My space santa really went to infinity and beyond with these gifts. I noted that my favorite galaxy is Messier 64 (also known as the Black Eye Galaxy). My santa got me my very own M64! It's hand-painted and the quality is incredible. I love it so much because not only is it my favorite galaxy, but because I'm also a painter who loves painting space! I'll be hanging the painting on my wall so I can see it every day.

The next item I received is a book titled "The Chemical Cosmos: A Guided Tour" by Steve Miller. Astronomy and chemistry are two of my favorite classes and this book pretty much puts them both together. I have a few other astronomy related books, but not as in-depth as this one! It arrived in the mail today and I've already started reading it!

The last item I have is just the best. It's an egg mould. AN ASTRONAUT EGG MOULD. I tried it out and it worked! I added a picture of the cooked egg and made it a little space-y with some salt to represent stars. The little dude even as a thumb!

To my space santa, thank you. I wish there was a better way I could express my appreciation!

This was my third exchange to participate in. I'm a little mad I didn't join redditgifts sooner because the whole exchange process is just too fun! I love giving and seeing my giftee's update posts. I love receiving and writing about my appreciation of the gifts. The Secret Santa exchanges have given me something fun and special to look forward to!
