That Twilight Zone DVD sonds mighty cool!

My parents overdid it as usual and got me some books on art history and a quite pricey chronograph. Unfortunately it´s much too chunky for my matchstick wrists, but I have carte blanche to pick another one instead...makes me think pocket watch.

My sister and her kids gave me the usual bottle of toilet water.

And, last but not least, I received a lovely quilted potholder from one of my penpals.

Regards, A.

and whoop-de-do

I got a 2-dinner gift certificate to the local Italian restaurant, bought some vintage sewing patrons with the 2 checks I got, a subscription to Burda sewing magazine from my late dad, a mug, and candy. Since I don't have to do the in-laws agony anymore I get a lot less stuff, but it was all stuff I didn't want anyway. I'll get a lot of vintage clothes from my mom when I visit her in Florida next month.
Wanna know what I gave? A collectible set of dishes, booze, a portrait of me, a poker set, homemade brownies and shortbread, clothes, books, a AAA membership, a crossword puzzle subscription, and lipstick.

I got an awful lot of coffee from Brazil.

That's great because I love it! :coffee: Some paints. A gift card for best Buys. Some vino,.... From my favorite gal, a cool little brass statue of Shiva dancing the Natraj, the 5 cosmic acts of creation. She was going to get me a different one, but I was hoping to get this one instead. Got my wish.
I gave her a new baking stone for making pizzas. Turns out she had just broke the one she had in a terrible cooking accident. I always use The Force when Christmas comes around. lol
