Today's Question:

Ok FESS UP !!!!
Have you every peeked in the presents sitting under the tree ? I remember doing that a couple of times when I was a kid.... with the help of a cat we used to have, who had a bad habit of playing with everything that was under, and on the tree!

Bonus Question:
A couple of you mentioned this, but I know there must be more of us

Do you reuse gift bags ?
Have you ever "oops" given one back to the person who gave it to you ? Heck I reuse the gift wrapping too! - Just kidding, I don't ever remember doing that, or giving a person the same gift he/she gave me.

Extra Credit Question:

What time do you plan on serving Thanksgiving Dinner ? I usually start it around 4:00 PM, on Wednesday Thanksgiving eve! - Actually around 4:00 PM, on Thanksgiving Day.

How close to the that time will it actually happen ? Give or take 30 minutes.

Answer : you guess the Question

Black fuzzy socks with a 4" wide leopard band - Hmmm... Karla, are you sure you want me to ask that question? LOL..

I know Livewire has a "leopard band", and I'm sure she has "Black fuzzy socks", so.. I suppose the question might be: Who would Mike like to see show up on his front door, on Christmas morning? - I can already hear a "Go to your room" on the way!

My parents had gone to a Christmas party and I got this overwhelming desire....of opening all my gifts. Woo Hoo!!

Well my wee younger siblings wanted to do theirs and I told them they couldn't, that it would ruin their Christmas ..... they were so mad at me!!!
They said, they were going to tell on me... well good thing I had some wee little bit of leverage of things .....!!
Well as the story goes, we all had a wonderful Merry Christmas...

Do you reuse gift bags ?
Yes, it is very good recycling!!!

Have you ever "oops" given one back to the person who gave it to you ?
Never....

What time do you plan on serving Thanksgiving Dinner ?
Some time around 3pm!

How close to the that time will it actually happen ?
Hmmmm....... half hour maybe...
Well as my son always says.....yeah, right mom!!!

November 25, 1949 Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer" appeared on the music charts and became THE musical hit of the Christmas season.
Their celebrating with saltant, joyfully!!

National Shopping Reminder day. LOL, I don't think my wife ever needs a reminder!

I never peeked at presents, but I would do a little shaking and see who got the biggest present!

We do reuse gift bags and they probably have gotten back to the same person.

Thanksgiving dinner will be around noon and if it is late, it will be only 15 minutes or so.

What do the socks look like that Karla wears when it is cold?
Black fuzzy socks with a 4" wide leopard band

Peeked in gifts? Yes, I do remember one time when I was in high school, yes high school, when my mother was out and I unwrapped and rewrapped all of them! It was luggage-baby blue! (which is what I wanted that year!)


Re-use gift bags? Yes, and see no problem with it even if it gets back to the one who gave it to me.

Thanksgiving Dinner time? We are actually going out to dinner this Thanksgiving, but I usually plan to serve it at 1:00 and it usually ends up actually being served around 2:30.

Question corresponding to the answer of the day?

What does the fashionable woman wear while preparing Thanksgiving dinner?

We are going to follow you for the rest of the day

When I was a child, I'd always find the gifts before they were wrapped under the tree.

We reuse the bags and sometimes remember what they held yester year.

We are eating at a restuarant this year so dinner will be hot and served on time. 2:30 pm

Were the fuzzy black socks a "Secret Santa" gift?

I don't think I ever did that....even as a chld...but then again.....I dont think the presents were put under the tree until after we went to bed on Christmas Eve.....and as an adult.....Of Course Not!

Do you reuse gift bags ?
Have you ever "oops" given a gift bag back to the person who gave it to you ?


Absolutely and sometimes they go back and forth several years....I don't know who buys the new ones......I think all the ones I give and get are re-used....except the wine and liquor bottle ones...they are usually new.


Extra Credit Question:

We are gathering at noon.....i would guess dinner will be served around 2 pm but it is at someone elses house so not sure and not in control of that.




Answer : you guess the
Question

Black fuzzy socks with a 4" wide leopard band


and the question is....Did we get anything that you want to re-gift at the Yankee Swap?

Today's Question:

Have you every peeked in the presents sitting under the tree ?
Of course, I was a normal child.

Do you reuse gift bags ? Oh yeah.


Have you ever "oops" given a gift bag back to the person who gave it to you ?
In our family group this has happened several times! No big deal for us.

What time do you plan on serving Thanksgiving Dinner ? 2 p.m.

How close to the that time will it actually happen ? Probably close but you will have to ask after the fact to find out for sure.

What socks would look good on Clay Lady's feet?
