Hmmmm.....you just gave away a big clue.....you are buying for a female! That means you are not buying for any of the fellas. That narrows it down a whole lot! I am a female.....are you by chance, ....buying for ME?!?!?! HMMMMmmmm?!?! Whatcha get me?!? ::picking up package and shaking it:: I don't hear much rattling....

Nice list Len. Thanks for taking the time to do a detailed post.

I just "discovered" a new old movie. They've been playing it on a local station this month. It's called "It Happened On Fifth Avenue". It was nominated for an Oscar but it lost to Miracle On 34th Street that year. It takes place during the holiday season but reflects the issues of the day, with GI's returning home and affordable housing shortages. (Like we don't know anything about that today. ) I recommend it if you like older holiday movies.

OH NO! No Tidycat on sale in this years PetSmart ad. Anyone have any experience with Arm & Hammer or that great choice stuff that is in the tub? Are they about the same? Or is one better than the other??

Amazon is delivering fast, even though they gave me a 3 week before it ship warning. I got my stuff in 4 days. Hopefully you items will come quick Bopeep.

I always make my cookies from scratch. Mom and her sisters like the basics: oatmeal raisin, chocolate chip, chocolate crinkle etc. The only cookie I cheat on is I get Gordon Food Service's holiday sugar cookie box. Bake them. I then decorate them with homemade butter cream frosting. Nuke them in the microwave (yes, frosting and all) maybe 15 - 20 seconds before eating them for that straight from the oven goodness. Yummy goodness!

OMG! I have made those peanut butter cookies for years now. Hands down the best peanut butter cookie.

Well, being clergy, I like traditional hymns. I especially like the Christmas hymns that don't get sung very often: The Huron Carol (especially in the Huron language), Of the Father's Love Begotten, Lulee Lulay, Hallelujah Chorus etc. But I admit, I get very excited and turn the radio up every time I hear I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas or Dominic The Donkey.

Coal. Definitely Coal. I can think of a few people that need to find coal in their stocking this year.

God love you HanShotFirst! Please take care! God bless your healing ministry to your patients!

Bopeep did you get your own name in???? You are joining us this year aren't you??

LOL Better late then never!

Hey Bopeep! I'm already buying stuff. Good sales you know. I need a name that will match what I bought. Hurry up and give it to me!

Tidy Cat cat litter! At PetSmart. I posted before I saw your response Wittenlover. GMTA! I should have just sent you a tub of cat litter last year for secret Santa! LOL!

You know, I just noticed something.....ever notice how BoPeep is always FIRST on the secret santa list?!?! Could she be kissing up to Santa?!?..... hmmmmmmm. :: ducking quickly while laughing maniacally. :: hee hee heee

Well, as long as you are happy....... :: now you've got me wondering about all those little kosher bees you need to make all the honey....::

LOL Santa better be wearing a mask! He's in a high risk group, he's a senior and he is over weight, and he is male. I don't want to see Santa in my ER .... unless of course he is there just to drop off PPE or toilet paper!

::watching as the sun sets here:: good shabbos! Kosher keto...:: shaking head:: it takes all the fun out of the holidays...all that good food....such a shame.

All gone

Oh boy! Oh boy! Oh boy! The lists are already growing! ::doing happy dance ::

Gator, I am so sorry. It has been a rough year for many of us! I haven't been able to work either. Hang in there. We will get through this! I am glad you are still hanging out with us.

Count me and mom in for Secret Santa and mom in for the card exchange. She *LOVES* those cards from the different states.

YAY!

Shana tovah Gater! Those look yummy! Hope you are enjoying the holidays!

I say we pick secret Santa names now with a shipping deadline of Oct. 17th.
