(the SOUP bowl is one i already bought)
it came with chopsticks and a soup spoon

my secret santa revealed...!

squee!
so Katie was my secret santa this whole time!
this is embarrassing... because for days i've been going to Katie asking
about who my secret santa might be!
"i wonder who got me~!" "i hope i don't just get a gift card~!" "who do you have, Katie?"
oy... i'm so silly.. i don't know why i assumed she didn't pick my name...
anyhow, i love what she got me!
on my wishlist i noted "fuego" as my favorite store and she got me the cutest shirt♥

complete with candies!! and a cupcake lip balm♥
♥LOVE LOVE♥
