Open thread: What's the best and worst present you got this year?

Did you get an apron this year or maybe you got the gift you have been hinting at all year. Tell us what you got.

OKAY, WE ALL KNOW that Christmas shouldn’t be about presents – it’s about family and appreciating the things we have in life, but getting a present is always nice.

Maybe it was that watch you have been hinting about all year? Maybe it was just something small, but thoughtful, or maybe someone popped the question?

On the other hand, there are always the gifts that you just have to grin about, say thank you, knowing well you will never use it again. Perhaps you’re wondering right now if the person actually knows you at all!
