I can't say thank you enough to all of you. This time of year can be difficult, and you've all made it so much brighter with the thought and care you put into your cards and messages. All the best to you and yours this holiday season and through 2024 <3

u/TyeDyeAmish I hope you and the lovely Penelope can visit WI someday! Thank you so much for the picture of her, it's up on my fridge:) The Driftless Region is absolutely beautiful and perfect for hiking, and the Ice Age Trail is great for dog walking. I hope you enjoy the holiday season!

u/AddisonEllison Thank you so much for the happy mail!! The holidays are the perfect time of year for it. I'm a procrastinator, too, so totally understand and I wish you all the best on meeting your goal:) Take care and have a happy and relaxing holiday season!

u/Hellonicetomeetyouuu This postcard, the stickers, and washi are so adorable and cohesive, thank you so much!! Thank you for telling me about your cats, their names are so regal! I once had a cat named Goose (although it was short for Gustaf). Please tell your kitties I said pspspsps and I hope you enjoy the holidays!

u/RideThatBridge I don't even mind if my Christmas is a little spooky, as long as the Addams are a part of it! Thank you so much for the card and stickers, and shared enjoyment of the OG Addams and Edward Gorey, it made my day:) Bless the long-suffering Lurch for his service as the tree. I hope you and yours have an altogether ooky holiday season!

u/birdiebennett Oh my goodness. This postcard is amazing; it gave me and my roommates a good laugh:) The Stranger by Camus is incredible - thought-provoking and heartbreaking in so many ways. I read it a while ago in my Francophone Literature class for my French degree, and it's on my "read again" list. One that touched me in a similar way as The Stranger is Crying in H-Mart by Michelle Zauner. For Francophone literature, So Long A Letter by Mariama Bâ is a beautiful look at a woman's life within the context of her culture and how she deals with friendship and grief.

u/CSWL This felt like a Mary Poppins envelope-bag! Thank you so much for the lovely bird card, postcards, and stickers! The cheeseboard postcard is the cheat sheet I didn't know I needed; it's going in my fridge. I love a good cheeseboard, but usually only make them during the holidays because I feel like it's too much effort/investment if it's just me. Starting small is a good idea - I already eat sliced apples with gouda so I'm part of the way there? I ended up napping on Thanksgiving as well:) I hope it ended up being an enjoyable day for you!
