Ugh! Family feuds like that are never fun. Believe me, there are plenty of those in my family. Sigh …

A book I wouldn’t read would have been miles better than the olive tray.

I think the closest to a “worst” gift was when someone gave me James Michener’s CHESAPEAKE — and I don’t read Michener.

My cousin who was mad at her sister was planning on giving her this nice watch set that she got for free since she didn’t have to pay for it. I told her to just do something thoughtful instead to prove you are the bigger person. Guess who got the watch set? No, I don’t believe that she was doing that because she thought I liked it. She later got mad at me for nothing. At the time she was being a bridezilla and everyone was doing “something” to upset her. *shrugs* So, if it’s the thought that counts, then yea, this was the worst gift.

Ugh! We got maybe an inch before it all melted away. They’re calling for some more on Sunday, though. But 39 inches? That’s just crazy!

Absolutely buried in snow! We got 39 inches in 3 days. It is an absolute mess up here. At least the Weather Channel went home, so maybe we aren’t going to get much more.

Aw, that’s nice of you to say. Yes, the olive tray is a classic. I told my dad to tell my stepmom that I didn’t *need* anything like that this year. We’ll see what I unwrap in a few weeks. 😉

How are you? Buried in snow?

Ah, I see. Yeah, it’s hard to top the olive tray. It’s just so bizarre and not useful at all. LOL.

The olive tray is a classic, though. Hopefully, she won’t outdo herself this year. 😉

Blech, your olive tray still wins though. I can’t wait to hear what you get this year!
