After I wrapped up the Christmas gift series last week (ha ha– wrap, gifts…), I realized you have to do a lot of scrolling through previous posts to see the full gift list. So, for those of you who came late to the party, here is a summary of the 12 days of gift ideas. I probably should have done it this way in the beginning, but it sure does make one long post.

Love your ideas! Was wondering if you had any thoughts for a good teacher gift aside from an amex gift card? Thanks!
Just saw that you posted some fun ideas in a previous post. Thanks!xx
Westy, after Thanksgiving I am going to post some new little “sirsee” ideas for the teachers this year. I am working on a little box with cocoa, stirrers, and a few cookies. Also look at the teacher gift link in the right margin or the sirsee link across the top! Thanks for reading!
Great ideas Caitlin!! I just ordered a few of the casserole containers for gifts. Thank you! 🙂
I hope all is well with you. I’d love to catch up soon!
Hope you had a great Thanksgiving! So glad I helped with your Christmas shopping. 🙂 Yes– let’s talk soon.
We bought my daughters the Calico Critters a few years ago and they still like to play with them. Love that personalized branding iron too. What a great idea for a manly man!
Nice compendium. I’m so far behind this year because of the move and craziness at work. I’ve been awful.
I wish I could just allow myself to let some things go, but I am too competitive for that! Merry Merry
P.S. Loved the fancy word, compendium– had to look it up!
Just spotted the bacon flavored olive oil! Have you actually tried it yourself? I wonder if I could order it on Amazon.com. They carry everything under the sun! 🙂
I did not try it because it said “bacon flavored” and then vegetarian (???), but I think it is such a good idea. I look for it when I am at stores with sort of gourmet olive oils. I’ll keep you posted if I find it.
