10. WORST CHRISTMAS GIFT YOU EVER RECEIVED? I will preface my answer with this: my husband has turned into the best gift giver on the planet. BUT....on our first Christmas as a couple, when I was trying to figure out where I fit into his life and what he thought of me, he gave me a gift certificate to the grocery store. Yep, the grocery store. Little did I know, he has a personally-designed diamond ring on order for me, which arrived a few weeks later.
