Send a box of something to someone else! Spending money beyond postage will be discouraged but so will sending completely white elephants.

Send me a message with your address and I will randomize recipients in about two weeks.

I will be in the mix also.

haha and the idiot at the post office put a stick on the packaging that covered the drawing of an elephant too. I figure it was fitting for the Labyrinth.

Got my gift all the way from Alaska!
Here is the package:


Can you guess whats inside?

(Side note: My 3yo daughter had fun popping the huge bubbles in the wrapping.)


hint 1:it is topologically homomorphic to a doughnut



hint 2:It is something i will hold at least four times a day






This is very good coincidence since about two weeks ago I was looking for a coffee mug for work and could not fine one that was interesting enough/meant something. This one is both.
Thanks MatthewV!
btw, is this something you made?

I am getting concerned about my package. I used the post office website and later called to confirm that it left to its destination country on Feb 22nd. She did tell me it can take 30days, VS the 10 days I was originally told, so it should be there any time soon. I hope.
