And what lies in this Whitman's Sampler box, buried in one of my kitchen drawers? Candies? No, it's some extremely fragile ornament that a friend made me in 2001.
The stuff is flaking right off, I don't put up Xmas trees, and I haven't even spoken to the woman for years. I appreciated the gift at the time, and you can call me a Grinch, but at this point, a photo of it will do just as well. And now that it's that time of year, I'm going to try my best to not BUY more clutter than I can handle. We'll see how well that goes this month.
