Escada’s “Sexy Graffiti” in a handy little bottle (from auntie Ethel, who knows how much I love this sweet scent) // Versace’s “Crystal Noir” (from H, I’ve always had this perfume since I once found a tester in a magazine and fell in love. Lovely surprise!) // “Eesti à la Carte” – a cookbook put together from recipes by the head chefs of various Estonian à la carte restaurants – the perfect gift for a food enthusiast like me, thanks mommy! // Yxes lash serum – I’ve been going on and on about my tiny, pathetic little eyelashes forever. I guess H’s mommy got tired of it and decided to help me out. I’m so happy about this one, it was the biggest surprise! // A Canon 600D – our new family member (me and H wrote to Santa and wished for it) from H’s mother. This doesn’t need a further description – we couldn’t be happier puppies. // The Body Shop’s Rainforest Nutrition hair butter from H. The perfect man can walk into a cosmetics store and walk out with the perfect product for his girlfriend. Amazing surprise he came up with on his very own.
tore, et su suur töö ja vaev ära tasus ja said kingid mis sulle meeldisid sama palju kui sinu tehtud kingid meile 🙂
The perfect man can walk into a cosmetics store and walk out with the perfect product for his girlfriend.
…or in my case: you show the perfect man on the laptop EXACTLY what you want, you write down the product name, colour, the shops where it’s being sold, incl their opening times; you let the perfect man wander off on his own just to discover 2 weeks later after you’ve unwrapped your xmas present that is NOT what you had asked for but something completely different 😀
hahaha 😀 that’s why it’s better not to have any expectations! the surprise can only be pleasant and it’s the only way to avoid all kind of disappointment 😀
well, that is easier to say than do. i guess we all have expectations try as we might not to have them. and it is actually not bad to have hopes and expectations. but i reckon it is important to be flexible if things dont turn out to be exactly as you expected/hoped for. in this case with the xmas present i could not stop laughing 🙂 reality after all is always different from what we dreamed of but mostly it is better because…you know…it is real 🙂
yeah, of course there’s anticipation, but what i meant is exactly what you said: flexibility. 😀 i’m really stoked to find out what you wanted and what you got in stead!
näed see vana pea ei pea enam tõesti midagi meeles, ma tahtsin veel öelda, et kindlasti anna teada, kas see ripsmeseerum töötab ka lubatud kombel (kui viitsid ja aega saad´muidugi). ma olen mõelnud endale soetada, aga hea kui kellelgi eelnev kogemus juba olemas 🙂
annan teada – praegu juba tunduvad tihedamad!
