Secret Santa Can Suck It Swap, Round 2



Bee over at BeesMusings is hosting a Secret Santa Can Suck It Swap, and I am the lucky Secret Santa for Meg over at Prefers Her Fantasy Life. The whole purpose of the swap is to treat a fellow blogger to pictures of gifts you would purchase if you had the time, money, inclination, etc.


I have been a bit of a Scrooge this year (with a whopping 2 presents purchased thus far and no tree up to date) so, in true Scrooge fashion, my interpretation is this: What I would give if I gave a crap.


Hmmm... What I would give if I gave a crap...









Oh, no, sorry. That's what I would give if I gave a Carp.





What I would give if I gave a crap...








For the record, although no-bake cookies may LOOK like crap, they are actually most yummy. And no, that is not my gift. But now I want to make some.






So after a couple of days stalking your blog, what has your Secret Santa (a.k.a. your Scrooge-meister) picked for your Christmas pleasure? Three gifts.







1. The first one for your beer blogging pleasure.




"The problem with a drinking from a 40 oz, is that the paper bag you wrapped it in doesn't insulate the malt liquor properly, Now unless you start chugging, you're gonna end up with a warm beverage. Well, you need to hook yourself up with the latest in trendy malt liquor consumption accessories, the cool new 40cozy - 40 oz Beer Cozy . This neoprene insulated sleeve slides over the bottle just like a regular beer can cozy, but it also features a built-in handle and comes in two fly patterns, Royal Crowns or Bandana. Now chill out, you classy gangsta!"




2. The second one for the enjoyment of your electric meter reader (lets hope he's fairly intelligent). It's a Tesla doll. I think he's kind of cute.










"Nikola Tesla: apart from having a cool mustache and a potential love affair with a pigeon, he was a genius in the field of awesomeness. Who else had the nerve to challenge Edison in a literal power struggle (AC vs. DC)? Who else was keen enough to build an earthquake machine and literally rock the world? And who else did all this and more with literally shocking (literal is the word of the day) theatrics? Yeah, that's right. Tesla."





3. And the third for the enjoyment of the family. It's a graffitti wall, so the whole family can partake, like a family game night. My husband hates board games, he'd actually like this a whole lot better. I didn't read the fine print in the swap rules- Is there a penalty for taking a gift back after you've given it?








I think I want to keep the beer cozy too.






So Merry Christmas to you and yours, I've enjoyed my blog stalking excursion and will continue to stalk in the future.




Love, me.

I kept trying to put some graffiti on the wall, but could not leave a mark. My mouse pointer must be outta ink.

If it's a cookie I'd eat it. It wouldn't matter what it looked like. :)

How kind of you! I too dig the 40oz hugger.

The beer cozy is perfect!! Thank you so much. I'm sorry to be late getting over here--dare I say I got a bit too cozy with a few beers last night.

And the graffiti wall--how sweet to give us a family gift. I love it. If the kids don't use it, I got loads more rock memorabilia to put on it.

You can be my secret santa anytime.
