"The little something I bought myself this year was the best gift I received. My husband’s tradition was to order the Neiman Marcus little enameled box of chocolates each year. This year it’s a beautiful red butterfly box, and this year I ordered it for myself. It’s so very special because my wonderful, thoughtful, loving husband passed away this year, and I will keep his tradition each Christmas to come."

"The little something I bought myself is Tricia Yearwood’s new cookbook, 'Georgia Cooking for an Oklahoma Kitchen.' I love to cook, and I have glanced through her book. There are some fantastic “Southern” recipes in there! I’ll add it to my large collection of cookbooks!"

"New bras! I wanted something comfortable AND affordable (like no underwire)!"

" bought myself a new outfit for Christmas Day. A nice new top, a nice pair of jeans topped with a nice little jacket to wear indoors. I get to do Christmas three to four times with our family — it’s a big family — so I like to be comfy!"
