How excellent!!! Are you making any stuff?

We've gotten out of "buying" things over the past few years - however, given our access to incrediblely cheap and yet really nice consumables here in Nanjing we are buy a TON of crap to bring back for people. Mostly silk (pajamas, bags, etc), paintings and some embroidery. Some interesting tailored stuff (I'm doing some very fancy silk dog coats and an Anime costume for my nephew), that kind of stuff. I suppose it will get old in a year or so, but right now, it's kind of fun. :innocent:

Nope, not buying anything, not making anything. To be honest, Xmas means nothing to me - it is just another day - and all the stress around it really annoys me. People are overall meaner and nastier, not kinder. The pressure of "I have to get the right present and I have to have it NOW" takes away from any "spirit" of the season IMHO (can you tell I've worked in retail!? :psycho: )
