Whats up?
Went to my Dads today (WHY OH WHY OH WHY?) and mentioned my werther's vodka, to be told he hated things like that. Vodka should be left alone.
To which I jokingly said, ' Yes its to go with you Cheese and Pickles Hamper' (Which it was)
He actually laughed and said ' F!!! Off , Cheese and Pickle Hamper. If I want cheese and pickles I'll go and bl00dy buy some.'
I think he thought I was joking.
I just get so fed up sometimes. Everytime I try and do something different, nobody here wants to know.
I actually got in the car and cried.0 -

my OH wld be v v v glad to have a cheese and pickle hamper.
poor you.
after all that effort. I wld be tempted to just give him the hamper anyway as i reckon 1) everyone shld try some thing new and 2) when he actually sees what he gets he will realise all the thought you put in his present.
good luck0 -
ya know what.. i'd give it up with a message along the lines of 'made with love from our hearts' .... see if he is still scrooge.Totally debt free wohooo 2014

Oh dear.
Personally (and this is just me) I would give him the hamper anyway. A gift is a gift at the end of the day.Especially something that someone has put so much thought and time into.13 projects in 2013 0/130 -

I haven't really started it yet. I only have 3 jars of pickle and the vodka. It was a spur of the moment thing. I think so many of you are making them I thought I would too.
I don't have many people to buy for, and Christmas is such a quiet affair. I like to try and make the gift buying/making special. But as nobody else in my family is that way inclined, it never seems to work.:(0
