Mine is the 1987 Jenn-Air stove top I purchased for my husband from a Craig's List neighbor, to get the griddle attachment for pancakes, bacon, grilled tomato and cheese sandwiches, and everything fried. What I ended up with was the griddle, grill grates, heat element, and two burner inserts including a coil and a twin for my favorite set of solid core burners. Yes, I now have 4 solid core burners on my Jenn-Air range! Life is wonderful!

Originally, I looked to buy a new griddle but Mimi's encouragement to find the cookie press on eBay led me to the Jenn-Air bidding there and then to the local (and semi-local) Craig's List. The gift is a 2-for - the griddle for hubby and the solid core burners for me! Colleen

I have two faves, eldest grandie made a small bead bracelet she immediately put on my arm....

it is still in one piece on my wrist and so beautifully made....

and the "fan/hat" the other grandie searched for.
"It is for you to wear in the garden Nana...I looked for the best pattern on the fabric, don't you also just love it too?"

It is in a garish orange paisely, but her love to me came through in the giving, I will certainly wear it in the garden.

 
Silly though it may seem... the Lexus of travel mugs!

After reading reviews, I told hubby and daughter I wanted the Nissan Ultimate Travel Tumbler... well, now I have TWO! It is by far and away the best travel mug I've ever used.

 
Got a Wii for my son, but we all have been having so much fun with it!!

It's such fun, and since it's an interactive game, it gets you off the couch!

Love it!

 
Lol, there was a report on news this morning about muscle and joint aches and pains people

are getting from using this.

 
I got DH one as an early gift (in October) and it's the first exercise he's gotten in YEARS!

The arcade game is lots of fun. There was a news report about how they are using them in old folks homes to get them moving smileys/smile.gif

 
It's a video game thing with a wireless remote, kinda like a virtual reality thing...

It came with a sport game package - bowling, tennis, golf, baseball, boxing. You hold the remote, and swing it like a bat, or a golf club and it somehow records those actions.

Boxing is the toughest one - you can work up a sweat if you keep up at it long enough!

My arms are aching, but it's so much fun!
