<p>The morning after I arrive home for the holidays, my Dad and I grab a Starbucks and head off for last-minute Christmas shopping to <strong><a href="http://www.magpiesgifts.com/" target="_blank">Magpies Gifts</a></strong>, my favorite store in Sugar Land, TX. </p>

<p>I am not a shopper, and neither is my Dad, so we enjoy keeping each other company (and accountable) while hunting for one-of-a-kind gifts together.  This year, I managed to find gifts for almost all of my 13 family members in one fell Magpie swoop. </p>
