huge crockpot
huge food processor
two nice shirts
some tailored jeans
a mobile phone charger

A whole bunch of books (including three on the Supreme Court), some money, and some new shirts, with the big present being a nice new watch from my in-laws.

Also, used some of the Christmas money to buy a new suit yesterday, as I needed one.

Mine is Metallic Crome. I wanted one in copper, but it would have been about $300 more.

We just got back from our honeymoon, so Christmas was kinda lean this year compared to past.

-The Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook (which I needed so that I don't have to ring my mom every day when I'm trying to make something from my childhood. It's got great "everyday" recipes and advice on how to shop/buy...a staple for every kitchen!)
-How to Eat Supper by Lynne Rosetto Kasper from NPR's the Splendid Table (another book on how to cook damn near everything. I love this radio show and my husband and I listen to it every week and say "man I want to eat that!". So we got the book to help us cook it)
-Museum of the Missing (a book on art theft that I saw in Spain and wanted)
-The Decorated Tile by J&B Austwick (a book on British Victorian tiles that I need for my research that's out of print and kinda hard to get in the US)
- The Americans by Robert Frank with intro from Jack Kerouac (a beautiful photography book for my library).

and he/we got Rock Band 2 for the Wii. I saved for months to get this for him and he was so surprised when he got it because I kept it at my parents' house, and we had already opened "all" of our presents at home. Muwahaha.

From DH:
- iPod Touch
- Chronicles of Narnia series
- Coldplay CD
- auxiliary cable to play the iPod in the Outlook

From my family (we draw names so we only have one person; my BIL had me):
- Mary Poppins DVD
- Beedle the Bard book

From my ILs:
- GC to local department store
- chintzy holiday plate

Pretty low-key for us. I LOVE my new iPod. My birthday is also 10 days after Christmas, so I know I'll get a few more things then.
