tipenes!

I can smell the fresh air of your beautiful country. Kayaking, horseback riding, sightseeing, the pink lights, the dog carrier --- bwhaohoahaeohaohaa!! It did have air holes so it probably would've worked. Although my fat gut would've squeezed out the holes like a playdoh machine. The bag of money will come in handy with my new best friend, Mr. Plastic Surgeon.

I'm seriously just blown away. Your write up was first rate and everything. perfect.

And Stephen... that choked me up a lot. It really did. We've talked. You know.

I adore you.

I just had the most visual, visual.... "Although my fat gut would've squeezed out the holes like a playdoh machine..." :lol: (we have the same playdough bellahs... :laugh: )

Sigh... I need to get off my butt and go do some work, I haven't moved for hours :biggrin2:

FlakeNoir - that Secret Santa made the tears flow once I hit the goats. You guys are so special with each other. This is what will be missed the most when that final day arrives. Love, friendships.....Ka-Tet. We are all well met. You brought magic to the season!
My mind blows when I think of our final day, I just can't process this loss. ( a little sip at a time, or it's going to drown me)

The reality tries to settle in, then something tender touches the heart, and disbelief abounds. Consolation comes with the thoughts that Marsha can retire, and fade quickly at the friends that will be missed. The world has will moved on.

Oh girl, you should have seen me when I Googled "suitcase with holes in it"... my finger hovered over the enter button for quite some time, I was sure there'd be a knock at the door:
"Hello miss, and who're you planning on stuffing into a suitcase?" :biggrin2:

Oh... and the Ewan comment. :rofl:
