Ive splurged for new equipment and gadgets already this year myself so really i dont NEED anything, but … I would like Sinterklaas to dig up a copy of The Concise Guide to Dermal Needling, Expanded Medical Edition 2013 by Lance Setterfield MD if he’s feeling generous to me (very good girl) this year. Its about the _only thing_ I havent broken down and bought that I want. Godiva always appreciated tho. 😛 ---

I would like a nice cocktail shaker, like one of those shiny silver ones. I’m pretty sure that’s way less than $50, so if Santa decided to throw in a set of martini glasses, I wouldn’t object! ---

Guitar strings. The Guitar Center is running a special: one dozen sets for an astronomically el cheapo price. I made sure SWMBO saw the ad. ---

> [@Boyo\_Jim](#): > > Does a hooker count as a “live animal”? You’d better hope not, because for 50 bucks, I could probably send you a couple! As for me, a lower grade of Glenfiddich single malt would probably be less than $50 here. Hard to say, as they’ve just spiked the already-high alcohol tax AGAIN. ---

A small food dehydrator would be nice! Don’t know what they cost tho, so if it’s more that $50, I’ll just take seasons 4-10 of Friends on DVD. ---

Pure decadence. > > Thank you! > > (Hmm, I wonder if **Suburban Plankton** will see this post. 😉 ) Oh my, the gloxina is fantastic. I would absolutely love one of those [mobius](http://www.wovenartware.com/images/mobius%20shawl/MOC001bg.JPG) scarf-shawl-cowl thingies made from it, the huge oversized really [light and lacy](http://home.comcast.net/~gandal195/MoebiusHowTo001.jpg) sort. Hm, anybody have any idea how much it might cost to get enough to have one knitted or crocheted for me? My brain is fried and I am not up to trying to calculate one for a 3x sized fat chick. :smack:☹ ---

A 12’ Fourth Doctor scarf. I knit myself one many years ago. I only got thru half of the pattern when realized I was counting crochet stitches, but by then it was over 12’ so I stopped. I grew up in a household that had 3 generations of crocheters, what did I know about the difference in counting? ---
