    Yeah, that's right; but there is other kind of marmelade too. ;) 'Fazer' sells these 500g boxes branded 'Green Orbs' and they really taste good -and they definitely aren't meant to go with toast. :shake:

    Two books, uncluding "The Bush-Hater's handbook" (the other is by some spanish authour I've never heard of)
    A wallet.
    Two pairs of pants, one black and one dark blue.
    And a mouse with its assorted mouse pad. It's the one item I dare not show in public. It's shaped like a woman's body, and the two buttons are... you get the idea. It's actually the funniest gift I've had in years, though I still cannot believe this was my aunt's idea. Oh well.

    Box of Peanut Brittle (lasted about 48 hours)
    Touque with Toronto Maple Leafs logo on it (came in real handy waiting to get in for the boxing day sale. The $50 bill inside got me Rise of Nations Gold at Walmart the next day.).
    Toronto Maple Leafs Blanket (Does this mean that there won't be hockey until Hell freezes over?)
    Toronto Maple Leafs Boxer Shorts.
    Box of Generic Turtles (finished Monday night.)
    Bag of Gourmet Jelly beans (includes Cinamin, bubble gum, Cherry and Watermelon.)
    Hockey Heroes Calendar
    Three X-box Games(DOA 3, Mission Impossible and Mech Assault)

    One more present coming after a white elephant. On a more interesting note, I did spend over $600 at the boxing day sales, but I'll start a new thread for that...

    I got the new Live album "Awake" complete with the second disc featuring their video clips - very cool, now I'm on a mission to buy the two Live albums I don't yet have.

    I also got an authentic Zippo pouch for my Zippo lighter and a new leather wallet ('real' leather? I hope not), two new 'muscle shirts' even though I don't really have the muscles to wear them but they're more comfortable than 'wifebeaters'.

    Still a couple to come from family that couldn't make it to my place on Christmas.
