Food is always on my holiday wishlist. Gingerbread, cookies, breads, cakes, chocolates, and other holiday yummies. Everyone knows that's my preferred physical gift and I do buy it for myself.

I keep a curated wish list through the year to keep track of things for sales. Usually if I wait long enough, about half the list will be removed when I decide I don't *really* want them. Sometimes I will share with friends but usually I prefer not to, I'm old enough to buy my own things :)

Nothing fun on my list this year, a diaper bag, tea kettle, shower curtain, wellies, lol, I'm boring. I share my list if someone asks for it, and I usually don't buy things from my own list. Merry Christmas!

Our holiday lists (and the beginnings of a wedding registry for later in 2016...) include Goal Zero products for easy solar energy, a nice knife set (Chef knife, bread knife, and steak knives only), and gift cards for restaurants.

The only things that are on my wish list are what everyone should have on their wish list: The end of abject poverty, the end of hateful ignorance, and the end of cruelty to animals.

I would love a nice winter coat. I seem to be lacking a decent one this year...

Kelli

What I really want is the gift of good health since 2015 has been a rough year for me medically. On the slightly more tangible side I would like to travel more this year since I really enjoy that more than having stuff. If forced to choose material goods I could use a new wallet and some new towels for the household. At the holidays I'm usually more concerned with giving than receiving, and I like spoiling my pups.

I would love some new jewelry!

I have a short mental list of things I need, in case I find something in a thrift store or for a great price. But mostly that list gets whittled down as I realize I don't really need most things. For that reason, I'll hold off and not just go out and buy most things.
