Dear Darling SS...The only reason I've been able to hold off on the wrapped presents is the excelent book your package contained. I am enjoying it very much, just the right kind of reading for picking up, then putting down when the stove needs to be stoked or the dishes, really....finally....have to be done. Have travelled over 3 continents and 3 centuries in the past few days...fascinating. So far, however, I haven't a clue as to who(m) you might be...I am a dunce at this sort of thing...and the suspense is beginning to tell. Will sit down with a cold towel and try to ward off early gratification but feel a sort of....must...open...presents...NOW.... coming over me.
