$25 gift card to Cold Stone Creamery, which is a place I haven't been to in at least ten years, and don't have any interest in visiting anytime soon. A total non-sequitur. I always appreciate the thought, though

Perhaps you should just be happy that your dog didn't have a more severe reaction to the chocolate covering the peanut butter. Sure, most dogs just throw up, and it doesn't bother them THAT much, but some dogs die.
It's time to appreciate the fact your dog DID throw up and you didn't come home to a dead dog.
Sheesh. More cheery damn it!
Now go scramble some eggs for your doggy and be happy (this is easier on his tummy then dog food for the next few days)
Yep, Chocolate + Dog = Very Bad Thing. You might be able to back me up but I think it's the theobromine in chocolate that is toxic to dogs.
The reason probably being something akin to the reality that to have a "worst" gift, you have to be doing pretty well overall. Or something like that. Most of us are pretty spoiled, comparatively speaking. I certainly am, at least.
So, um, I have a slightly different spin on the idea of the "worst gift" this year. I really do love all the gifts I received this year. I mean, honestly love not "Why, YES, of COURSE I love moldy brusselsprouts" kind of love.
So the "worst" gift this year, is the one that I feel the most guilty about receiving and is also, ironically, the gift I love the most.
It's this superbly, cuddly, plush, warm, soft blankie and I absolutely adore it. But it is ridiculously priced and I don't feel comfortable at all with the price tag. And truth be told, I get a bit nervous thinking about whom it's from. Yeah, I'm a bit odd at times.
I think your right.
My Golden Retriever shut himself in the back bedroom (where the computers are) and got into a tin of Quality Street.
Fortunately for him there's not much chocolate in most British "chocolate".

Even less down here - we have to pack it full of stuff to stop it melting...
Yup. I loved everything I got, and I think I'd feel like jerk to pick out less than useful gifts for any reason. Any gift given out of love is a gift I appreciated.

I didn't get anything I wanted, but nothing I didn't want. This year I had two White Elephants and received an over sized throw towel and Jinga set.
Of the 12 cousins that did the White Elephant, two people gave $20 Starbucks coffee cards. Talk about last minute lol.

Wait, you know what that means right?
As for worst gift... I can't name one. I think the lowest value one is a set of candles but I love candles still. Especially chocolate ones
well for me I liked all the gifts I got and like normal there are some that I would of rather of got something different or just useless to me.
For me this year the gift that is the lowest on my list was my new camelbak. Reason for this is because I already own 2 and this one is the same model as my smaller pack. I more than likely just going to use it for times where I can not decede if I want to take my main 100oz pack or going on a shorter ride with my smaller pack. Just leave the extra one in my car as a just in case.
