for work, we had a yankee swap and i was stuck with a santa figure that pooped out candy when you pressed his head.When my husband and I married, we lived in the country and he really wanted to try his hand at pig farming. My cousin, who bred and raised hogs, gave us a boar (That's a male hog for breeding purposes!) for our wedding gift. How romantic!12.01.2009 ReportFor me it had to be a birthday gift from a old friend. I got hurt at work and he got me a statue of a guy all wrapped up in bandages that had a logo on the bottom that said sue the bastards. I probably still have it some where in the attic.12.01.2009 ReportMy husband and I married in college. The first year of our marriage, I stayed up late at night to study, plus I had a part-time job three nights a week. This left little time for romance. On our first Christmas together, my husband gave me a pair of jumper-cables as a joke.12.01.2009 ReportMy grandparents sent me a Christmas gift when I was thirteen years old. It came in an attractive white square box. Inside I found the box full of bright blue translucent chrystal rocks. I did not know what it was for. First I thought it might be rock candy, but sucking on one of the rocks proved it was not rock candy. Then I thought that they had remembered that I loved gardening and that these were decorative rocks in which to force bulbs. But they were so sharp that I ruled that out Something for potpourri? They had no scent to them. I do not remember how I wrote my thank-you note. I still do not know what they were for, fifty-five years later, and it's too late to ask them.12.01.2009 ReportOh man, some of these posts are hilarious! I was involved in a white elephant gift exchange at work and I received a staue of a faceless monk holding a video camera. Needless to say noone tried to take my gift...12.01.2009 ReportMy boyfriend made me this shell person. It was a shell with big eyes, another shell for the nose, and it sat on a block of wood. I guess its the thought that counts.12.01.2009 ReportI was 22, living in New Orleans at the time with my boyfriend, and it was our first Christmas together away from New York. It was Christmas Eve, and I came in from work, and there hanging in the Living room was foot tall white and yellow Cockatiel stuffed toy with a bow, sitting on a perch, hanging from the ceiling. It was such a delight to see it there, and when I got closer I realized he had something dangling from his claw, a beautiful diamond and pearl ring! It was a very special gift and made being homesick that year, a little less so.12.01.2009 ReportI received a set of dishes when I was 13.12.01.2009 ReportA used silver coffee pot. It was definitely not new and some relatives sent it from Italy. Did it belong to a great grandmother or something? I never did find out why they gave me a used coffee pot!
Okay, peeps, here's your chance! : )
My most unusual gift was a hamster from my first 'real' boyfriend in high school (we started later back then...). Then we broke up and I kept my hammie. : )
