Gift baskets or collections are always a good idea – as collections of things just seem to WORK better…get a few things, perhaps from a dollar store and put them together artfully and voila! a classy giftbasket – Do you think commercial giftbasket makers get much higher class stuff most of the time? no…

I also always give BOOKS. It’s gotten to the point between my husband and me that Xmas presents are icing on the cake and not essential stuff – so books always work here. And you can get nicely used ones or vintage ones for pennies on the dollar and new ones at bargain prices at places like Barnes & Noble or Border’s.

It’s really for us just a matter of having wrapped presents to UNWRAP on the 25th…
