Poll: Best and worst gifts
Best: Wusthof Classic 9" Santuko knife and an immersion blender from my parents, keyboard for Rock Band from BF
Worst: My sister is going through this weird extreme couponing phase, so I got some cocoa butter and emory boards (among other things) from her that were just kind of weird
Re: Poll: Best and worst gifts
Best: A Mumford and Sons CD I've been wanting
Worst: A Sock Monkey wine bottle cozy *note - this cozy came sans wine, very disappointing indeed*
Best: Jo Malone perfume, BBW lotion set and $25 B&N gift card
Worst: None, all I got was the above and it's all I wanted so I'm very happy
Best: ornaments my daughter made
Worst: underwear (Mom loves to keep up this tradition for our stocking)
Best: A new set of knives in a block, a Ninja blender
Worst: My aunt got me this perfume that I don't care for at all.
Which purse? I just started noticing these and love them!
Best: Flat screen tv for my room from my parents
Worst: sweater shaver from my grandma for shaving off the pills of fabric that get on your sweaters.
Mr. K and I took a trip instead of giving gifts and even though the weather didn't pan out for us for camping/canoeing,our impromptu trip to NOLA was amazing.
My Mom got me some much needed running socks!!!
Those were the only two things I got for Christmas and they were more than I could have ever wanted.
They see us rollin'...they be hatin'.
best: kindle fire from bf
worst: probably just funniest, one of my "squad kids" got me an in case of emergency mini vibrator lol
Best: Diamond right hand ring from Z and a flat screen tv from my mom for my house.
Worse, a hat that is totally not my style.
I got a sweet gift that turned funny. My 10 yr old sister saw this personalization stand at the mall and begged my mom to get each of us an ornament for couples with our names, bf's name and the yr. So my sister got a Megan and Edward, Brittany and Tim and I got Heather and Z. Each of ours were different. Megan got reindeer , Brittany Penguins and I got snowman/woman. The funny part was that each our names were under the man and the bf's name under the woman. Z asked if she was trying to imply that the woman wears the pants in the relationship lol.
Seriously. My sister is so weird...
I got the Sock Monkey wine bottle cozy as well - except I wanted it, it was on my Pinterest
It was a stocking stuffer anyway...
Best? $50 cold hard cash from my Nana
Worst? My aunt misinterpreting "I need pots and pans since STBXH wants those in the divorce" and buying me glass bakeware. PS I get the bakeware in the divorce (they were a gift to me) and she's one you can't return her gifts.
Best: a trip to NOLA next September w/ BF - though that wasn't a surprise, it was something we discussed. Best gift that was a surprise was half a case of wine and some really cool gold hoop earrings from my aunt.
Worst: fingerless gloves - not one pair, but two! One from BF's mom that were hand-knitted (not by BF's mom), bulky, too tight in the arm and too loose in the hand. The other pair from my mom that are just too tight overall and have fake fur around the wrist. No thank you to both.
Best: Kindle touch from BF or a fossil watch I've wanted for a long time, also from BF
Worst: A dvd all about Jesus and the formation of earth. Totally not my thing.
Seeing as though I only got 3 gifts this is going to be easy
Favorite - My clothes steamer
Worst - Scarf
