Sort of a "Reverse Christmas List"...
To daughter, I gave a great deal of Harry Potter paraphernalia. She's got my total approval to immerse herself into the Rowling Books because she's reading voraciously. Also a pair of Scooby Doo "big fuzzy slippers."My husband loves the sun and has several depictions of it. He's got suns to hang on the wall and at least 2 tattoos of the sun (I have the moon). I gave him a beautiful Lazart sun - dye cast metal with a shiny enamel finish. Also, he wanted the newest CD from a band called Puddle of Mud, which I got him from Amazon.
For my brother, mom and friends, I generally do home-made food-based gifts. They love them and never seem to tire of them. I did something I call "Christmas Jam" this year which is a mixture of Cranberries, Raspberries, Orange and Pear flavored with star anise. They also received truffles.
Every year I try a new "mason jar" gift seen in Martha Stewart Living Magazine. This year, it was a small sewing kit with a puffed out pin cushion on top...everyone got one of those.
