Originally Posted By TiggerPooh1973 Well first off, I love Christmas! That and Halloween are my favorite holidays. I go crazy with decorations and stuff for both and could never have enough, lol. I am a girly girl and like all that fru-fru stuff....you know, lotions, soaps, scented lip gloss, that sort of thing. Favorite Disney characters other than the obvious Pooh and Tigger are Tink, Maleficent, Lilo, Stitch, Dopey, Jack & Sally. I collect Maleficent stuff and Haunted Mansion stuff. I do collect Disney pins. I love getting ones from the parks other than WDW because I do not get to those often....or ever when it comes to the ones outside the US. I also collect HM, Maleficent, Lilo & Stitch and Disney Villain pins. I love Lilo stuff and it's hard to find, most things are Stitch, not Lilo. I love chocolate. Anything chocolate. Chocolate and peanut butter together, even better. I drink coffee, not tea, but I have plenty of mugs. Favorite Disney movies are Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Toy Story. Probably easier to just name the ones I don't like which is pretty much Home on the Range. LOVE the POTC movies and Orlando Bloom!! I also collect shot glasses from different places. I use antenna toppers all the time. Any toys for Lilo are good, just remember she's tiny, only about 7 or 8 pounds. The only sport I watch is football. I am a big Dallas Cowboys fan and any Dallas stuff is cool with me. I love candles of all sorts. Christmas tree scented, vanilla, lavender. I have an Italian charm bracelet with only Disney stuff on it. I like little desk things too, like pens, highlighters, cool little post-its. I love to cook and bake and collect recipes to try all the time. Also any little cooking gadgets or things for entertaining are cool too. Like the wine charms, little dip spreaders, cocktail plates. I love baking supplies too, like the different little sprinkles and stuff like that, it's hard to find here. When I am in the states I go to party stores all the time and pick up all different kinds of little things. I love that stuff and we do not have a party store here. Napkins, plates, cocktail toothpicks, drink stirrers. I love it all. I read alot when I have time. Two of my favorite authors are Dean Koontz and Stephen King. I also love the Harry Potter books. I do read some "girly" stuff too like Jennifer Crusie and the Shopaholic books. You can never have too many purses in my book! My favorite color is purple. I have a Mr. Potato Head that I love getting diffent parts for. I love to play Sudoko. My favorite TV shows are Grey's Anatomy (McDreamy!), Smallville (Tom Welling!), 24, Lost, House, Bones and Supernatural. I loved the X-Files and miss that show. I do have pierced ears and love jewelry. I like dangly chandelier type earrings. One of the biggest parts of the Bash to me though is the online spoiling too. I love getting e-cards or games or just a post from my Pal.

Originally Posted By sherrytodd I love anything from the Disney parks.

If you'd like, feel free to make a mortgage payment. =) Since we've just moved from an apartment, I've been limited on the amount of holiday things that I could buy due to limited space. I've got the space now so I'd love wonderful little holiday things. My Christmas tree is full of ornaments that I collect from different places we go or represent things that are special to me. A good ornament that would reflect my LP year would be nice for the tree. I love scrapbooking goodies and you can always make my day with candy.

Originally Posted By Tiggirl This part is always the hardest part for me... Anyhoo, My dear Mark (Crystalskull) and myself are bashing as a couple/team this year. This was so WE could better spoil our future pal and NOT to get more goodies ourselfs. LOL! We like many of the same things and we know how to share. We love the little things. E-cards, post cards, fun links to keep us entertained. Recipes. I love to cook and Mark loves to eat. Ok ok... I love to eat too. But I love trying new recipes. I like to bake (Mark loooooves pies and cookies and brownies), I love using my crockpot and I like trying new recipes. So if you have any family favorites... by all means share them! ) (speaking of cooking... anyone know how much a hand held mixer is? I might need to go get one one of these days. LOL!) Disney. Well of course we love Disney. My favorite characters are Pie-Eye Mickey, and Chip and Dale. Mark doesn't really have a favorite character per say but I'd say he has a certain soft spot for the characters from the attractions he works (Mansion, Splash, Rafts and Raft driver for Fantasmic!). We both love the parks and their history. We love Disneyland of course but we're very interested in all the parks. Our dream would be to take a world tour and get to visit each of them. So anything relating to different Disney parks, or park history is great. We love to decorate for the holidays. We love this time of year! Halloween, Thanksgiving, Beth's Birthday and Christmas. Such fun! We don't have much in the way of inside the home decorations for said hollidays, however. Decorations or ornaments are always fun. We do celebrate Christmas but not so much in the religious sense. Other holidays that happen around this time of year are facinating though and if you celebrate something else we'd love to learn about it. Speaking of no decorations... the walls of our poor home are bare. LOL! We always want to decorate but we never have the time or money at the same time. Any art or anything to make our house look more home-y is cool. Candles (mmmm, the ones that smell like you're baking or like fresh laundry are the best...Its like you baked and cleaned but you really didn't!), art, pictures, whatever. We have a kitty Mable. We love her to bits. You're free to spoil her instead of us. We won't mind a bit. LOL! Her favorite toys are the verticle blinds and ping pong balls... We love music. We love watching movies We love reading books about Disney. We're going to WDW this February so any tips, trick or suggestions are always helpful. Our short list of "Don't Likes": Coconut (I love it... Mark hates it) Vanilla scented things penicillin (I couldn't think of anything else and I'm alergic to it) I think that should give you some ideas whoever you are, oh secretest of pals! ~Beth and Mark

Originally Posted By Travaria Okay here goes my wish list...this is really hard for me because I can never think up what to tell people I want. My friends and family would probably be very jealous if they found out about this list ) To start I just want to say that I am easily amused. Like many others have said just a simple card or a neat link and I'll be super excited. Also anything that you find that is interesting or cute or just neat in some way, I'll probably love. But here is a little run down of some more specif things that I'd like: I read a lot. I'm pretty much a Fantasy girl but I do like a wide variety of other types of books. I tend to stick to the young adult section tho. Also I absolutely love Harry Potter! But yeah, interesting books recommends or gift cards for Borders are always appreciated! Also I would love to get some cool Disney books (on the movies, the parks, anything) preferably one with lots of big beautiful pictures! I also like to write in sprial bound notebooks and would love to have some with fun covers! I just barely started scrapbooking so even just some good ideas for that would be very welcome. I watch a lot of TV, some of my favorites are Lost, House, CSI (Las Vegas only), Heroes and Avatar: The Last Airbender (it's a fun cartoon!). Any kind of Lost merchandise would be great! As for movies I like a wide variety, but I don't watch anything that's rated R. I'm starting to try and build up a personal DVD collection so when I finally do move out I have something to watch so I'd even love to have just the Disney classics or a gift card to anywhere that sells DVDs ) Other things that I would like include Disney themed mugs or drinking glasses, links for my Italian charm bracelet, jigsaw puzzles, I collect My Little Ponies so those are good (specifically the one dressed like Cinderella that they have in Engine Ear Toys...lol), antennae balls, mix cds of your favorite songs (anything but heavy metal or rap) and really just anything cute or interesting or fun. Plus anything homemade would be wonderful. And baked goods and candies are always winners! Favorite Disney Movies/Characters: Mulan is my favorite character, I love The Lion King, The Incredibles and Pirates of the Caribbean (both movies). I'm more into the more recent Disney movies (from The Little Mermaid) because those are the ones that were new when I was litte, but I still have soft spot for many of the classics, especially Sleeping Beauty (but I'm a bit obsessed with seeing her in blue not pink). Dislikes: I'm not really into scented things or bath stuff. I don't do candles either. I don't drink coffee but I have been known to go to Starbucks for other offerings (hot chocolate and the like) other than that I'm really open to anything!
Originally Posted By u k fan Ok, reading these has reminded me of a few things I forgot last time. Firstly, whoever it was back there who mentioned hating raisins is a poster after my own heart. They are evil! I would love a homemade CD. I like a bit of anything. I have a really ecclectic record collection. I like anything that sounds heartfelt if that makes sense, whether that's blues, rock, pop or anything else. I like unusual versions of Disney songs. I'd really like the Oh, Mickey Where Art Thou? CD. I'm not big on Opera unless I'm watching it though! I don't expect any T shirts, but I'm size XXL and love any Mickey shirts. I like a mix of bright Hawaiian style patterns and softer grays and neutrals. I have a Mickey shrine that has lots of little niknaks in it so anything that fits that would be great. I love niknaks and whatnots and bits of cheap old plastic. I'm happy to give a home to any old bits of junk you may have. My tastes are actually really cheap. I probably only own 2 or 3 Disney items that cost more than about $60. My collection is getting so big that I'm thinking of splitting it into "Seasons" and rotating it so anything that is specific to a particular season would be cool. I'm inundated with plushes so unless it's a really cool one I'm fine for those. I also collect Disney mugs and glasses so they'd be cool to receive. At some point I will be decorating a room themed to Mickey so any home interior pieces would be cool. I'm going for the basic yellow and red with lots of black, white and gray to even it out. Probably not easy to send, but we love to play board games or (slightly easier to ship) any cool playing cards. There are some cool POTCMC ones I saw with artwork on rather than photos of the cast. Also anything with concept art of anything Disney (movies, parks etc.) is fine by me. I like to read trivia for the animated movies and behind the scenes stuff. I seem to be saying cool a lot! So as you can see I'm cheap. If you send me Kool-Aid, a homemade CD and some junky niknaks you were going to throw out I'll be very happy. If I come up with more I'll be sure to come back!!!

Originally Posted By Kennesaw Tom OK, here's my wishlist. I have to agree with a few people here. I think homemade stuff was the best gifts I received last year from my Secret Pal. I really really would like a Disney calender for 2007. Hopefully a calender from one of the parks and especially DL. I have a wide intrest in music. How about putting together a group of song you like? I really enjoy Christmas things. So homemade ornaments would be great. You could just take some pinecones and spray paint them of something. Last year my evil Secret Pal sent me Rum balls that were toxically rummy. They were a BIG hit. Even a Disney cookbook or the LP cookbook might be a great big reveal gift. I'm sure I can think of other great Disney and LP things too. I oh course enjoy anything pertaining to monorails and trains. Everyone have a fun exciting Bash!!!
