Dec 2013

sister gets a cardigan, a tshirt and a dr. who mug. i also got socks and a mini tardis for her stocking.

dad gets a shop vac and the world's supply of chocolate. i'm also making him a corned beef, a pastrami, sauerkraut and a loaf of rye bread.

husband gets pajamas, underwear, a bathmat and some ultimate pacman game for the wii. i want to get a few more things for his stocking, though. there's a shop that has all sorts of off the wall stuff. last year i got him a wiener cleaner - round soap with a hole in it. he was not nearly as amused as i was.

mom still lurks on occasion, so not going to talk about what she gets.

i have no idea what husband got his folks this year, i'm just glad i didn't have to try to find something for them.
