I can't tell you how thrilled I am that it gives me a really good reason to say no football to the boy. ;-)

Oh, mothers in law! Did I mention that I live 1000 feet from mine. Kinda wish I lived in Canada with you.

These weren't uttered during the holidays, but two gems from my now former mother-in-law: 1) Upon dropping by my house unannounced and hearing me apologize for it being messy, she said, "But it doesn't look any different than usual." and 2) Upon pulling on a pair of shorts she'd borrowed from me, she said, "I'll bet you never thought you'd have a mother-in-law who was smaller than you, did you?"

But now only my children have to deal with her when they visit their dad's family. And apparently she hasn't changed!

I fell asleep last night composing a grievance-related blog post in my head. I don't think I could actually post it, but I assure you it was brilliant! ;-)

Thanks! At least I know someone got a little laugh. Went to your blog and enjoyed your writing too! Seems like we have a similar sense of humor! Now, I have to go wrap those extra 50 presents that inevitably show up out of my husband's trunk! Happy Chanukah!

Hope you have a great holiday!

These are great recycling

Alissa-Taylor Gifts — Wed, 17 Dec 2008 09:17:16 -0600

These are great recycling ideas for the holidays (or any day of the year really). My dad and I have been re-using wrapping paper for as long as I can remember. Aside from saving the earth, re-using bags, ribbons, and bows will also save money on buying gift-wrapping materials. My family always uses cloth tablecloth and napkins, and we have been saving out plastic food containers for years to re-use them as leftover containers. Taylor Gifts also has many items to help people recycle, like the 3 Recycle Bags and the Can Crusher

Handmade vs Homemade

Jemima — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 18:44:47 -0600

I started knitting gifts for really close friends and family members, but every year it gets out of hand. Everyone else gets to go eat gingerbread and drink eggnog, and I've given up sleeping and bathing to try to reap maximum gift-making time before Christmas. I think making your gifts is a great idea...as long as you start early enough.

Also, for a number of years, friends have given us jams and pepper jellies and chocolates they've made themselves, which i absolutely love. Some people make scoff at this kind of kitchen gift, but personally i think there's a difference between handmade vs homemade. And that difference is love.

stories are great

Sara Davis — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 07:43:51 -0600

Those stories you are working on can turn out to be classic, heirloom gifts. We did something similar with my Dad many years ago. We produced a small bound volume of Dad's memories of growing up on a farm in the Depression. It is one of my most treasured volumes on my shelf, even though it is paper bound and not professional by any means. Every adult in the family has one.
