Mom- Some assorted home-made scented soaps and candles, and a small painting singing the praises of espresso. All bought at a local small business, so that's cool.

Dad- A coffee mug shaped like an automatic pistol, and bacon flavored hot sauce. He's just that kind of guy.

Brother 1 (Age 20)- Also some assorted candies and such, and a collection of dried salamis and such. I'm thinking about getting him a gift card, too. He's the most impossible person to shop for, I swear.

Brother 2 (Age 17)- A small cord that he needed to hook his bass up to yet another new doohickey (he picked it out, I bought it), a few assorted gag candies (such as Tabasco chocolate), and a bottle of banana ketchup.

Brother 3 (Age 11)- Ice Age 4 DVD/Bluray/Digital copy.

Brother 4 (Age 10)- Olive Garden gift card. The boy is utterly obsessed with Olive Garden, and wants to take my mother out to dinner. He's a classy little guy.

Brother 5 (Age 9)- A LEGO set.

Best friend- A Zildjian hat.

I've also "adopted" a four year old boy in downtown Louisville whose family is struggling with poverty. I'm going Saturday to deliver a set of clothes, a warm blanket, a winter coat, and a "Break The Ice" game. I did the same thing last year and the grandma got pissed at me because I forgot something, so hopefully that doesn't happen this year.

That should be it. I'm gonna have a heart attack when I look at my bank account.

EDIT- Yes, I really do have that many siblings, though my 20 year old brother is technically not legally adopted.

I really only have one person to shop for, and I'll do that this weekend at the very last minute I'm sure. I was going to be thoughtful and try an get a gift for everybody, but it just seems like a lot of effort. Gifts for or from other adults at Christmas time just seems like a waste of time, and money really. It just seems expected, and to me has very little meaning when thats the case. I place more value on a kind word from a stranger than a gift thats only being given more out of obligation than anything else. Long as my special someone is happy I'm happy, and expect nothing nor want nothing from anyone.

For my sister:

My heart to someone special.

I bought this Linkin Park hoodie at tshirtsky.com for my GF, then she said it's ugly. D**m it.

alot of love :) its the best gift in the world
I bought my boy toy a cd and some candy :)

I bought my brother a flannel shirt since I try to dress him across continents. He's 15 and goes to a nerdy private school so I make it my civic duty to make him as cool as possible. I got my mom a bunch of kindle books and my dad a cookbook. God I miss them....
I got one of my roommates vegan marshmallows and one of them olives since I ate all of theirs. I took my best friend and my god family (they came an visited me from the states) out to dinner.
