So could you two please plan to vote the same way? ;-)

Never mind, looks like it is a tie now! Sari and Wendy are the deciding votes.

I don't think I can make this meeting. Have fun!

I don't think it is a tie - I see 4 votes for Secret Santa and 3 votes for Yankee Swap. Unless I'm missing something? Still, I think we should get everyone's votes....

I lean toward Yankee swap if it's assumed we all bring "nice" gifts, so no one goes home with fake doggy doo, etc. But happy either way. I mean with Sectret Santa vs Yankee swap- not with doggy doo ;-)

Hi gals...we are split for secret Santa and Yankee swap....any tie breakers??

Hi there!

I can do the 20th :) I kind of lean to Yankee Swap, but seems the movement is for Secret Santa ... happy either way! Gifties! Ho! Ho! Ho!!!

hello ladies!

I am fine with the 20th and I'd lean more towards Secret Santa!

Happy thanksgiving!

Best,

Sara

20th works for me! I vote for secret santa, but am love yankee swaps too.

Any news on the next book?

Count me in for the 20th. And I vote for Yankee Swap...

Also - Angela - would be awesome to have it at your house as well :)

December 20 is fine with me. I vote yankee swap. If you guys are interested in doing a holiday party - potluck for the December meeting, we can do something at my house. I will be home on maternity so I will have some time to put things in the oven, etc in the afternoon/ early evening...

I vote Secret Santa.

Could everyone please post their preference between Secret Santa and a Yankee Swap (see Leigh's email)?

Dec 20th works for me! I vote for Secret Santa but would also be fine doing a Yankee Swap.

Hi Ladies,
We were thinking last night that we should maybe pin down our December meeting since thigs will start getting crazy with holidays events. Would Tuesday, Dec 20 work for people? If not, we'll take it to a doodle, I guess.

Ha ha ha Aaron, yes, I can see that. And would not be interested in that jewelry...

Does this etsy jewelry remind anyone else of the tannis root necklace from Rosemary's Baby?

I'll see some of you tonight at Arturo's!

Count me in, even though I didn't read the book. I will try to get there as close to 7 as possible as well, but will be commuting from Melrose so I might hit some traffic as well.

Sorry I didn't weigh in earlier. I can't make it on a school night. Have fun!

Just found out that my volleyball game was cancelled, but since I haven't read the book, I won't be there.

PS. Would like to do the secret santa again if people are interested?

I am a tentative. Need to juggle my schedule a bit. I didn't have a chance to read the book. Sorry.

Sorry for the VERY delayed reply. I can make the 10th and Arturo's sounds great! Looking forward to seeing everyone.
