A different thread got me to thinking about our wish lists for Christmas.

What if......

What if we all posted a wish list on here and we all picked a person or a thing off of that list and sent it? I know its late for Christmas, but its the thought, right? I mean, lets say my list is..

Dishtowels
Fels Naptha
Clothespins


Ok, so someone looks at my list and says "I'm at the store, I'll spend an extra $3 for a bar of Fels and send it"

Yes, the economy has us strapped, but knowing you're gift is wanted and will be USED is a good thing, right?

What do you all think? I won't be offended in the least bit if its shot down, it was just a thought!! :)

we could just end it this week-end. that's plenty of time to pick up a dish towel and toss it in the mail.

flour sack hand towel
kombacha (however you spell that) starter sponge

I think we would need 1 person to coordinate because what if 20 of us sent you a bar of fels?

ok, just off the cuff....

how would it work if let's say I picked Dace to give a gift. I contacted her by PM and said I'd like to send you a surprise, can I have your address. She can say yes or no. If she says yes, she posts "I've been chosen" (or whatever) that way others would know to pick someone else.

My list would be:

- any amount of raw wool

I am in....

I hear so many talk about great magazines like MEN and some other mags..... so I would love any old used homesteading type magazine - my particular interests are soap making, chickens, preserving food, cooking.
