At first glance, it may look like a box of cigars...
Post holiday greetings, dear readers, on this Boxing Day 2019. Although I did not rake in a load of gaming booty among the presents this year (which were, nonetheless, splendid), I did happen to receive the above. Cigar-box like it may seem (in handsome wood, no less)...
...but closer inspection reveals that it contains a different sort of treat: booze and chocolates! (A holiday favorite of mine). My wonderful wife normally gets me a small package or two of these treats to have around the house among the holiday confections; this year she came up spades with this!
In addition to looking forward to savoring the tidbits over the next few weeks, I am also anticipating how I might us this handsome (and handy) box for hobby purposes (Chocolate Box Wars, indeed!).
Next post will most likely be the obligatory end-of--year summary.
Until then...
Excelsior!
Is this a First Aid kit with Medicinal Chocolates and Healing Tonics?
ReplyDeleteYour wife is looking after your well-being!
Logistically more practical than a St Bernard with a cask on it’s collar, but as effective! 😀
DeleteJohn Patrinquin at Wargames Hermit blog had a similar box for small scale Wargames worth taking a look at - first of two posts here: https://wargamehermit.blogspot.com/2019/03/cigar-box-wargame.html
