Okay, fav received? A coffee cup that my hubby bought when he was really sick from chemo. It took all his energy to walk into the store, wait in line and walk back to the car. It's my fav gift rec simply because I know what a big deal it was at the time. And I like the picture on the mug, too--a bunch (herd?) of cows.
Fav given? That's trickier. I guess when I bought the plane ticket for my mom to visit her sister in Iowa. I just remember her reaction--tears and everything.

For me the favorite gift given was easier, I remember making a nativity set for my mom when I was in Jr. High, hid downstairs to make the pieces then carted them to school to be fired. It was big and sorta clumsy, but I think she liked it. Took a long time to make. Recieved...probably the pearl necklace from my hubby 'cause he was so happy to give it.

Received: it's a tie between the Food Network Kitchen toys and the Scooby Doo Jack in the Box... I wrote that last part just to suck up... Given: another ties; a box of books about Saints and tickets to Godspell.
