Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

talk about falling down on the job.

Seriously! For the stocking, I often got a fancy toothbrush (and in my easter basket, too), and of course an orange.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Did you get a fresh set of Crayolas for his stocking, msbelle? I always got crayolas and a new watercolor set in mine. LOVED IT.

I think I vote bread pudding for dessert.

Why is it so cold in here????

Also, I have already cracked the whip this morning, so I think I'm done with working....

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

What do we think?

Is this an "all of the above" kind of quiz?

“Not dead yet!”

There are only five of us, so I reluctantly have to choose only one.

I suspect Lewis will want the Chocolate Malt cake, which, admittedly, looks very good.

The Ginger Pear and bread pudding both appeal to my sense of home that I associate with the holidays.

I vote ginger/pear upside down.

KR, he has like a bagillion crayons and prefers colored pencils anyway. He has 2 boxes of those. a new pencil sharpener would work though, as well as colored paper for airplanes.

Jesse, I am doing a tangerine in there even though he will NOT get it and proclaim it lame. a toothbrush as well as charcter toothpaste will work though (I have denied him the character toothpaste for months).

Thanks for the ideas!

Balsa wood airplane? They're cheap but they're actually fun and last for a bit. (Emmett and Matilda both got balsa wood planes in their stockings. Emmett's is the fancy kind with a rubber band.)

Not if you wrap it in tin foil, he won't!

might do. we literally have boxes of made paper airplanes - he has 4 books on how to make different ones. The making I think is more than half of it and they mostly get flown indoors, so I'll have to think about whether balsa wood flying about the living room is a great idea.

psst - Jesse is out of touch with what a 7yo will think is lame, pass it on.
