I hope I don't get any of the above as I already have: George Foreman Baby George rotisserie George Foreman G5 grill (removable plates) 2 coffee makers Kitchenaid the paninni is the only one I don't have & the GF G5 can be used to make them. If I leave it to other people I'd never get what I want. |

My cooking present was a nice Jaccard Mandolin. As for consumables, I got a bottle of Gran Marnier, two bottles of brandy, a box of dark chocolate wafers and a box od candied stem ginger in dark chocolate. |

We don't exchange gifts for Xmas, and we do avoid malls, so "Xmas" presents usually involve things bought in October that will help us avoid all retail outlets for the following 3 months. The closest thing I got that's cooking or kitchen related is Claudia Rodin's _Arabesque: A Taste of Morocco, Turkey, & Lebanon_. I also got _Water for Elephants_, Sara Gruen _Life Studies_, Susan Vreeland a collection of Alice Munro short stories and the first season of Ugly Betty on DVD. The most interesting is turning out to be _New Sudden Fiction_ edited by Shapard & Thomas, but that has to go back to the library. --Lia |

> > What's 'Ugly Betty' ? Ugly Betty is a ridiculously silly spoof of a soap opera which is in its second season and has been playing on Thursday nights. Typical for me, I never get into anything hot and popular until everyone else is over it. That means I see t.v. when it comes out on DVD. I'm not even sure I'm recommending it. It's awfully stupid, but it's just the thing for me when I have these days off and am avoiding malls. It took me a while to get into it, but now I'm laughing out loud. I read about Ugly Betty when it was Betty le Fea. Betty le Fea was a Spanish language telenovela that was so popular and had such a surprise ending that news of it reached the English language newspapers. A telenovela is a little like a soap in its characters and themes, but it runs for a designated time and has a clear beginning, middle, and end. A few years after its ending, it came out as an English language television series. Apparently there have been some significant changes. Here's the web page. http://abc.go.com/primetime/uglybetty/index?pn=index --Lia |

And can others participate in it? What I've read about micro loans in other areas sounds really wonderful. I got a tagine from my daughter and a really good 2 1/2 quart saucier from D for Christmas. I also got a biography of Marco Polo and a Modern Lovers tee shirt. "Road runner, road runner!"

I was also given a very nice cast iron dutch oven and an OXO silicone oven mitt. I'm a happy camper. Mary |

Food items I recieved: three Cella's chocolate-covered cherries (indulged in candy for the first time in forever) and three kinds of nuts. I gave the wife something for which she's been looking for years; a set of anodized colored measuring spoons found (where else?) on Ebay. These are about 40+ years old, I think. Too bad someone doesn't make 'em now. I'd like a set in bright colors. But she was thrilled anyway. Best -- Terry |

I live in Texas, so one needs to also consider the cost of air conditioning 12 months out of the year.. It uses less energy than an electric oven and doesn't heat up the house as much. I cook lots of things in it.. Turkey @ Thanksgiving, rib roast yesterday. For new years, a pork tenderloin.. The basket is great for ribs (better than the rib rack, imo), chicken pieces and anything else that doesn't fit well on spit. > > Andy |

If we're listing consumables, Santa filled my stocking with lots of decadent treats, including Trader Joe's wasabi peas, candied macadamias, Belgian milk chocolate bars, and a solid chocolate Santa Claus. Non-TJ stuff included two assortments of Jelly Belly's, The Chocolate Traveler bittersweet chocolate wedges, a Toblerone bar, dark chocolate covered Altoids, and Sour Patch Kids.
