From my Parents:
Some kitchen items I've wanted (these great plastic measuring cups, a silicone brush, and a melon baller)
An umbrella (sorely needed--my old one is on it's last legs!)
A Chococat contact lens case
A Chococat digital camera case
A Chococat computer case (so I was a little Chococat obsessed this year...I think the Hello Kitty thread put me on it )
A beautiful silver bracelet
A CD that I wanted
and the best present of all...a trip to a dayspa with my Mom next month complete with spa bath, an herbal wrap and a massage. Much needed!

From the Best Friend:
An amazing sterling silver necklace with a Starfish on it and a frame with a saying from the 'Starfish' story if you've ever heard it

From Aunt/Uncle: $200 Cash

From another Aunt/Uncle: The best presnt of 2008...an iPhone!!!

I actually have a few more presents coming from some friends (who are notoriously bad present senders...I send them theirs with time to spare every year; you'd think they'd learn!)

My parents got us:
- A slow cooker
- A cookbook with slow cooker recipes (interesting stuff in there)
- "The Indian Grocery Store Demystified" book (has a lot of info on different Indian spices, veggies, etc.)
- A tie for DH
- Subscription to Cook's Illustrated magazine (Mom has been giving me gift subscriptions for years)

My in-laws got us two bottles of wine (not very good wine, at that).

I was naughty this year...

My husband gave me a $50 REI card... I never go there. So I will be willing to trade if anyone can tell me where that website is?

My dad somehow gets the stuff the falls off the boat and sent me a liquid hand soap dispenser...

My mom gave me the best gift which was cash.

My brother and his 2 women and their babies gave me pictures of the babies. Cute, but you all know how kids change.

Guess I have to be better for next year...

So, I'm a little late to this party because I just got home:

Money
Emeril cookware
Trader Joes Gift Card
Gift Card to Cooking School Gift Shop where I volunteer (buying my Wusthof Santoku Knife)
Missing Pieces to my Antique Cigar Humidor and pipe stand (long story, but I don't smoke)
A Job Offer

The only item I may "return" is the job offer. It needs some negotiating.

I don't know if you tailgate or go to other outside parties, but I'm fairly certain that the chair I got came from REI. One of the people with whom I tend to go to outdoor events had one at the last bash, and I've been lusting after it ever since!
