So, as I returned from my short trip to the family's place for the holidays, after a long drive, I arrived home to an empty doorstep...still no Secret Santa! Resigning my self to another day wondering what magnificent items would await me once the gift arrived, I sauntered inside. Hours later, long since the sun had set, the door bell rings. Not wanting more disappointment, I let my roommate answer the door for me. He returns from around the corner with a large package. Could it be?! NO, don't get your hopes up! Wait...it is?! YES!
The box looked a little worse for wear, but I was just glad I was going to get to open something finally! (I am a very impatient person, haha.) Opening the box, I found a nicely packed and beautifully wrapped present. What could be inside?
First was a mysteriously stamped box, inside of which was proof that I shall now serve as hand of the king! What an honor. Along with this was an awesome medieval/viking drinking tankard. Wow! These are both so cool, blown away this year.
After some expert level sleuthing on my part, I'm confident in thanking @
joshvanrad
for these lovely gifts this year. After inspecting these, I have to ask, did you make them yourself? Fantastic craftsmanship on both. Either way they're still awesome, was just curious. Also, do you happen to know if the tankard is drink-safe? I'm always super paranoid about these kind of things haha. If not, I have the perfect place on my shelf for it, but if it happens to be, I'd love to have many drinks from it in your honor.
Thanks again Josh, and of course to Michael, who without we wouldn't have all this fun each year. Merry Christmas everybody, and Happy New Year!
