Virtual Gift Exchange!

Virtual Gift Exchange! So I was thinking about what if we do a virtual gift exchange closer to Christmas? Yes? No? It's just an idea. Tell me what you think about it!

In exchange, I will donate...

Charlotte says that your gift is terrible, Zoot. But I'll take it. I'm donating a nice pair of knee high socks, very colorful.

Ooooooh! We'll take the knee socks! Thanks, EW. Now we'll each have a colorful, warm new bed. And in exchange for the sox, we leave a stack of fresh, delicious mudpies!

Mmm, nothing quite like mudpies! *gobbles pie* Oh, delicious. Hands down the best mudpies I've ever tasted, George and Tail.

Okay, the next person who replies to this gets... a lampshade! These are very stylish when worn like a hat.

*squeals* Ooh! I'll take the magic book and leave.............. What's something that everyone would like? How 'bout a miniture pillow with your initials cross-stitched in it made by me.

Merry Christmas! Happy Hanukah, Kwanza, and every other holiday that is celebrated around this time!
