A used kazoo. "Oh thank you. You even wrapped this yourself, didn't you?"

Normally I get cheesy music-themed notepads and such, but this Christmas I got NICE gifts from a few students - an oversized warm fleece blanket, $25 Simon Visa gift card, cookies, and a Mozart mug from B&N. Yay for good piano student gifts!
Unfortunately the weird Christmas gifts come from distant relatives (actually only one) - bread clips, halloween makeup, and one of those used plastic souvenir cups from a football game (not sure she even washed it out first).

When you earnestly believe you can compensate for a lack of skill by doubling your efforts, there's no end to what you can't do.

I had 2 (unframed) photos of seaweed in the shape of a treble and a bass clef held up against the sea -rather nice, definitely weird!
