I was woken up my the doorbell today and the postman handing me a package - it was like Christmas! All the way from Alabama, U.S., to the west coast of Ireland.
The postal description said map, toy and book, but I also see sweets!
Chips! Or crisps as we call them. Never had this brand. Awesome!
And one's made of - alligator? Far out!
You can get some American sweets in Ireland but not crazy flavours so never even heard of these!
"Moon Pie. What a time to be alive." Didn't know this was a real thing either, just heard of it on the Simpsons.
And a map! My and my Secret Santa's shared passion - travel.
A better photo I later took of the card that also came with it. I didn't remember what I wrote on my Secret Santa bio thing other than liking travel and where I worked, so this was legit shocked and delighted to see a card with rays drawn on it!
AND OH MY GAWD! A RAY!! I squealed.
And a book! I started reading it immediately and feel back asleep with it on my face.
Thought the box was empty but there was in fact more Moon Pies hidden down the back!
Contacted Secret Santa @macbrews to say thanks and posting here to say it was really stellar and has brightened up the dreary January!

You're gonna want to nuke those moonpies for about 15-20 seconds. Makes for good eating. Shame he didn't send you an RC Cola to go with them

Make sure not to heat em for too long that will burn your mouth like lava! I just thought about toasting them over an open fire like a smore
