13 Gifts

If anyone in my family happens to be reading this *eh-hem*, here’s a suggestion list. 😀

1. A cheap mixer. I’m talking the little handheld type whose motors I keep burning out. Yes, I go through them fast. No, I don’t want the big ones. I just burn out the big motors, too.
2. A new laptop. (Hey, I can dream, right?)
3. A new furnace. (Yep, still dreaming)
4. A coupon to Lowes. Seems I’m still going over there at least once a week.
5. An iron. I already have three, but two are buried in storage and the one I can find has a bad plate so it sticks to fabric.
6. A big days-of-the-week pill box because those calcium pills are huge and if they aren’t in the box with the rest, I forget them.
7. A food processor.
8. A radio alarm clock that doesn’t glow all night long. Mine does this eerie red thing.

9. A banana tree – I mean the kind you hang bananas on that sits on the counter, not the kind the bananas grow on.
10. A suitcase that will fit in the overhead compartment because apparently travel doesn’t work the way it used to and my duffel isn’t cutting it.
11. Whole cloves. I don’t know why I have such a hard time making myself get them, but there it is.
12. A really fast memory chip for my digital camera.
13. Computer memory.

No elbows! And forget the room thing, too. I don’t need elbow room after all. Like you would actually believe something I snapped while cooking over Thanksgiving. But after “A life” and “BS” I wouldn’t put it past you. You all really have to quit asking “what do you want?” sans “for Christmas.”
