One year my brother & SIL stopped by on their way to SIL's sisters house for Christmas. I had crochet them an afghan for their Christmas gift. At that time they didn't have anything for us, witch was okay. But on their way back home, they stopped by again & gave us a box of flavored crackers. That would have been okay to, but it had someone else's name on it. I would have rather got nothing than a left over for someone that didn't show up at her sisters house. I think they even ended up giving the afghan to her sister for Christmas.
