Christmas this year was great, especially compared to last year when I was on chemo. The bar for making this a great Christmas wasn’t too since all I wanted was to not be sick. And I wasn’t!
Husband outdid himself with the gifts, again. I got many pairs of pyjamas and socks. Getting excited over clothing is a sign that I’m officially an old person and no longer a child. But the best two gifts were on opposite ends of the cost spectrum: a tea strainer and a Kindle Touch.
How cute is this tea strainer?
It floats! Quack!
He knew that out of all the things he got me, this was going to make me the happiest. And he’s right! I love the little stand he comes in and that he floats around in my tea! I’ve named him George.
The other super cool thing is the Kindle Touch. I love my Kindle 2nd generation and it was a real life saver in the hospital. But I was ready for an upgrade to one that’s a wee bit faster.
The best part was that Husband did not gift me any yarn so I’m going to be able to stick to my yarn diet. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season and will have a great new year.

Gosh that’s a cute strainer… but I’m trying to wrap my head around how it works. Off to Google!
The duck is sitting on top of the strainer part. You pop him off and put in the tea then screw him back on. Then you have a little duck floating around letting the tea bloom. It’s very cute and he makes me smile in the morning.
Glad to hear that you had a better Christmas! And George is adorable.
Such a cute tea strainer!!!
Awesome gifts! It is great to know that your holiday was happy and healthy. Best wishes for the same in 2012!
George is awesome! Enjoy!
You’re right, that is one cute tea strainer. I think I would have been giddy too! So glad this Christmas is a healthy one for you.
That’s just adorable! I’m glad you had a happy and healthy Christmas.
I’ve long since given up my yarn diet, but I’m glad you’re able to stay with yours!
