COMMENT

Riese got in bed with me and we showered the universe with all of our gift ideas, our party thoughts, a tiny Christmas tree, and the socks my mother-in-law gave me for my birthday. ‘Twas a wonderful time had by all, and might even contain some tips for you as you scramble for gifts!

Boop.
