The sun is shining brightly here, hopefully helping my apricots to get ripe. I wish some got ripe by next week. We have a long weekend next week and I will not be here so it will be either this week until Tuesday or at the begining of the week after that. In my country, December 8th is a religious holiday. My aunt from San Fernando called me telling me that I´m invited by one of his friends to a dinner on Wednesday. Every year the group of friends get together and play a game called "the secret friend". We have to get a gift for one of the people there. It doesn´t have to be expensive, but the idea is that we get something nice. Do you play that game where you live?

Often it's called 'Secret Santa'. It is fun to buy something a bit special for someone you don't know.

I only want to know, if possible, if it is for a manor a woman. My aunt told me that once she bough a man lipstick because she was sure her secret friend was a woman

We played that game when I worked with fellow co-workers and it was a lot of fun

They do it here too. In this case though, it is a group of friends from the neighborhood.
