Dear Santa,

I don't believe I thanked you for my presents last year…well, thank you. I loved them! I can't believe another year has come and gone. Time sure flies when you're having fun. I hope you had a nice vacation with Mrs. Clause.

While I haven't been perfect over the past year, you know what I mean; I have tried really hard to be a good girl. Therefore, I feel like I deserve most of the things on my list. Don't feel bad if everything I ask for doesn't fit in your sleigh. You can send whatever you miss next year!

Season 4 of Lost!

First class plane ticket (to anywhere…I'm not picky)

A trip to Europe

A planned weekend getaway upstate

World peace

A hot Italian man that loves to cook – heck any many that loves to cook – who am I kidding any man would be great (I know I have asked for this several times. This is the year SANTA!)

Scrapbooking supplies – I need letters. You can never have enough.

A purse – Something black that can be worn on the shoulder.

A year supply of Light Soy Milk – plain please!

A dress – I'm looking for something fun to wear to church.

Tights – cute ones with a pattern, not the little girl kind I have.

A knight in shining armor – armor is optional – A prince will do too

Tickets to Billy Eliot, 9 to 5, and West Side Story

Some cute pumps (black with a short heel)

Workout shorts/pants

"New York Minute" – I haven't seen it, but I love Mary-Kate and Ashley

Jewelry – something fun. I'm thinking earrings. I really need some cute ones

Socks - I'm a girl that loves socks.

Something cute to decorate my room with.

A $1,000 gift card to Rice to Riches.

Mad cooking skills. You know that's a need and not a want

Well, how does that sound? I know there are some repeats from last year, but let that just be a way of saying I really really want it. You didn't eat the cookies I left out last year. I wasn't offended, just concerned. Please let me know what you prefer.

Merry Christmas,

erika
