Dear Santa

Dear Santa,
How are you and the Mrs.?

I've been mostly good this year and having been enjoying everything you gave me last year. Since you were so generous in '08, I've decided to expand my list a little this year.

First on my list is a house. Look at how cute this little guy is! Doesn't it just look perfect for me? I can just imagine the charming hardwood floors, all the detailed woodwork inside, and adorable gardens in the back! I would be good ALL year next year if I found this under the christmas tree.

The lovely pieces above would help me furnish my new house or would be the perfect start to a collection in the future.

And of course the more practical items on my list:

1. KitchenAid Mixer in Martha Stewart Blue

2. White serving trays (I've spotted some lovelies from Target, CB2, or Crate & Barrel)

3. A drill for all my drilling needs (not that I have many right now, but it just seems like so much fun and useful in the future)

4. Folding worktable, very useful in the current time for all my crafting and party needs

5. Chi straight iron, to make my hair even more fab

6. Gardening shears. Again, to make my hair even more fab...

Some other items on my list would be a chunky silver hand-forged ring from one of many etsy sellers, Gap Close perfume, a Garmin because I'm always getting lost, a screen-printing kit or other crafty supplies, and an FM transmitter for my iPod. (Those weren't nearly as cool to illustrate)

Thanks Santa. I hope all is well with you in the north pole. I'll set out some carrots for Rudolph and look forward to a variety of cookies under the tree for yourself.

With love,

Stephanie
