Gift Giving

Christmas came early in our little apartment this year.  J and I are having a small holiday party next week, and I believe our conversation went  a little something like this:

J: Well, we won't have enough wine glasses.
Me: Well, would you like to open your Christmas presents early?
J: Really?
Me: Really!
J: Then you can open yours.
Me: Really?
J: Really!
{We both open in unison}
J and Me: THANK YOU!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

It was pretty perfect if you ask me.  So what's the big secret for gift giving? LISTEN.  Several months ago J mentioned that she wanted stemless wine glasses.  I got these last year from my wonderful Aunt B and loved them so much I knew I had to get J some too.  So now you know what were in these wrapped presents.  Good thing I wrapped them early.  These can make a perfect gift for a sister, mom, roommate, or girlfriend as well.


I am by no means a wine connoisseur.  In fact, I'm one of those girls who only drinks overly sweet white wine.  And I understand the lack of a stem in these glasses makes swirling more of a challenge.  But do I ever do that? No.  So I love these glasses.

Pros:
dishwasher safe
easy to store
chic look
great for serving other beverages

Do you have any stemless wine glasses?  What are your thoughts on them?
