No I’m not kidding, I am actually the worst person to buy gifts for.

It really doesn’t take much to make me happy and I have very few wants in life (none of which can be bought) which should actually make buying presents for me a breeze, I’m grateful to receive any kind of present when someone has been thoughtfully enough to buy one for me. The reality though is that my loved ones actually get a bit annoyed when they ask me what I would like for Christmas and I reply that I don’t need anything. It’s possible I make them feel a little guilty as (even though I hate Christmas) I tend to put a lot of effort and thought in to my gifts, especially the ones I make myself.

So this is a public appeal to all of you to save me from grouchy family this Christmas and help me compile a list of (sensible) gift ideas that I can pass on to them. (Or even better you can tell me what you are asking for from Santa this year and I can pinch ideas from your lists.) What are the must have items this year for any discerning 20 something geeky female who likes video games and baking?
