Got my gift...

...and every single one of you were wrong.

My adult gift (that Mom decided in the end to give me all of) is a set of 12 lead crystal glasses.

Mom gets on these weird kicks every few years or so. A few years ago it was jewelry, she got upset that we had no heirloom jewelry to pass down to future generations. So every Christmas for about the past 4 or 5 years I was given a piece of jewelry that is to be passed down to my kids and then on to their kids, etc etc etc.

Now the kick is lead crystal (I'm not complaining) so every Christmas for the next few I'll be getting some lead crystal thing.

I could really use a fancy iced tea pitcher next year Mom.
