Totally agree.. not into gifts. We exchange names in my family which makes it super simple. I just worry about one gift. Sometimes we require them to be handmade and that's kind of fun. Haha!

Tue, 08 Dec 2009 15:58:46 +0000 http://www.katyelliott.com/blog/?p=5686#comment-5982 Oh man, just get yourself the stick blender-make sure it comes with a whisk attachment for easy whipped cream in 30 seconds (you have to be careful not to make butter!). Ben gave me those boots, too, and I wore them for the first time the other day. So toasty! I am sadly between sizes, so mine are a touch big even with thick socks, but they are awesome. Happy birthday! Oh man, just get yourself the stick blender-make sure it comes with a whisk attachment for easy whipped cream in 30 seconds (you have to be careful not to make butter!).

I bought my first pair of Bean Boots when we were in Maine over thanksgiving. I just adore them. I felt like it was a monumental day in my life back east...people in my hometown on the beach in California wouldn't know what to make of them! XX Kate So many wonderful things.
