We have a tradition with friends to volunteer wrapping xmas presents at the Family Giving Tree. This year there were 30 of us and we went down this weekend for a 2 hour shift. We had a new task this year -- checking the gifts against a recall list. Each gift coming into the warehouse had to be checked to ensure that it had not been recalled. It was not the most glamorous of jobs, but it had to be done. So we spent 1 1/2 hours pounding thru a huge pile of gifts. Once we oked them the children ran them to the appropriate area in the warehouse. In the hundreds and hundreds of gifts we checked, we only found one recall. That's Jim with the Sharks santa hat with the suspect item -- it was a boys jacket from Old Navy. And you would have guessed he found the Golden Ticket! We were all so excited to actually find a recalled item!
I have to say, this event is my favorite part of the holiday season.
