Because, like one potato chip company's old slogan, you can't choose just one...

 

From parents: Russian Mints from Morden's of Winnipeg.  Mmmm, those are soooo good.  Like, a cousin refused to let dad (and his jokes) come to his wedding if he didn't bring a box of them good.

From hubby: Nintendo Switch.

Bravely done, Corsair.

 

My best gift was a (slightly ramshackle) shed that I can turn into a proper big airbrushing studio. Which is a skill I've been longing to improve.

@Corsair, congratulations on becoming a Quisitor. You poor bugger.

 

As for my Christmas gift, I haven't received it. My friend ordered me the Dragon & Stocking, Christmas Mockingbeast, and Fairy Garland, and I'll have them as soon as Canada Post comes back from their holidays.

I have not received anything yet. Not really. My boss walked around passing out $10 gift cards to the donut shop but that's kind of it.

 

Supposedly things are in the mail. 50/50 I'll even get the box my mother sent, she sent it UPS signature required.

Little things, fabric and craft stuff from DH and friends. Stuff I will actually use and not have sitting around gathering dust.

Hard to choose...I got several great gifts from my girl, vixens and youngest vixen's boyfriend.

If I have to choose I think it will be a shirt my girl got me.

It fits perfectly.

Two for me both from SIL and family:

Well I didn't get many but I guess the stuffed squirrel doorstop. It's  grey with various patterns for the materials used. I'll try & post a pic later.

I got a LOT of miniatures which is obviously awesome- though the shelf of shame is starting to bow under the weight of what's there already! I also can tell I'm starting to get old because some of my other favourite gifts include a very soft dressing gown and a pair of skechers (once a waitress, always a fan!)

A simple answer as I only received the one thing :)

Oldest spawn and his gf gave the wife and I movie and dinner gift cards with a cute pair of T-Rex salt and pepper shakers on the side.

[NecroMancer 6429]

I didnt get much but my favorite was a case of Melinda's XXXXtra Hot Pepper Sauce.  

 

Yes, I said a case.  I eat a LOT of hot sauce and in my opinion it is by far the best hot sauce.  Not just heat but tons of flavor.

Unfortunately, my wife and I had to remove a pair of pine trees from our front yard two weeks before Christmas due to a fungal infection. So that was our gift to ourselves. Shame too, I loved those trees. But my folks got us a nice Le Cruset Dutch oven. We've each cooked a meal in it and man that bad boy is nice.

Band of Brothers DVD. That's a historical series done right and I haven't seen it in years. The only thing annoying me is that there are no english subtitles. If I try to watch it when the kids are screaming I have to crank the volume to hear the talking and then we get realistic levels of artillery noise when the shooting starts.

Flavour is arguably the most important thing about a hot sauce, in my opinion.
