random thoughts re. gifts.

"food is usually a good choice. we all gotta eat, 'no?" even diabetics won't turn down good food. and after some days or weeks, there won't be none left to lie around the house to dirty it up.
when i give gift, price is usually not an issue to consider. within limits, of course.
what's wrong with giving red ribbon black forest, if (it's common knowledge in the group that) the recipient likes it, too?

i want to give something that i feel they will be able to easily use and appreciate.

sa exchange gifts naman,
i always wrap something that exceeds the agreed limit of such gift. i want the recipient to be happy and not just brake even. yes, there are still some folks who are mindful of the price of the gift...
one of my favorite gimmicks in exchange gifts, is to stick a couple of escodas around a can of fruit cocktail, then giftwrap the entire thing. meron nang pang-media noche, meron pang pang-gastos.
