I really don't like xmas as I'm a non-believer, but people still get me presents. Best one ever my gf made for me as a gift on our 1-year dating anniversary but I still consider it xmas:
And the rest so far - although I've not made all the family stops yet so there's more to come - from the left:
1. Bag of junk food for work
2. Fila lightweight, longsleeve workout shirt that is supposed to dry quickly. I like these because I sweat pretty bad while working out and don't like wearing sweatbands.
3. Star Wars Trivial Pursuit - I love Star Wars! This is good to bring to restaurants w/ my gf so I have something meaningful to ask her other than "so how was your day" over and over again.
4. Star Wars mugs w/ cocoa - great for my bleeping cold apartment and it's Star Wars!
5. Spiral Slicer - have recently discovered these and I'm really looking forward to making some veggie pasta by replacing the carb-heavy spaghetti with zucchini strings.
6. T-shirt - my gf got me one of these before and they're a great fit. Since our first date I've moved from a 3XLT to an XLT.
7. Snapware pyrex - I've used a lot of plastic click-lock containers to take food to work, but I hate microwaving stuff in plastic. Just never got around to picking up a set of pyrex and this has a small container that will fit in my laptop bag.
8. Magic-bullet - really wanted this to make quick hummus as I don't like getting the food processor out and having to clean it. Also good for making vegan cheese that I also don't want to haul out the blender.
9. IR Thermometer - now when I deep-fry to make falafel, eggplant, or french fries I'll make sure I have exactly the right temperature!
10. Dirt Devil - gf making a little innuendo that I'm a slob
