What do you want for Christmahanukwanzaakah?

cmc714

Have we done this already? I'm having a hard time thinking of things I want for Christmas. All I've come up with is a new watch and a gym bag. Exciting, huh? Tell me what you want, what you really really want.

10 straight days off work, but I'm already getting that. Here's my current list: new camera, food processor, really nice new pillows and sheets, a new set of good steak knives, a new scale, healthy cookbooks, hand weights, seasons 2 and 3 of HIMYM, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, new David Sedaris book, and I'm sure I could come up with a list of CDs if I tried.

I want the remodeling in my house to be finished.  I want someone to do all my shopping for me.  And I want a nap.

I want a netbook, and immersion blender and a new food processor.

BobLoblaw

New camera lens

Assorted Fiestaware serving pieces

Baking cookbooks

New bedding

wingedbride

A portable hand crank food mill, a massage and a facial.

A massage, a pair of Toms, some sweaters/nice shirts, camel boots (if I can ever find a pair I like), a stand mixer, cookbooks

Ooh, we need a new frying pan, but that's not very exciting. I have wanted a food processor, maybe I'll add that to my list. And for T to finally make me a god damned mantel to hang my stockings with care.

Curtain rods for the living room, this cabinet to hold all of our electronic shiit, a giant leather purse, and most of all, to have my $3 chair repaired and reupholstered.  I'd also love some art.  Edit:  ooh, also Buddha reminded me I asked for another pair of Tom's.

I'm ridiculously excited about Brett's present.  I bought a vintage cabinet and I'm setting up a bar for him.  I even found some of the Don Draper roly poly glasses that he's obsessed with.

Usually I don't get anything for the holidays, but if I did, I would really just want a kitten and world peace.  Oh, and a bloomingdales gift certificate, and a verizon Iphone (which hopefully will come in the new year), and a new computer, and an extra three hours each day (two of which to sleep, one to exercise).  Oh, and I'd really like a housewife.

Thanks so much Santa and Hanukkah Harry!  Amen.

That's awesome! Are you hiding it from him? That's my challenge with T, he wants a tool chest for the garage and that's not exactly something I can hide very well.

I could take a sister wife, but just one that cooks and cleans and doesn't have sex with my husband. Maybe that's called a maid.

I honestly don't know what I want. What camera lens are you asking for Bethie?

BobLoblaw

This one, but I think you already have this, right? I still just have the kit lens.

A frying pan, cake stand, and new apron.  I already know my parents are getting us a web camera and we bought ourselves a Flip. 

SarahBethBR

I brought it in while he was at work and put it in the guest room closet, covered in the pile of blankets that's usually in there.  Carrying it up the stairs alone was a challenge.

I think I'm going to set it all up the last night he works and put one of those bike bags over it.

A tool chest would be hard.  Can you store it at a neighbor's house who'll be home on Christmas?

I would love a day at a spa where I could have a private room and not have to interact with anyone except the people giving me spa treatments.

Bethie, get the 50mm. It's my favorite. But which Nikon do you have? You might need an AF-S (auto focus in the lens): http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-35mm-AF-S-Digital-Cameras/dp/B001S2PPT0/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1291131847&sr=1-2

I want a steam mop (and more importantly, someone to do all the research necessary to pick the right one), for someone else to do the painting that I am too lazy to do myself, a frame that holds 7 4x6 photos, lots of Marshmallow Lovers Swiss Miss hot chocolate, a Hyperbole and a Half shirt, a pair of Chucks, the ice cream maker attachment for my Kitchenaid, David Sedaris audio CDs, a Flip, perfume, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.

Good idea, I didn't think of that. We have a spot in the garage where I might be able to hide it. I would just have to figure out how to get someone to help me get it in there when he's not home.

Yes, this too.  My H thinks we should get the Shark Vac then Steam, but I giggle every time I look at it because the way the "Vac then Steam" is written makes it look like Vag Steam.

Shiiiiit, I totally *do* need that one! THANK YOU! Changing my wishlist NOW.

Dude, I totally quoted the wrong post. Why am I so stupid today?

What are these Tom's you speak of?

noisy_penguin

Bethie - my SIL has the first one, but I completely forgot to play with it while they were visiting. We had the second one, but someone broke it. His initials are L-O-R-N-E.

I don't know why my clicky link won't work.

FYI -- In the research I started to do, it appears the Shark does not get hot enough to disinfect.   I guess their vag just doesn't get hot enough to kill germs.

That's, like, so weird. I just put this on my amazon wishlist today.

Now I need to go click on those lens links...
I have a Canon though.

SarahBethBR

I have the maroon corduroy ones.  They're pretty awesome.  I just want the classic red canvas ones, though.  I think I'll end up wearing them more.

HappyTummy613

I just remembered I want a pair of Tory Burch shoes, but I will probably never get them because I cannot fathom paying two HUNDRED American dollars for a pair of ballet flats.

lmydogally

you want those shoes?  hmmm.

I would love a couple new sweaters, slippers (but not those tom things) a new robe and an IPAD.  I suspect this year, we will be giving eachother the same gifts.

Hezz, this is the one I asked for.

Sweet! Thanks Kristen!
