Hi Anna,

LOL regarding the skinny jeans. You gotta get the ones that stretch (those are the ones I wear, ha!). 😉
What did you guys have for Christmas lunch?
Karen says
Hi Ellery,
I hope you have a Merry Christmas, too, m’dear! 🙂
What are you doing for the holiday?
Karen says
Hi Wehkwas,
OoOo… which peel did you get? My forehead is breaking out and I think I might need one.
Karen says
Hi Vampy Varnish,
That’s one of my favorite cameras. You’ll love it!

Merry Christmas and happy holidays!
I got everything I wanted in that my family is here, safe, and no one is too horribly affected by the economy. But besides that, my sisters and I pulled in a seriously good haul this year 🙂

Merry Christmas to you and yours, Karen! I hope your Christmas is going great. Thank you for your wonderful blog and daily updates. 😀 My Christmas is going wonderfully this year and I’m quite excited about it! Eat lots of cookies for me. 🙂 (I’ll be doing the same :D)
Sleepy says
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! I’m going to SF for a week. WOOHOO!
Daya says
Merry Christmas Karen and family! 🙂
Yes, I did what I wanted for Christmas. My family and I are fully blessed (my husband actually bought me makeup! :)). He is generally not good at that kind of thing!
Dao says
Merry Christmas to you, your husband, and Tabby Bear! Wishing you all the best during this holiday season.

Merry Christams Karen. I hope you are having a wonderful day. Don’t pig out on too many Christmas cookies [like me :P]
Karen says
Hi Beth,
Merry Christmas to you, too! Have a wonderful day — I hope it’s full of fun!
Karen says
Hi Lucky,
NICE! Are you and your sisters close in age?
Karen says
Hi Gio,
Merry Christmas to you and your family, too! Have fun eating and relaxing today with them. 🙂
Karen says
Hi Madeleine,
Oh wow! I’ve never had a white Christmas before. I hope you and your family are nice and cosy and that you’re having a great day!
Karen says
Hi Elena,
LOL, I ate enough bunch of oatmeal crisp cookies for the both of us this morning! I’ll be sure to gobble down a few more before the day’s end. I won’t let ya down!
Karen says
Hi Sleepy,
How exciting! Are you going for fun or for work?
Karen says
Hi Daya,
You lucky girl, that’s so sweet of him!
Merry Christmas!
Karen says
Hi Dao,
Merry Christmas to you, too! I hope you’re enjoying your day.
Karen says
Hi Stephie,
LOL, too late for that! What did you end up eating? I went a little crazy with the oatmeal crisps, yikes.
Sleepy says
Fun. Yay! My friend and I have signed up for the Alcatraz night tour and will be doing some wine tasting in Napa Valley too.
Tiera says
Hi Karen! Hope you’re having a Merry Christmas! I came over to your side of the Ko`olau again today, had to visit and drop some flowers for our lost loved ones at Hawaiian Memorial and Valley of the Temples… then we went to Safeway in Kane`ohe… what a nightmare! We stood in the express line for like 30 minutes! That’s what we get for trying to shop on Christmas!
Anyhow, I got an iPhone today from my mommy and daddy, so I couldn’t be happier! And of course my auntys knew, so I also got a bunch of iTunes gift cards… I can’t wait to load it up with new songs and apps!
What did you get for Christmas?
Shefali says
Hey Karen!! Merry Christmas to you, Tabs, El Hubs and the rest of your family.
I got everything I wanted…and even stuff that I knew I wanted but hadn’t told anyone. I think my crowning gifts were the Garmin Nuvi 780 Navigation system and my new T3 Featherweight hair dryer. I also got the NARS gloss duo set Nordstrom was selling, plus a really pretty necklace, a book, and a Viva La Juicy perfume set. I’m stoked.
The greatest gift though was that my parents, bro and his wife and daughter (my niece) came over and opened gifts with me, hubs, and my son. We had brunch, opened gifts, and hung out. There was absolutely zero drama…just fun and the joy of being together. I couldn’t have asked for anything more.
Hope you got all that you wanted. Also hope your MIL is doing well.
Karen says
Hi Sleepy,
LOL, I grew up in the Bay Area and I’ve never been to Alcatraz. You’ve got to tell me if it’s fun!
San Francisco is my *favorite* city. I miss living there!
Karen says
Hi Tiera,
We went to the Longs last night and we spent the same amount of time in line!
The iPhone is so much fun. You gotta get a screen protector and a skin, though. There are some cute ones at the Apple store!
For Christmas we kept it low key… some clothes and jewelry, a gift card for Lululemon… I’m excited about wearing workout clothes with no holes, LOL.
Did you have fun at the game last night?
Karen says
Hi Shefali,
That’s so wonderful. I’m glad to hear that you had such a good time (and that it was drama free!) with your family. 🙂
Oh, have you taken your T3 for a spin! You’ll love it!
Miss QQ says
Hi Karen. Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year to you!
nai says
mele kalikimaka to you and your ohana, karen!

Tekoa says
Merry Christmas!
Santa brought me a wonderful gift in the form of my parent’s cat. She greeted me this morning with a soft “Mrrreww.”
Tavia says
This was a wonderful Christmas….Santa brought me an unexpected gift. I received a cream with caviar from La prairie, i heard they are really good, now i only must try it and see the results and after i will write a review.

I got MAC in my stocking and Bliss stuff from my husband! I also got two riotously happy sons! An excellent Christmas indeed!
Hope everyone else’s was wonderful as well! Happy Boxing Day! 🙂
Stephie says
Oh my goodness. Oatmeal cripies sound good to. Well not to mention the cookies I made and ended up munching on, anything with those little green and red coarse sugar sprinkles really gets me. I love how crunchy they are when you eat em’. haha.
cloudburst says
I got much, much more than I expected this year – a pair of heels (picked out by me) from the boyfriend, a Tiffany lock necklace (a gift to myself – does that count?, and a SLR digital camera from my Dad!!!!!!! It was a surprise gift & I couldn’t be more happy!
