Re: What was the one gift you did not like this year and the best one you received?

I'll say my two favorite gifts, instead of listing any I didn't like (safety girls - LOTS of people know I post here).

DH got me Dance Dance Revolution for the PS2 with a game pad for it (awesome cardio workout - you have NO idea).

Mom and Dad got me Marisol, the limited edition American Girl doll of 2005. I collect those dolls somewhat compulsively.

American Girl dolls! yay!

I collected those into about the time when I was in high school... I have all of them up to Josephina, that's when I stopped collecting. And I have boxes and boxes of clothing and furniture and accessories.

I still have them all... these days I'm sticking with porcelain dolls - I get maybe one a year, for my birthday.

Re: What was the one gift you did not like this year and the best one you received?

ok, apparently I can't pick just one for either category.

best gifts: a beautiful necklace my mom gave me, a vermont teddy bear from FH. oh, and the calendar I asked for.

worst gifts: hard to say... I got quite a few things this year that were very well meaning but were SO not my style at all... a lot of jewelry that I will probably never wear. Also, I happen to love my pet rabbits and have become known as 'the bunny lady' in my family, so people keep giving me rabbit related things... and I really like some rabbit stuff, but people seem to forget that just because it has a rabbit on it doesn't mean I'd want it!

but I still have 6 nights of Chanukah left, so you never know what will pop up!

Re: What was the one gift you did not like this year and the best one you received?

Both from my FI...

best- ipod nano

worst- nike sneakers that look like alien shoes, so not my style! But he tried and I'm still very happy that he thought about it cause I really do need new sneaks, just not these!

Best...a new bed from FH, a GC from Express from my oldest bro

Worst - Funky striped PJ's from the Gap from my other bro (I only got 4 gifts this year, so hard to really say that was the worst!)

Re: What was the one gift you did not like this year and the best one you received?

Best gifts-a Coach bag from my FIL's and pots from my parents (we're moving in together next month and need pots).

Worst gift-a basket of English Muffins from my aunt. The people in my office seemed to like my gift though.

Re: What was the one gift you did not like this year and the best one you received?

I really liked all my gifts this year, but my favorites were: coach bag from FH, Brittany Spears Fantasy perfume from FBIL, and a faux fur poncho from FH's cousin.

Although I haven't seen it yet, I also suspect another favorite will be the cockoo clock my dad just brought back from Germany for me.

Favorite: no doubt about it - my engagement ring!!!

Re: What was the one gift you did not like this year and the best one you received?

Best: from FH, a Citizen watch...although I chose it...so I won't give him full credit.

Worst: there wasn't really a worst gift - I pretty much got things I like.

I liked what little I received this year.
