We didn’t buy things to put under the tree. We got each other a trip to Paris for Christmas.
Ooh, Ooh!!! That's right Silversage ... pictures? stories? PLEASE? Maybe in a separate thread?

This is what we did, although our destination is New Orleans instead of Paris. I would love to go to Paris with DH but my health won't allow that kind of travel.We didn’t buy things to put under the tree. We got each other a trip to Paris for Christmas.

Thanks for the suggestion! I remember her - she was a lot of fun. I'm glad to hear that her restaurant is still doing well.If you are going to NOLA, be sure to stop in at Red Gravy. Vera Blue (Roseann), who used to be a member here (and other places) opened an Italian restaurant in New Orleans about 10 years ago. During the pandemic, she moved it from the Central Business District to Magazine St. I've eaten there a few times and it's outstanding! She gets extremely high ratings both in the local press and on sites like TripAdvisor. The brunch is always rated one of the best in NOLA.
If you go, tell her I said 'Hi'.
Just returned Sunh ill Oregon, where we spent Christmas with my DDIL's parents, siblings, and their children. It was a lot of fun for everyone. For gifts, I gave my DIL, and son my three custom built fly rods, that I made, complete with quality reels, fly line. backing, the works. I received a whole Christmas stocking full of new fly tying materials, some very nice, and useful clothes, and an Anova Sous Vide kit, complete with water tank. I didn't have my laptop with me, and so couldn't respond to the threads, as I don't have the password to put into my cell phone app for DC.
I'm looking forward to trying out the new Anova machine. I'm thinking a chuck roast, or maybe beef brisket for my first foray into sous vide, or maybe a roulade made from round steak, and stuffed with savory bread dressing.
It's god to be back home again.
