Mr. Pecker,
Thank you very much for your generous gifts. While your riddles were clearly sub-par, I believe that these physical puzzles will require a great deal of my constructive time. Do you know them to be worthwhile from personal experience?
I believe that, in the spirit of this time of year combined with the continuation of our association, it would be appropriate for me to provide us both with a meal in the near future. The last time we spoke, you provided it, and so it is only fair that I take my turn. Please inform me of your preferences for the type of meal and date so that I may accommodate them.
