Omg a giant cup cake pan! Thats the best! Take pics when you make it!

:thumbs: will do!! We're thinking 3 cake mixes might fill this puppy up..

some wise cracker told me to fill it up with jello.. :lol:

holy mother alksdjglsdiguwiet! BEST PRESENT EVER! Where did the person that bought that for you get it?

"...My hair's mostly wind,

My eyes filled with grit

My skin's white then brown

My lips chapped and split

I've lain on the prairie and heard grasses sigh

I've stared at the vast open bowl of the sky

I've seen all the castles and faces in clouds

My home is the prairie and for that I am proud…

If You're not from the Prairie, you can't know my soul

You don't know our blizzards; you've not fought our cold

You can't know my mind, nor ever my heart

Unless deep within you there's somehow a part…

A part of these things that I've said that I know,

The wind, sky and earth, the storms and the snow.

Best say that you have - and then we'll be one,

For we will have shared that same blazing sun." - David Bouchard

I've seen it at Winners here, I think Wilton makes them too, so you could probably find it at Michaels.

It's seriously such an awesome pan!! I am kicking myself for not buying it!!

It's an online store called collections etc

That's funny, I was just thinking I might buy one for myself - but then again there are only two of us here and that's a lot of cake - then again I think I could handle it :lol:

I don't know if all of you use silicon pans, but my Sister bought one and she said it was a disaster, until she realized she need to spray it with vegetable oil first, they never show that in the commercials :hehe:

Buckeyes!!!! :dance:

I squealed so loud when I opened this that hubby thought someone was dying hehe

They were all eaten in about 3.5 seconds :blush:

Thank you so much, Secret Santa xtinab!!!

The Angel Music Snow Globe plays "Joy to the World"; the beautiful note card that accompanied the gifts; and blank note cards for me to use when I'm in the mode to write my baby girl a note.

I agree. The first thing I thought was how thoughtful it was. In that getting to know you christmas style thread, one of the things was Angel or star for tree topper and I put that I had neither and all we had was a santa hat. I thought thats why I was gotten a topper, and then after had found the ribbon and realized it might had been an ornament. Right or not, Im sticking to it being a topper and thats what it was meant to be :D ! LOL

Thanks again to my secret santa, who btw, I still dont know who it is heh

Your SS asked me to let you know that it is indeed a tree topper! She just put a ribbon on the there in case you wanted to hang it up instead :)

Gorgeous ornament you received Maeve :)

Wow! Everyone put so much thought into their gifts. That's so awesome. I love what everyone got! And as soon as I know what I got I'll post the pics. :lol: And, hey! I thought this was supposed to be a secret santa gift? :unsure::lol:

my gift is in the mail!! Even went express, and didn't cost me that much more!! YEAH :dance:

It came on Friday, Michelle!!!!! My parents and my husband wouldn't let me open it, though. They made me put it under the tree. Well, actually, they took it from me and put it under the tree.... I couldn't move with my back so I was victimized!!!!! :crying: I laughed at the box so I took some pics of that. You're a riot! :lol: I will post them as soon as I can.

Close up with the lights on...I think it looks great!

SO relieved to know it got there.. after I realized you had gone to the beach.. i had visions of it outside all alone, and some neighborhood brat coming along and kicking it down the street "just for fun".. then a stray dog grabbing it and running off into the woods with it.. where it might be found years later by some hippy kids out doing bongs in the woods somewhere, and they'd be like "dude... what's this?"...

:lol:

And PS.. it was MEANT to open before Christmas you nut :) rip that thing open!!!
