The present you were given this Christmas

A cook robot.
My partner got up very very early because there will be a lot of people to get that robot. Much more cheaper than others.
He saw how a man were carrying two boxes with the robot and another man rushed into him. Wow! What I mess. They were arguing and fighting. Oh my god!

Anyway, he came home with the box and it’s awesome. From now on neither I nor him will have to piece garlic or anything else. The robot makes all for you. Only a matter of a little time to know how it works. My career as a chef is launching. 😀

I received some treats from my mom, including food and a gift card for Amazon.
I also received some Christmas cards from friends and family.
I also received some really cool Hawaiian soaps from a friend in Chicago.
I also received a plaque with an inspirational saying from a friend near Boston.

The most important gifts were...
-Another day of life.
-Friendships.
-Family (well, as good as family gets when we were all raised in abuse).
-My therapist! I will be forever grateful to her. I've been with my therapist the longest - for over 2 years now, going on 3. I've never survived past a year with any therapist in the past. This is a cool thing for me.
-Grit and perseverance to remain safe and isolated until this pandemic is gone.

Wow! Your post is marvellous. Very different to mine one. You bet for the most important. Non material things.
Isn’t it marvellous that you have so many people who recalled you and even one sent you especial meals.

I’m very happy for you. 😀

Yikes about the fighting over the robot!

I'm glad your partner was able to get the robot! Yay!

I hope your cooking and chef-level foods come out awesome!

I hadn’t heard of a cook robot before, it sounds intriguing, what sort of things are you making with it?

I like SprinkL3 suggestion of her favourite gifts too, as I get older those are the things that matter most to me too.

We don’t do so many gifts in close family these days, we have everything we need so we do some charity donations, and that’s nice, it takes the stress out of things too.

I got a nice scarf and cute plant from a friend, a cookbook, and some chocolate. Very grateful for all those things.

I got a Vans US mail hat
A pair of Vibes ear plugs
A red Fruit Of The Loom hoodie
A book
A set of 10 pound weights
Kohls, Amazon, and Starbucks gift cards
A bag of hot cocoa Hershey Kisses and a bag of gingerbread Kit Kats

I just bought Fruit of the Loom undies from Target. LOL. I had no idea they made a hoodie! That's cool!

Hu, this is my cook robot!
(See my attachment. It’s the only way I can stick things here)

Well, I’m sure you know about cook robot only that I think that I didn’t get the right expression. I’m referring to a kitchen robot.

By the way, it’s awesome you share your stuff with others. It’s so much better to give than receive. That’s for sure.

Very exciting! 😀 Lots of stuff!

Hoodie is a jumper with a cap hanging there, according to google. If I’m right, you can use the cap of USA mail and then put on the hat of the hoodie. It’s very fashionable. Very cool!

Hi, It's the first time I'm hearing about a Cook Robot! It sounds interesting. What task does it do? How is it different from other common robots? I would like to know more about it.

I don't usually get much, either a video game or something arty with my favourite brandy.

This year my bro splashed out on a Switch OLED for me, mainly cos his partner said they could buy it for me and split the cost as I always get them nice gifts too.


I got one game with it...Go Vacation ..similar to Mii sports resort but its got like 50 different sports in 4 different areas...snow, mountain, beach and city. I'm not really into sports but I enjoyed the dog sled game in snow resort as can unlock different breeds and name your dog!


I've actually unlocked quite a bit of the game and really enjoyed it!


Then I bought myself Stardew Valley with some xmas money from step mother and I'm really enjoying that too...so best presents I've had for years tbh!


Kind of glad I've got it as on news Nintendo have said there would be a shortage of Switch consoles this year due to difficulties with getting the chips or something. (bro had to pre-order to guarantee one for me) Not sure what availability is like in other countries.


Someone else my bro knew wanted a PS5 for their kids and was unable to find one anywhere in time for xmas, so seems its not only Nintendo that has that 'chip' problem.

I got this trip to India to see family. Unfortunately, I contracted Covid and am now stuck here

Tornado Brava Cucina - SKU 12033 | A3D

My husband bought me this. We both do a lot of cooking, however, I don't think I will let him use this. It's for me only. He broke two Oster stick blender/food processor combos. He didn't follow the instructions and let the motors rest every so often and the motors burnt out. This one seems to have a sturdier motor, but I still don't want to risk it.

So far I have made baba ganoush and guacamole.

that looks cool!

I got:
A Gryffindor (Harry Potter) leather journal with an elder wand pen
A scarf, hat, mitten set
A set of really nice soaps and lip balms
A pair of socks that say My Cat Doesn't Like You Either
a Bath and Body Works gift set, it has the In The Stars scented body cream, body spray, and body wash
A mini cast iron skillet Ghirardelli brownie kit, it came with an actual tiny skillet to bake the brownie in (pictured below)

I really like it so far. It does the job really quickly and is easy to clean. We roasted eggplant on the grill on Sunday, so I am going to make more baba ganoush today.

One of the things I received for Christmas was white tea and sage foaming hand soap. I love it so much I ordered two more!

What? It’s a normal kitchen robot. Many people have it. It’s one of these machines that mince, mix, cook all kind of food to produce dishes. Creams, soap, casserole, desserts. It’s a great help because once you know how it works you can not only make recipes from the book or internet, you can use their functions to cook meal as you use to make it according to your own like.
Not sure if it’s allowed here that’s why I don’t mention the name but there are different kitchen robots and there are all pretty good and similar. The prices are different however.

Sorry, forgot to reply to your question. I have not idea what’s the difference between this robots and others since this is the first I have ever.
I guess it’s like any other but for me it’s something new.

I don’t have any idea about Nintendo or games as such but I’m glad you can enjoy them.

A very good present!!!! The opportunity to go to visit your family and your country.

Do you know how long you will have to prolong your stay in India due to covid?

I laughed a lot with your post. Your husband is like my partner. He never read the instructions to use a stuff lol! Such lazy butts they are! lol

Hahaha! The socks with My cat doesn’t like you either are awesome.
And the brownie kit...I have no words. My favourite dessert is brownies. Oh my god! So delicious.

Took note, now that I’m becoming an expert in the kitchen. lol!

I remember I once used a sage shampoo and it was a pretty nice experience. It makes hair stronger and it was refreshing. 👍
