When it comes to Christmas, I'm not exactly ba-humbug, but I'm not trailing tinsel either. I have a confession to make. I'm in it for the gifts. I am, in fact, a present whore. It's not like I'm proud or anything, but it is the truth. So I have to buy a few to get a few, that’s okay. For that sweet, sweet feeling of tearing through paper and ribbon to get to the treasure waiting within I'd do *almost* anything. (And between you and me, people that stop to read the card? They're doing it wrong.)
There’s nothing like getting gifts. Except for cake maybe...cake is pretty good. Coconut is my favourite. In Australia Christmas is smack bam in the middle of Summer so steamed puddings aren't such a good idea. But a lovely lush coconut cake is spot on. We're more likely to have cold chicken, seafood and salads with lashings of icy drinks on the go than a big hot roast dinner. My favourite icy drink is half a tub of strawberry sorbet blended with a sweet champagne. Just the thing to beat the heat and it also aids in dealing with the extended family. Spending the day in the pool is also a good idea. I like to have Die Hard blaring in the background if possible. Best Christmas movie ever. Bruce Willis battling it out against those crazy European bad guys. Awesome. So that's my version of Christmas Down Under.
But back to my capitalistic tendencies. Presents. I want them. Here's my wish list so far...
Crystal Head Vodka. Seriously. How cool is this? |
Zombie Magnetic Poetry Kit from ThinkGeek. The kids will love it. |
What's on your Christmas Wish List? Let me know in the

Good luck!
When the plague hit, her neighbours
turned into mindless, hungry, homicidal maniacs.
Daniel has been a loner his entire life. Then
the world empties and he realises that being alone isn’t all it’s cracked up to
be.
Finn is a former cop who is desperate for
companionship, and willing to do anything it takes to protect the survivors
around him.
When the three cross paths they band
together; sparks fly, romance blooms in the wasteland and Ali, Daniel and Finn
bend to their very human needs in the ruins of civilisation.

I'm older so I have most everything I need so when someone ask me what should they buy me, I say Amazon cards because I buy books through out the year so gift cards are always on my wish list regardless if it is the holidays or my birthday.
ReplyDeleteOn my dream list, I would love to win the lottery so I could buy or build me a new house and be debt free. yeah, I'm dreaming big - LOL
Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays! Gift cards to my favorite stores are at the top of my wish list, including Amazon. If you like menage books, I recommend reading Blackmailed by Annemarie McKenna and the Leashed series by Jet Mykles. (They are two of my favorites.) The leashed series has 4 books so far with more to come. All of them are great stories. Thanks for being part of the hop and for the chance to win. <^_^>
ReplyDeleteThe major item on my list is ebooks or giftcards--my kindle needs restocking! A new cover for it would be nice as well.
