SDMB Secret Santa Exchange

Morning, children! Here is the new list. Mama Zappa, I have checked most thoroughly and your e-mail went into my spam box. Odd, that. So I have you now!

No one is more surprised at this than I: count me in.

Thanks, KneadToKnow! You’re in. Please post in the thread with some ideas of what you might like to receive.

Oh, Jebus. I’m not particular. I eat stuff, I drink stuff, I wear stuff. I got nothing pierced, inked, or otherwise decorated, unless you count the mistletoe I usually wear on my belt buckle around the holidays.

If my Secret Santa wants to peruse my Amazon wish list for ideas, they’ll be able to find it with my real name and mailing address.

Email sent - count me in.
As for gift suggestions, a calendar would be good (my old one expires next month). Or chocolates. Or nice tea. Or bath stuff. You know - the usual.

Meanwhile, I look so normal. Do you look so normal?

Ok I’m in. If you get me I’d appreciate anything except

  1. Clothes
  2. Mint flavored Food
  3. Reading Material not in English

Ok, last update for today:

I’m in. I’ve never done this before, so this should be fun.

Let’s see, I’m not a knitter, but I crochet so yarn would be wonderful. I do a lot of crafts and I’m about to start water color. So paint brushes or 100% cotton paper would be sublime too. Not sure of price so I thought I’d mention it. Pretty much any crafty stuff would be cool.

I collect Snoopy things.

I love candles.

I don’t need any lotion/showergel/spray type things, I’m overflowing now.

I’m into photography so believe it or not an 8"x10" frame or 2 would be welcome.

I’m in. I’ve never done one of these, but it sounds fun!

I don’t know what I’d want or not. Hmm. Clothes are out, unless we’re talking funny socks or something, because I’m impossible to fit. My favorite color is dark blue. I love candles and celestial themed stuff.

But really, surprise me. It’s more fun that way.

Email sent.

I like local things. Food is always cool, but I don’t drink coffee or like dark chocolate. My favorite color is purple. Really, I’ll be happy with anything.

Also, I don’t open the gift until Christmas morning, so send something that will keep.

Forgot to mention - I have an Amazon wish list under my real name. Can’t wait to see who I get this year - last year was fun!

Purple Haze

I’m definitely in! I love these things.

I have no preferences. A surprise is best. Send something that you would enjoy, which will tell me something about you.

Hmmm. Harry Potter and knitting. I think I just might havethe perfect give for Shirley Ujest. Hey, we geeks have to stick together, right?

A new list and a bump:

Come on, people, sign up! :slight_smile:

geek pron. Pure and simple.

I’m in - just sent my e-mail.
As for hints - I’m another geek who likes stuff with local flavor. I love to read. I always seem to pick the same kinds of books (Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Horror, Romance - not Harlequin though, I do have standards) so a surprise is always nice. One SDMB Secret Santa from Christmas Past, sent me a book I would never have bought myself and I loved it. To be honest, I like surprises more than anything.

Email sent.

I like knitting, horses, dogs, milk chocolate, reading, fun jewelry (small and a little bit different from the norm).

My favorite colors are blue and turquoise.

Nothing scenty, please- I live with someone with a very sensitive nose and I would hate not to be able to use your gift!
Monica

I so hope I get you. I’ll go a little outside of the price limit.

If someone else gets you, that person should PM me for ideas. I know my way around the good stuff.

Email sent. Some ideas for me:

I read a lot - I’d love a copy of your favorite book. I do cross-stitch. I love chocolate-covered nuts. I’d love a wall calendar, with a theme of castles or ancient maps or art. I like desktop toys and I need a new coffee mug (but please no coffee, I drink tea.)
