...thing you received for Christmas?
Treadmill! No this wasn't DH idea. I would kill him if it was. I asked for it. I love it. It has Ifit on it which is Jullian Michaels program and she yells at you the whole time.

...thing that you gave someone else for Christmas?
Bought DH a new camera. Some crazy camera with all this stuff on it. To complicated for me to have any patience with. Anyways he has been enjoying it, but if he takes one more picture of me on the treadmill he isn't gonna like what happens.

...thing you ate during the Holidays?
Everything with Sugar! Yum. I am done now though...binge is over! I swear!

We gave my 14 year old nephew the iTouch. He has it with him at all times and LOVES it! So happy to see him get something cool.

...thing you ate during the Holidays?
I love my mom's macaroons; I make my Gram's poppyseed bread, which is so yummy. I ate my way thru the holidays...now I'm back to salads and detoxing from sugar! ;-)

...thing you received for Christmas? A new cookbook...gorgeous, with beautiful pictures and recipes that make my mouth water. I have a grocery list ready for Whole Foods, and then I'm going to try some of these delicious recipes.

...thing that you gave someone else for Christmas? We had a coffee mug made for DH's Grandpa that has pictures of Claire all over it. He made a nurse walk with him all over his nursing home so he could show everyone

...thing you ate during the Holidays? DH and I made a ham on Christmas Eve, and it was delicious.

I made a family cookbook and got recipes from all of mine and DH's family as well as lots of family photos on each page. It was a balancing act because I wanted to put as many recipes and photos in as possible. It was a big hit to everyone I gave it to. Funny thing is I gave them all away and didn't keep one for myself. Will need to have a 2nd printing done.

DH got me the "flip pal" which is a hand held flatbed scanner - uses batteries - TOTALLY awesome as I"m into my genealogy and can't wait to take it with me to do more research!

The best thing was probably what I gave my dad - one of the HARDEST men to buy for he "wants" nor "needs" anything...he's a Green Bay Packers fan - so my husband, my mother and I got him "stock" in the Packers!!
