I did not really like Christmas for a lot of years because my mom is Mrs. Christmas but have come to really enjoy the commercial side more each year since having kids. I love quirky ornaments as we have a ecclectic tree so if you see an obscure or odd ornament, I am all about it. I also (before kids) had a tree of only penguins. I collect penguins of all kinds, shapes and such. I also collect gingerbread men and have started decorating the inside at the holidays with that. My husband starts decorating in November so if you see any cool decorations for inside and out, they too are good. I like candles but don't need anymore, I have a complete inventory of my own. I love baths so bubble bath is always needed at my house. I like fresh scents like ocean. Actually for bubble bath, I like fruity more than flower. Lotions are good too. I like Starbucks and books so gift cards are great. I like all kinds of books, with suspense thrillers being the most I read. I am just getting into scrapbooking and have very few supplies so any additional matierials are great. Never can have too much I am finding of that type of stuff. I decorate cakes and it is turning into a monster of its own that started with my kids but now the neighbors, friends and relatives all want specialty cakes but never know what kind so any sort of idea books, pictures or anything of that such is appreciated. Again, you can never have too much of that either. I am a picture person so if I see something, I can usually recreate it. Cards, emails and fun games are always good. I wear very little jewelry except my wedding ring and earrings. I had a watch but the battery died so I have now forgone that too. I love cats. I love antenna balls but I don't have an antenna on my car anymore so I have no where to put them. I also like pens of any kind. Usually I buy pens on vacations rather than coffee mugs or anything like that. Speaking of mugs, I don't drink coffee at home and have plenty of mugs. I don't have a disney collection of anything specific so anything to remind me of there is great. I am a Yankees fan due to being married to a New Yorker so over the years I have come to love them. I like milk chocolate. My favorite candy is Peanut Butter Twix. (I don't really like peanut butter unless it is in candy) and anything with caramel is to die for. I love homemade caramels(or anything caramel). I like Salt Water Taffy especially cinnamon and grape. I like pretty much anything that is lime or grape flavor and the 2 together is the best (not that I have found candy like that but Sonic has limeades that you add grape flavor to and I am set). I don't really like coconut candy. I like all kinds of nuts and if you find any cinnamon roasted almonds, that is a hit with me as I worked for a company that did that for 5 years. I like cinnamon anything. Raisins are the worst thing in the world. I love games and especially card games. I play cribbage and pinochle regularly both on line and at home with my kids. Anything homemade is great. I love that someone takes time just for me! I have a recipe book that my mom made for me a few years ago with family recipes from boths sides of my family and my inlaws and could always use more. If you have a special recipe, that would be good and make sure you include the history behind it because that is the best part. Music: I am all over the place with this but I am looking The Big Prize by Honeymoon Suite. My favorite stores are Target, Walmart, Borders. My favorite restaurants are El Pollo Loco, Jack in the Box, Qdoba, Outback and Marie Callendars. Ecards, online games and funny websites are a hit with me too. I love all the online games that are easy and mindless (and even the ones are difficult too). A note in the mail or a note in email brings smiles to my face too. Just a quick hello brightens my day. I hope that this is helpful to you. I found last year that more was easier than less. I look forward to meeting you soon.

I like attention so as long as I get that I am pretty happy. If you feel compelled to buy me something here are a few ideas. I am a Scooby-Doo collector. I have a lot of Scooby stuff but I am always on the lookout for more. I love the tins that you can buy, even though I usually throw away the yucky marshmellow candy that is usually in them. I love all things Scooby. I am stealing this from I57/Tiggirl: I would love some attraction posters from Disneyland. I have always wanted some. My favorite attractions from this standpoint would be Matterhorn, Haunted Mansion, and Potc. I love food. Chocolate is very welcome in my house. The only things I really don't like food-wise are licorice, candy-corn, and marshmellows. Or onions and greeen peppers for that matter. Or coconut flavored things. From the LP Store I am often drooling over the cds. I would love a homemade mixed cd if you, my pal, have that ability. I also drool over any of the NBC stuff I see in the LP store. Also Stitch stuff. Thanks to Ursula I have develped an interest in all things SHAG. I love that stuff, and I love just vintage Disneyland stuff. I can't think of anything else, but once again I do want to stress that I am happy with a little attention and fun. Don't stress about having me as your pal, whoever you are!
Originally Posted By sherrytodd Well, if it has anything to do with the parks, I don't care if it's a role of Tomorrowland toilet paper, I will LOVE it. I love finding videos and soundclips from the parks. I just finished remodeling my kitchen and would love little kitchen things. My bedroom theme has turned into Adventureland and anything remotely along those lines would make my day. I also love ocean things, especially seashells. I love homemade cd's and like just about all music (except for The Christmas Shoes ). I like to cook and like to get new recipes. I like to read, and my tastes tend to trend towards Stephen King and the like (or Disney travel guides). We are planning a trip to WDW and the Virgin Islands in May and any fun websites would be great. I LOVE cute Christmas stuff, the kitschier the better. I enjoy gardening and like little things to put in the garden. Yes, I would be the person who would be ecstatic to have a garden gnome or a flamingo. Of course my favorite plant in my garden is my Disneyland rose. Really love the outdoors and spend a lot of time telemark skiing. Calvin is my kitty and he would definately love a Christmas treat. He loves little toy mousies. My 9 year old son Brendan had as much fun as me opening my bash goodies last year, and a little something for him would absolutely make his day.
Originally Posted By Labuda Ok, here we go: music - any music at all that you may think I'd try - send me a link to the website of your favoirte band or make me a super cool mix cd like the one I got previously during the LPWB. Books are always welcome, if you can find 'em cheap! As for Disney - I am wayy into the parks, and love things like magnets and knick knacks I have all over my desk at Dell. My favorite rides are the Splash Mountain at WDW and Mission: Space, and the DL version of Pirates, though I love anything Johnny Depp, so I always ride the WDW one when I'm there. This year I have a WDW AP, but plan to have a DLR one next year so I can visit the original more AND see the new subs and other things that have changed between the 50th and then. Plus, my in-laws live near DLR, so I'm going to drag my husband out with me next December so we can see his parents. Anything at all Disney-park related is welcome in case you didn't figure that out yet. hehe Oh, I collect snowglobes, but deifnitely don't expect my pal to get me one, even a small one! Favorite Disney films are: Nightmare Before Christmas, and anything with Mickey in it. Favorite characters: MICKEY, Jack Skellington, and Zero. That's another reason I'm going to DL next year during the holidays - I want to see HMH again! Saw it the first year and can't wait to go back! Ok, back to wish-listy type stuff. I love hot chocolate, won't kiss my husband if he's had coffee and not brushed his teeth or eaten yet, am not otherwise a big chocolate fan, love trying new perfumes (i.e, the little freebie samples you can get sometimes), but usually wear Coco Chanel (which is way expensive, so don't you DARE buy it for me!). I just recently got contacts to wear when out and about on the weekends, so am looking for the perfect eye shadow to go with my blue eyes. heh Christmas cookies and candies and whatnot are always welcome, as my hsuband is a vacuum cleaner when it comes to sweets if I don't like 'em, and even sometimes when I DO (like the yummy chocolates that Pirate Brittany sent me last year! hehe) Basically, anything that I get from a pal I will treasure! Oh, and I collect antenna balls - Lisann22 can vouch for that, as my first year int eh bash, I asked for something to put antenna balls on, and she MADE me a TOTALLY COOL Mickey-shaped antenna ball holder. Oh, and I have a Mr. Potato Head with most of the Disney accessories (including the infamous coonskin cap that has quite the interesting picture int he LP store). OPh, and stuff iek stickers are cool, too - I have two 20" widescreen LCDs I use at work, and I am trying to cover the frame with Disney stickers, but it's slow-going so far! hehe\ Ok, that's enough for now, I hope! Oh, wait - I don't scrapbook. Ok, NOW that's enough for now!
Originally Posted By u k fan ^^^ andice I have your wish list from last year saved somewhere! Let's start with Disney. My favorite characters are Mickey and Clopin. My favorite movies are Hunchback, Treasure Planet, Fantasia 2000, Sleeping Beauty, Mulan and Lilo and Stitch. Anything that includes them is fine. I also like Nightmare Before Christmas. I am trying to create a Disney timeline and I need items from the rarer films, Black Cauldron, Basil etc. or from live action movies that were of significance. Anything will do and it doesn't have to be from the original release. A toy or poster or pin or anything is fine. In some ways the smaller the better. I collect Disney mugs and glasses and cheap pieces of plastic junk. I have a shrine to Mickey. I'm seriously trying to limit my plush collection. I have way too much for a 29 year old man. I love hallowe'en especially pumpkins. I'm more than happy to accept markdown hallowe'en items. I love christmas especially christmas music, snowmen and candy canes/gingerbread men. I am happy to accept US candy, but not too much as I don't really have a sweet tooth. Anything with peanut butter or grape flavor is great. I will expect copious amounts of Kool-Aid as it is the drink of the Gods and is nearly impossible in the UK. I'll happily take the 10c kind! The knobbly Chee-tos arew another personal favorite that I can't get and also bean dip. Also any christmas themed disposable tableware as it's much cooler in the US. I will accept any clothing with Mickey on. I tend to wear grays and blues and my shirt size is XXL. I think I've mentioned my love for Muppets. Anything muppety is great! I like Scooter. And Kermit... Also anything Fraggle Rock related would be cool! I'd love the new CD, but I think someone may be getting that for me already. I would love a homemade CD. I'll listen to most things once. Anything related to singing would be good. I love homemade gifts. Many an evening has been spent by me making bash gifts so don't worry about that. One of Candice's gifts last year took about 12 hours to make! I love niknaks. I will gladly take any junk that you don't want to add to my collection of slightly broken and dated clutter. I have a small collection of frogs (must be a kermit thing!) and also I love mice. I have a collection of little china mice poking out of things like hats and wells. I have no clue where they come from, but if you could find more that would be cool. Things to brighten up my desk would be cool. There are some great Disney books I've never read. I'd like to read those books with the magnifying glass on the front, I can't remember the name. I need book 5 onwards of the Jack Sparrow books. I'm behind on Tales from the Laughing Place. The last edition I have is the Donald cover. I've read upto part 4 of the season 8 Buffy comics and would love more. My nephew collects Disney pins themed around space so they would be cool. That's a huge list! I'm not going to read it back as it's nearly 2 in the morning here. Apologies for any spelling/typing mistakes!!!

Originally Posted By smeeeko Goodmorning.. Dear Seekret Bash Pal, Thank you so much in advance for being our Pal this year! You don't need to worry about us, we're in it for the fun and to get into the season. Things we like for the most part are pretty easy. We like music, getting mail (postcards! I love getting postcards) and chocolate. Also our cats.. treats for our furkids are always nice. =) Also toys for the cats or a bag of catnip. (not sure if mailing catnip is legal) =) Sean & I have a pretty big collection of Disney films and CDs, there's really nothing we need from there.. nor mugs as we have too many (and yet we still find ourselves bringing them home from trips!) We listen to Musicals, SF Giants baseball and some of the U-Pop on Sean's XM when he gets it. (Sean rents a lot of cars!) We live in a small loft so space is kind of a premium, so things for us would be small, and useful, fun, as well as possibly edible. =) MUSIC: We love mix cds.. so if you have some favorite band that you think we'd like or some of your favorite Disney tunes you want to share your personal playlist (even in title you don't have to SEND any.. just list your TOP 10 or 20.. fave Disney songs and we probably already have them and can play them in Win Amp or iTunes when getting into the BASH spirit!) POSTCARDS etc.. DO you have some interesting place or things in postcard form, or photos you can send anonymously to share with us.. that would be cool. We love receiving postcards. =) CHOCOLATE: SeanYoda especially likes premium DARK chocolate like ScharfenBerger but if you have something interesting in your area you think he might enjoy.. go for it. Me, I like milk chocolate. My fave chocolate is Dove promises and Reese's PB cups and Reese's Pieces as well as Mocha ScharfenBerger nibby bars or something like that. I *DO* like coconut so if you have any Coconut Mickeys or BOUNTY bars (almond joys) that the Trick R Treaters didn't want, feel free to send em our way.. LOL COFFEE: SeanYoda loves his coffee, and I love pumpkin spiced lattes (ok so does sean!) So a Starbucks or Peets giftcard is always nice DISNEY: Our fave characters are: Stitch, Jiminy Cricket, Beauty and the Beast, Timon & Pumbaa, Bowler Hat Guy from Meet the Robinsons, any PIXAR characters (but I personally have a soft spot for "Red" from Cars) as well as Chip N Dale. We love Stitch in Star Wars costume (but don't have any.. he's dressed up like the Emporor Palpatine). MOVIES and STUFF: We both love Star Wars, Star Trek, B5 (Babylon 5) we *heart* Alton Brown and are trying to collect all the TARGET EXCLUSIVE Alton Brown Good Eats 1-8.. the only ones we do NOT have are VOL 6 and VOL 7. Can't seem to find them anywhere these days. Maybe with the holidays coming up they'll bring them back? BOOKS: We love to read! Maybe you have a title to suggest of one of YOUR favorite titles. We like mysteries, California History, baseball, books on Disney (although SeanYoda seems to have a LOT of them) I've been working on logging the books in our collection off & on here: <a href="http://www.librarything.com/profile/therouses" target="_blank">http://www.librarything.com/pr ofile/therouses</a> We like perusing the library as well used bookstores, the Bargain section of the bookstores, but we do a lot of shopping online at Amazon.com too. =) So yeah, a e-certificate is ALWAYS appreciated, as is a used book that you think we might like. =) Hopefully this is a pretty good start, and if not.. I will have to *poke* SeanYoda to help me out a little more. DESK THINGS: love notecards, Disney scrapping stickers, (although I'm not very good at scrapbooking, I have several starters and refill kits, mostly from DLR but not from WDW) I've been told I can't buy anymore. *pout* If you can give some links to "scrapbooking disney trips for dummies" or just starter tips that would be great! Gel pens or Disney pens would be nice but not necessary. =) PLEASE NO: We would never be ungrateful if you did get us something on the following list, however: -NO CANDLES as we can not burn them with Alexander our cat as he's too curious. I like candles but the only one we keep out is a small one my best friend gave me from Illuminations and I never light it (it's got a glass lid). -NO STINKY STUFF Whatever reason SeanYoda doesn't like perfumes etc, so I stopped wearing it years ago. OTH if you want to send some kind of non-scented room spray or plug-in (lavender would be nice) non-aerosol or have suggestions that would be great! -NO MUGS or t-shirts we have too many! -We don't buy pins very often and trying to trade our duplicates out when we can. It's just too expensive and take up space. Sincereley, S&P I went over our list and hopefully it's not too long or too short. SeanYoda had to go to a client site so I think if anything is missing he can add it at that point.. I think we have PLENTY on here for starts!

Originally Posted By ilvdland Alright, sorry for the delay, but here's my list..... First of all, I have a weird obsession with the mail - I don't know what it is, but I love random stuff coming to my house. My obsession is so bad when I go on vacations I would never DREAM of putting a vacation hold on my mail. The thought of all of my precious junk mail sitting in the post office waiting for me to pick it up would make me crazy. That being said, I love receiving stuff. ANYTHING!!! I do celebrate Christmas, even though I don't ever have a tree. Well, I have a fiber-optic one that sits on top of my tv, but not one that can have ornaments on it. However I love ornaments that can sit on their own, like the kind that don't have to be hung. Disney themed of course are always a plus!! I am a Disneyland-aholic, as I try to go once a month. I can never have too many pens from DL, it's one of the only things I have to buy from there everytime I go. I love coffee!!!!!!I am the freak walking around DL in 90 degree weather with a coffee in my hand. All kinds of coffee is great, especially if you have some special local coffee that I perhaps haven't tried. Oh, and just a heads up, and I know I may get blasted for this, but no Starbucks. My body does not like Starbucks, so therefore I do not like Starbucks. It doesn't matter what I get from there, it makes me sick. But everyplace else is okay!! I am not a candle person AT ALL. Every candle type-thing I have is used for something else. I have this fear of burning my house down, so no flames in my house. I listen to mostly R&B/Hip-Hop/Rap with the occasional Broadway soundtrack thrown in. I have almost NO new stuff, which is odd. I can't even tell you what I would want, as I don't know who is singing half the stuff anyway, because, well, I'm old and can't seem to accept it. I love e-cards, games, and fun stuff on the web. I also have an unhealthy obsession with Bath and Body Works Cherry Blossom. Not the Japanese or the White, just the plain ole' pink Cherry Blossom. If they make something, anything in that scent I will love it. Well, except the candle of course . I basically love anything my bash pal will give me, if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask!!! Thanks in advance Bash Pal!!!

Doesn't have to be during the bash, either My favorite colors are blue and purple. Smelly candles are great if they smell like food and not flowers. Teeny free samples of cologne are fun - I like the lighter scents. Even the magazine paper samples are good; I'm trying out new things. I LOVE receiving snail mail. Any kind of card or postcard. Ecards are also great. Also jokes - my repertoire is very very small! Make me laugh!!!!!!! I'm diabetic, so candy probably isn't a good idea. Although I wouldn't hate you if it happened to be a dove dark chocolate candy bar. I love those little stretchy winter gloves - you know, the kind that look like they would fit a Barbie, but stretch to fit a real live human being. I also have a disney charm bracelet - the kind with little charms that dangle on a spring ring clasp. Any kind of mickey or pluto would be my faves, but I like tinkerbell and donald, too. Please no more collectibles or pins - I'm downsizing and have had to make hard decisions already about what I can keep. Maybe a website address on how to downsize ;-) Anything handmade or handwritten will be loved and saved. Well, can't think of anything else. I'll love anything that you do, and I don't expect something everyday or even every other day. thanks - we're going to have so much fun!!

Likes: (the following are not necessarily requests for dvd, it is purely up to you if you would like, but mostly these are just interests I'm mentioning in case you happen to run across something "of" them like an item, puzzle, quiz, fun stuff, etc. ) Shows - Seinfeld, Simpsons, Just Shoot Me, Fresh Prince. (Have Seinfeld Season 7 on dvd!) Disney movies - The Lion King and Oliver & Company are my two favorites - but the Lion King tops them all on my list (own soundtracks to both films!) Sports - Brooklyn Dodgers of Los Angeles (lol jk - it's really the Los Angeles Dodgers), and the Dallas Cowboys. Colors - Blue (light blue, Dodger blue, dark blue is ok)
Originally Posted By DJ7K Hello Secret Pal!

The F-Series, especially the new models that have been out since late 2003, the Harley-Davidson Editions, the new Saleen Thunder. * Love their luxury brand Lincoln as well. The Lincoln Mark LT I like - lol as an outsider of course so far, never been in one or driven one. *** My "already haves" from that interest list: A Mustang shirt, white Ford trucks hat (baseball cap or bb cap). I have some "stuff" Jaguar and Lincoln sent me few years ago when I signed up just to receive info and updates on their products for the heck of it. But more of that could never hurt! I also love waterscapes. Not necessarily anything tangeble, but if anything online to look at or use on the computer desktop - I may not be able to use it for awhile though Thinking about possibly sending an edible gift? Heres my list of preferences Sweets and snacks - As far as chocolate treats go: Anything with peanut butter, mint, caramel, all those are plenty acceptable. Example, ones like the California Brittle or California Crunch at See's. Jellybelly's are a fave - except liquorice. LoL this is probably going to get unhealthy real quick so maybe I'll list favorite restaurants later Ok I'll add *one* more here. Little fruit snacks. Not roll ups, but like the little shapes. I have some Sunkist ones in the pantry. Love the Disney ones too. Don't like chocolate with nuts in them unless it's peanuts, but accompanied with other good stuff. Nuts alone I'm not partial to. Fruit chocolate treats I'm not partial to either. White chocolate I don't like.
