Only Four Months Till Christmas

I'm going to do all last-minute shoppers a favor and make a Christmas wish list now. This is our eco-friendly tree (that our baby couldn't get to) from last year that we planted afterwards.


Under $10:
Gift cards - Blockbuster; Juice It Up; Subway
Andes Mints - wouldn't be Christmas without Andes in my stocking.
Tangerines - started after I got married.
Bottle of Cherry Coke (my only vice) or Vernor's ginger beer (if you can find it in the glass bottle) - fills up the leg of the stocking. Read the Vernor's story here.
Magazine - wraps around the bottle. Wallpaper is one that always looks interesting but I never can bring myself to buy.

Under $40:
Gift cards - Borders; iTunes; Target
Bud Light Salutes Real Men of Genius Volumes 1, 2, and 3 - 3CD set probably priced under $40 when it was originally released (available used for the highest bidders)
Garfield: 30 Years of Laughs and Lasagne hardcover book (avail. Oct. 28) - huh, my age
Ender in Exile hardcover book (avail. Nov. 11) - new release in the best sci-fi series I've read

Over $1,000:
Laptop with ProTools software, two turntables, and/or dream vacation for our 5th wedding anniversary (this year). Ha! You thought I was going to say "two turntables and a microphone."
