Okay, last present exchange was yesterday. I received, either solely or jointly with Peggy, the following:
A calendar of Art Nouveau/Art Deco food posters
A collectible reproduction of a tin-toy robot
A copy of Evil Genius by Catherine Jinks
A gift card for a local specialty pie bakery, with a pie server
Homemade candies
Homemade soaps and lotions
Various cocoas, teas and other beverage mixes
A couple varieties of Hickory Farms summer sausages
and the biggie...
A Char-Broil gas grill.

booyah! there's nothing like a steak-burner to improve the quality of life.
Now you need an apron that says 'Immanentize the Eschaton of the Cook'

Epic loot drops:
Star Wars: The Old Republic (I got it early because my friends, all of whom hang out here, are awesome jerks made of awesome)
Patlabor 1 and 2 DVDs
A lap blanket for cold nights in front of the monitor
Monsters vs Aliens DVD
A DVD set of The Three Stooges and W.C. Fields
Robotech DVD box set
A Lego set, which I built then and there before opening the rest of the stuff
Homemade root beer kit
I also got a case of frostbite, a blood-sugar rollercoaster which is only just now starting to behave again, a gut-wrenching episode of frantic searching for a missing family pet, some unexpected bills, and a sore spine. None of those are related. It's been an interesting couple of weeks.

Heh, along those lines, Spud, I got a new water heater, a $900 bill on a truck that I don't drive that belongs to a girl I don't want to have sex with, a $100 bill to get a certified copy of my mom's death certificate, and lost five pounds to 'acute gastroinstestinal distress'.
Hey hey christmas, glad to see you gone, can I have some boring now please?

the PS3 is the best blu-ray player and media player I have ever owned. Plays video games, too.
(I Kid - I just got a Logitech G27 wheel and a copy of Need for Speed: The Run, which is sitting next to Gran Turismo 5. Yum)
