Ok...the wrapping paper is off! What's your favorite gift? No "just being with my family/friends"..."the smiles on my kids faces"...answers. What did YOU get that you love? :D

For me, it was some perfume that I wanted and a nice warm coat for the Chicago winters.

A weekend Aikido seminar in January, with instructors from various styles. What could be better than waking up early and getting thrown around all weekend?

As an amateur chef, I had two favorites: a 6 qt. travel crockpot, and a nice set of Farberware knives. They're not Henckels, but they're pretty sweet.

My stepfather took the 2nd hard drive out of my old, slow desktop computer and installed it in a shell with a USB connection, so I now have a portable hard drive that will work on all my computers, and set up a wireless network between the computers... maybe now I can quit emailing files to myself!

My two son's gifts. One was some Michigan State Pajamas and the other's gift was a folding knife and a multi tool kit that is small enough that I can wear it on my belt without anyone knowing.

My most fav gift was from my honey. He got me a gift certificate to Ski Company for snowboarding gear. Now I just need snow ...... My next fav was a cool Japanese soup set from my best friend (we both love to cook and eat Japanese food). The next one is a chopper (for veggies) from my mom. You put a whole tomato or something in there and it cuts it up in one shot. I love to cook, and she thought that it would cut down on prep time, which it does. Thanks mom ;)

The Nikon Coolpix L6 my inlaws got me, and the DVD my father got me, "Classic French Bread". One of the best instructional videos for the kitchen I've ever seen.

Well, my parents moved recently, and to make up for the smaller space, my Dad gave me a huge chunk of his collection. They weren't an Xmas gift though, it was just the first time I made it over there since they moved in November.

OK this is an easy one. A tool box from my soon to be 9 year old son. It is one he made for a woodworking project in Cub Scouts and has all the quality and fine finish an 8 year old can manage, but it is beautiful to me. Knowing he worked on a project just for me is really, really special.
