    Gosh, I have not received those in YEARS.

    Do you actively look for your gifts in your house that have been hidden or do you want it to be a surprise?

    Size varies every year.  Sometimes it's 20 people and other times theres about 8 of us.  This year, I hope it's tiny, as in me and DH.

    Homemade presents or non homemade?

    We do.  It's fun.  I have one of those cute mini-poinsettas on my desk and I hang up all the Christmas cards my bosses get on the front of my office door.

    Depends on who's making it! One of the best wedding gifts I got was some homemade jewelry, I wear it all the time (like today!)

    Ooohh spice!  And Christmas cookies.

    I have to tell Ben what I want every year, sizes, colors everything.  I've given up ever being surprised.  The only time he pulled it off was with my E-ring and I was even suspicious then.

    We used to, but then it sat there for a year un-used, so we decided to save our money this year.

    Hey I already did the egg nog one!  :)  Personally, I think rum ruins egg nog.  I put ice cream in mine and blend it in the blender--try it, you'll be hooked!

    Snow man.  I always get my bosses something plus all the the staff.  We are all really close up here.

    I love plain old sugar cookies.  With egg nog. 

    I can't think of another question.

    I bought some delicious rum that on Kauai. The sugar cane is grown there and all the distilling is done there, it is so good I want to put it in everything. I already made mulled cider with rum and I really want to make some homemade eggnog with it.

    I have a question:

    Classic Christmas movie: White Christmas or Miracle on 34th Street?
  • edited December 2011
    I was going to do presents this year for work but they are all making my naughty list so I may save myself the trouble.

    As a kid, was your stocking filled with sweet items (candy, chocolate, cookies) or healthy items (oranges, apples, etc.) or gifts or something else?

    I only remember maybe 1 Christmas with stockings growing up, if that and I couldn't tell you what we had.  With our nephew, they try to do oranges and fruit since that is what they had growing up but one year they did candy because it's easier to take a kid through the candy aisle than it is the fruit aisle??? Yeah, uh huh.  Anyways.  It led to one hyper kid who made his dad mad.
