  4. This year I am finished buying for everyone, inlcuding the Christmas Operation children in Africa, two angel tree children (boy and girl), tons of food for two food drives and of course presents for my son. My husband and I dont have much money left over after that, so it would be nice to have some spending money for each other!

Hmmmm, easy-peasy...I'd spend it all on my beautiful granddaughter, Carlene! She's 2 and the apple of my eye! Well, that's not entirely true, I have two apples..my own daughter, Rana and and my sweet baby granddaughter Carlene. I call her Munchie. I think that God gave me a second chance to live out my 'little girl' dreams as my sweet Rana has Autism and doesn't quite get all the fancy, smanchy, prissy things that I've always wanted to do with her and that's ok too but still.. oh dang, anyway I'd spend it all on my two girls and I might get my ...ha! who am I trying to fool? I'd spend it all on my girls :-)!
    Thanks so much!

  54. If I were being rational I'd use the $$ towards paying off our hospital bills so that we have one less thing to worry about. Our baby is going to be the BEST Christmas present ever... but she sure is going to cost a lot, ha ha!
    But I'd also like to buy a rifle my husband has been wanting so that he can go hunting and stuff. He's just been so amazing and deserves a special gift that we wouldn't normally buy!

  60. I just found your blog today! I would use the 400$ in part to help my niece who has been having issues with gluten making her very ill stock her kitchen with various flours and products she can use to make gluten free meals for her and her family. I just sent her a pasta recipe of yours I think she will be pleased with and told her to just substitute the pasta with her gluten free pasta , she has been overwhelmed with trying to figure out what to eat. She has had issues and with her digestion for a long time and spent a lot of $$$$ this past year on testing and medical bills and has had issues with food allergies since she was a child so this is not a ' fad ' for her. So thank you for the opportunity .
