    I'm going to mail out Rev. Lowery-themed holiday cards. We ask you to give us gifts that are not breast lifts, that Santa can bring back Fanta, that on this Hanukkah I won't get lockjaw, that the candy will be dandy; and that the reindeer games will not be lame[s].

    @andBegorrah: I am not sure if I'm supposed to start pronouncing Hanukkah as "Hanu-kaw" or lockjaw as "lock-jah". I kind of like them both.

    Ugh, as a Michigander born and raised, Bronner's gives me god-awful flashbacks...sitting in that store for an entire day while my mother browsed through room after room of ornaments...I can almost smell the horrible artificial-pine-and-cinnamon potpurri now. Shudder.

    I have told my family members I want one present this year: a 32-inch flat screen. (They apparently don't come much smaller, and I have no space for a bigger one.) I already found it at Target, so I am happy to receive Target gift cards, or cash, which I will accumulate and put towards it.


    They probably won't listen, but I have stated my goal.

    I wish my family wouldn't go all out for Christmas. It's like, ornaments everywhere, lights everywhere, every square inch of our front yard is covered in lights, you name it.


    We spend several hundreds of dollars each year just for lights alone.


    Ugh.

    Also, I have to admit that even though I end up doing less and less of it every year, I really love the idea of Christmas decorating. Every year I think about getting a fake tree in the after Christmas sales, and every year I don't do it because I don't have the storage space. But around this time I start having thoughts of glass balls and lights and popcorn strings again, even though I go to Illinois for Christmas and the cat would knock the tree down while I was gone.


    I do bake something every year though. I can't do Christmas without it. We really need a Christmas baking thread, in which we rhapsodize over fudge and peanut brittle and gingerbread and my Mom's awesome ambrosia balls.

    I just bought a house last month, and I told mom straight up that Santa was gonna be skinny this year, because I can barely afford to feed myself.


    That being said, only a handful of people are getting gifts from me (Last year I handed out gifts to my aunts, uncles, cousins, their kids, etc) and all presents are coming from Ross.
