The goblin emperor by Katherine Addison. I am currently reading the book and I am in love with it. It is so good.

Post office bounty! 

Upper left, a jar of Raye’s Moose-a-maquoddy Molasses mustard from C (not sure if you wanted your handle listed, given the postcard listed a location -- LOVE that postcard btw). I have encountered Raye’s mustard before but not this flavor and I love sweet mustards so I’m excited to try it out!

Meanwhile upper right, @shirokou sent me some lovely enamel pins (the blue crab is on my bag for traveling!) along with a beautiful ring -- you can’t see it too clearly there, but it’s made from the handle of a silverware set, and it looks great on my thumb. :D Dearborn also thoroughly enjoyed playing with the bag it came in while I did this photo shoot: 

And some lovely cards (including a BUNCH of holiday cards) from various folks. Top image, clockwise from upper left, some beautiful autumn trees from @alltangledupinblue, a fantastic tableau from Gorey from @yaaurens, sparkly gnomes from @bookfanatic, even sparklier peace and hope (and Hanukkah wishes, thanks!) from Nightshade Zombie, and warm wishes (plus some awesome embroidery patterns) from @traykor. I loved the “have you hugged your cat” sticker too. 

Bottom image, again clockwise from left, some gorgeous images from the Book of Kells from C; I love that my tumblr could be considered a form of comfort fic :) A Bah Humbug from @froofie (hi Biscuit!) and some Hos from Celtprincess13. The Matryoshka eggs are actually a current card (as in, NOT sent in December) from @scifigrl47, and the Grinch who stole Hanukkah candles gave me such a laugh, from Josh and Kris, while in the center is a photo card (hence most of the image being obscured) from the Hutt family.

I often get good wishes and frequently get thanks for the content I provide, which is just lovely to hear because I always wonder if I’m just being boring. :D Thank you for all the good wishes and holiday cheer, however sunny it might be outside now!

Shipping

Friend: so who do you ship?

me: do you want it in alphabetical order, order I discovered them, or highest to lowest ability to emotionally cripple me?

Friend: *visibly uncomfortable*
