1 bottle (750 mL) - NV Quinta Nova Cla Port
Tasting Notes:
"With
a strong red color and dark orange hints, this wine presents an intense
and mature red fruit aroma, with vanilla and balsamic notes. It shows
some volume in mouth, smoothness
and good fresh flavors, specially from the red and black jammy fruits.
The finish is long and very elegant."
1 bottle - B. Nektar Episode 13 - B. Nektar Strikes Back mead
From the label:
"A long time ago, in a basement not far from Detroit...
It
is a dark time for the rebel army. The evil empire has tightened its
grip and has silenced the rebels' voice. In an effort to strengthen
their cause, the rebels sent out
thousands of bottles across the galaxy. But the Imperial troops are hot
on their trail. The revolution begins today. Help us B. Nektar
fans...you're our only hope.
May the Pours B. With You."
From Team Shiny:
1 game - Scruble Cube
From a review on Forbes:
"Scruble
Cube combines two classic toys, Hasbro’s Scrabble and Mattel’s Rubik’s
Cube. It’s a 3D word puzzle that’s fun for solo play and a good portable
family game. The maker
boasts you can twist the cube into 7,401 septillion configurations,
though I’d get bored after the first septillion."

1 game - Boggle – Game Folio Edition
From an Amazon Review:
This version is Awesome and nicely improved over the original version.
NEW DOME AND GRID: The dome and grid are made of a new material that makes it QUIETER when you shake the letter dice. No more waking everyone up late at night!
BUILT-IN TIMER: It comes with an electronic timer (batteries are included) that beeps softly and changes color from green to amber, then to red when times almost up. This eliminates the need to bob up your head every 10 seconds to see if the sand timer ran out. Great!
PLAYING MATERIALS: Four pads and pencils are included, plus the instructions obviously.
COMES IN A FOLIO: Stores everything easily. The folio has pockets for the pads and pencils (extra space for more). You can carry it around comfortably and is great if you have to travel or wait for a long time in one place.
This version is so nice it should be called Boggle Deluxe Ed

1 - Handmade Bespoke Reclaimed Artisanal Wood 6 pack Carrier with attached antique retro metal bottle opener
Bob of Team Shiny makes these awesome 6 pack carriers himself. I exaggerated the description above, but it's actually really amazing. You've probably seen some mass-produced pine versions (or the occasional fairly sturdy one) in your local boozery. This is the real deal. Bob takes a lot of pride in tweaking his design, and makes sure to use only great wood and excellent materials. If you want to tote 6 bottles after the apocalypse, this is for you.
A Metric Dirt-Tonne of Tupperware
I hope that Kendra can send me a list of the myriad Tupperware pieces she donated, but if not, please know that it's stuff that retails for more that $ 50.00. Excellent stuff. Check out her wares here:
1 bottle (750 ml) of Stirrings Ginger Liqueur
from Proof 66:
"Very
nice liqueur on it's own or in a mixed drink. Straight up it's quite
sweet and "smells like Christmas." In a side by side comparison with
better known and more expensive
Ginger liqueurs Stirrings held its own quite well."

Max Payne 3 (Xbox 360)
For
Max Payne, the tragedies that took his loved ones years ago are wounds
that refuse to heal. No longer a cop, close to washed up and addicted to
pain killers, Max takes
a job in Sao Paulo, Brazil, protecting the family of wealthy real
estate mogul Rodrigo Branco, in an effort to finally escape his troubled
past. But as events spiral out of his control, Max Payne finds himself
alone on the streets of an unfamiliar city, desperately
searching for the truth and fighting for a way out. Featuring cutting
edge shooting mechanics for precision gunplay, advanced new Bullet Time
and Shootdodge effects, full integration of Natural Motion's Euphoria
Character Behavior system for lifelike movement
and a dark and twisted story, Max Payne 3 is a seamless, highly
detailed, cinematic experience from Rockstar Games. In addition to an
expansive single-player campaign, Max Payne 3 will also be the first
entry in the series to introduce a thorough and engrossing
multiplayer experience. Max Payne 3 multiplayer brings the same
cinematic feel, fluid gunplay and sense of movement of the single-player
game into the realm of online multiplayer. Using the fiction and
signature gameplay elements of the Max Payne universe,
Max Payne 3 features a wide range of new and traditional multiplayer
modes that play on the themes of paranoia, betrayal and heroism, all
delivered with the same epic visual style of the single player game.
