My brother is an amazing pianist and this year he played for a salon/spa several times over the coarse of a few months in order to earn $300 worth of spa/salon time for my mom and me. It was so sweet that he devoted his time to play piano so that we could enjoy some relaxation!!! He's the best baby bro in the world anyway tho.. for my college graduation he found an awesome vintage lamp and candle holders for me. So great! :) this was one of my best Christmas’s yet!!!

The best gift I ever got had to be... I love all gifts I get, I can't pick just one! I love pajamas, soaps, sweaters, blankets... cozy things! Except, a couple years ago I got this not gigantic gorgeous mobile that looked like a chandelier of shimmery stars. I put it over my bed, I love it! I like that Caesar salad idea!

It had a little baby seat on the back that I sat my wee little doll in it. Christmas now is less about me, and more about my little girl. I'm excited to see how she reacts this year {she's almost 2}. That is the best gift of all. xx My most memorable, thinking back now, is a little bike that I got when I must have been about five.

I never buy them for myself - why spend $20 when the library is free? - but a book is something I'll keep forever. it's the perfect gift for a cook, gardener, sports fan, photographer, language nerd, anyone! be sure to add a nice inscription in the front cover :) I love getting books.

I usually think about gifts like 3 months before Xmas, then I forget them.. I should've learned and write down my ideas, but no, I always think I'll remember! My favorite gifts would be.. My Pentax. Definitely my Pentax :) Also, an unlimited card to go to the cinema whenever I want. That's paradise :) As always, great post.

My brother received a kitten for christmas from his friend Peggy and he couldn't take it with him back to California so the kitten stayed with me and my parents. He lights up my life everyday that little Sparky! I love my cat and he is probably the best gift me and my parents have gotten.

Years ago when my best friend turned 21 I decided to get her 21 gift cards from different stores. They all had different amounts of money on them. She said for the next year she would pull out a gift card whenever she went into a store and get a surprise when she learned how much money it had. She still talks about it to this day. It was a lot of fun. http://www.mock-off.com Mine is actually not a gift I received, but one a gave. Years ago when my best friend turned 21 I decided to get her 21 gift cards from different stores.
