    mmm purdys chocolate..a great local store chain!   a handheld electronic game..already got one from value village.  

    some little things fun things that reflect me!  but I didn't grow up with stockings (dutch background) and I have to stuff my own stocking... so who knows if I will do one this year, just for the kids maybe.  If our student is here for xmas I will do him one too.

    To live is to die slowly, love fully, breathe deeply, laugh uncontrollably, sing loudly, dance wildly, take no one for granted, smile when you want to cry, raise others up and be raised. Never let what you cant do, stop you from doing what you can.

     Hi All, I agree about the ball and jacks!  And like most of you I would have to do my own stocking, so I started looking for ball and jacks.  I must have looked in the most expensive toy shops all the way to the dollar stores.  I found lots of sets where the jacks were plastic instead of the metal ones like we had as kids.  Found them on the internet in England for $12 per set.......and then low and behold my local Big Lots got them in at $1 and I swear they are just like the ones from England including the tin box........I am ashamed to say that I bought all ten of them.  But I already have plans for 6 of them.  Another thing I really, really want is a gift certificate for a very VERY large box of "honeybell's" from Florida (not ripe until January) my favorite fruit of all time.  And my last thing is a full trockload of small river gravel for the floor of the greenhouse and I get to pick the color............may have to skip the stocking on that one........
