Alma bought a can of Spam for this – which I thought was hilarious. Don’t get me wrong, I could have asked for anything, but I let her be frugal since we ended up with over 40 people on our Christmas list (!!) That’s a lot of presents – but fortunately there were five Wednesdays in December, so I had an extra payday to cover all this. It was also Alma’s first Christmas tree (that she actually owned – they had one in Hong Kong where she worked every year for the 16 years she was there). So that was good.
