Tell Me Something Tuesday!

Welcome to my weekly meme Tell Me Something Tuesday where I ask you something and you tell me the answer!! It’s as simple as that and I thought it would be a great way for all of us bloggers to get to know one another! So this is how it works: I post a question here on my blog and then i give my answer. I invite all the bloggers to take the question and post it on their blog with their answer and we can hop around and see what everyone says! If you are a blogger don’t forget to leave your link at the bottom of this post! If you aren’t a blogger – that’s okay too!! Leave your answer in the comments section!

 Tell Me Something:

Stocking Stuffer Bonanza! Tell us some fun stocking stuffers you have given in the past or would love to get this year!

My answer:

So I have a confession to make: I have been terrible about remembering TMST this month. 🙁 I do apologize and I could ramble on about all the stuff I have been doing that’s caused my memory to go out the window but no one wants to hear all that. LOL! Since I forgot to post my answer last week I will post it here today as part of my answer for this week.

Also, I do have an announcement to make… I have asked Heidi over at Rainy Day Ramblings (http://www.rainydayramblings.com)  to take over Tell Me Something Tuesday for me. She has been with the meme from day one and often helps me come up with the weekly questions. Her blog is very popular and she does a wonderful job. I honestly think that she will take this meme and make it much more successful than I am able. I am just too busy with my writing to keep up with everything. BUT I hope to participate when I can!

So let’s move on to this week’s answer!

Last week I asked everyone about their decorations for Christmas and about their tree. Every year I decorate with the same decorations but I love them so that’s okay.

Here are a few of my favorite decorations that we put up:

  

This week’s question is all about stocking stuffers! I have to say every year i try and come up with creative ways to stock a stuffing….. but every year I do mostly the same things, lol.

Here are my top picks for stocking stuffers:

1.) Scratch off lottery tickets. – I put these in my husbands stocking every year and my kids (now that they are older) steal them from him because they like to scratch them. So this year i will be putting them in all the stockings on my mantel. 😉

2.) Candy. – Yup, its an oldie but a goodie.

3.) Pouches of hot cocoa miz. – not the kind you get in a box, lol. that’s a little weird…. I get the single serve kind in the colorful pouches. I usually get flavored as well in flavors like caramel and Irish creme.

4.) Chapstick – everyone loves a fun holiday themed chapstick. (well i do – but I am a chapstick junkie)

5.) little stuffed animals. I like to poke them out of the top so when my kids get up in the morning they see the little animals peeking at them from the stocking.

I can’t wait to hear your stocking stuffer ideas – I’m always on the look out for fun and unexpected items!
