After exchanging gifts via the "draw a name" method (and putting an even lower maximum spending cap on it this year), we sat together and watched a marathon of <i>Man Versus Food</i> while drinking mulled wine and eating homemade ChexMix. It was a great way to spend the holiday.DropEdgehttp://www.dropedgeofyonder.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8678310.post-50721435426541647272011-01-04T12:14:10.773-05:002011-01-04T12:14:10.773-05:00Aw, "best Christmas ever" just warms my ...Aw, "best Christmas ever" just warms my heart.
