TIP TUESDAY#7 - What was your favorite girlfriend gift this holiday?

First my holiday confession. We got a new puppy (Brando) on the 22nd so all I want to do is play and snuggle with him. So forgive me that this is TIP TUESDAY is on a Thursday!


My creative girlfriends are great at giving advice, helping me through life and also in giving me perfect presents. I like to think of the Girlfriendology visitors as girlfriends too so thanks to all of you for the GIFT of your friendship (to me or to your girlfriends).

Girlfriends ARE gifts, so we'd like to hear from you for this week's TIP TUESDAY question:

What is your favorite gift you received from a girlfriend this holiday?

I love hearing others' comments so that I can improve my gift giving skills - so
please add a comment - we want to hear from you!

I'll start ... My creative friend Jill gave me a meaningful book for creative women (so I know I'll love it and I'm sure it is appropriate for you and your creative girlfriends!). Terri, my always thoughtful and very creative girlfriend, gave me some "olives" (that are really chocolate covered almonds, since she knows I don't like olives but I do like chocolate and almonds!) as well as Eat Pray Love, another book I've heard about and need to read. Designer, pillow maker and fellow entrepreneur, Tina gave me a beautiful pair of earrings her sister makes to replace the ones I bought previously that I lost one of - how sweet was that! (Other girlfriends gave great gifts too - THANKS to all of you - especially for the GIFT of your friendship!)

What do all these gifts have in common? They were specifically selected for ME! Did your girlfriends do a great job of finding gifts that were perfect for YOU? Share your COMMENTS and help us all be better girlfriend gift givers!
