This morning when we got up we discovered that we'd gone through almost the whole bottle.

Anyway, my prezzies this year:

A 2010 kitteh ornament
Some cute "peace sign" earrings
The obligatory pecan log
A tin of homemade shortbread (pecan & almond)
This:

(Phillips SRU5107/27 7-Device Universal Remote)

Two books:




Some DVD/BluRay:




Some Beatles:


And this surprise:

(Shun Classic 6" Serrated Utility Knife)
