1) A nice sweater from the Gap or Old Navy. Suitable for work but a little funky. (Size XL)
2) A new white button down dress shirt (Size 17 1/2)
3) A new dress tie (classy with minimal patterns, navy blue silk would be nice)
4) Hand knitted socks
5) A new stuffed toy, preferrably one that "speaks" (not "squeaks")when you squeeze it. (This one is for my dog, Keeper. His Mr. Froggy "Ribbit, ribbit" died on him this week.)
6) HMV/Future Shop/Best Buy gift certificates
6) Grindhouse Special Edition DVD (apparently this one won't be released until early next year so a gift certificate would come in handy)
7) "Neverwhere" by Neil Gaiman, paperback novel.
8) Katana 25 II (code kt25ii) from www.kriscutlery.com
9) The Watchmen movie teaser poster by Dave Gibbons
10) "Anancy and Miss Lou", by Honorable Louise Bennet-Coverly (This book is really hard to find. May be able to order a copy from A Different Booklist in Toronto http://www.adifferentbooklist.com/story.html)
11) "Selected Poems", Lousie Bennet (this book is even harder to find)
12) "Bum Rush the Page: A Def Poetry Jam" Tony Medina and Louis Reyes Rivera
13) "The Dangerous Book for Boys" by Conn Iggulden and Hal Iggulden (I would prefer the UK edition, please)

15) "The America's Test Kitchen Family Cookbook" by the Editor's of Cooking Illustrated

Froggy died? No wonder he is stressed. Keeper is still probably trying to get it to "Ribbit". I don't think he has given up on Tessa Owl yet.
Hey, I've looked at the ATK family cookbook and it's very similar to the Best Recipe. There are some new recipes, though and the format is more manageable.
Also, I really like the source for the katana - cutlery. Ha, ha, ha!
I would also like to point out that the stuffed toy is for Keeper, not you, and should therefore be on his Christmas wish list.
Ties! If Eric weren't so tall, I'd give you some of his. As a work from home Dad, he needs very few ties. BTW, I see an ensemble gift in your future - shirt, tie, sweater with matching socks. Tres chic, perhaps.
Boy, I do ramble.
Want to look nice? try including your sleeve length with your neck size. You could end up getting a 34/35 length sleeve or even a 29" sleeve.
-from the girl who can purchase for her husband two pair of pants, three fitted shirts, atie, 6 pr. socks, 3 undershirts, and 3 pairs of underwear in under 45 minutes.
Update! Update! How did Santa do filling out your wish list?
Santa brought us the 30-minute Best Recipe. Fabu! We actually made dinner in 36 minutes tonight, frozen meat to steaming dish on the table. And it tasted good.
