Basically everyone buys a gift of roughly the same dollar amt and wraps it. It is basically an exchange. Everyone draws a number and #1 gets to pick a gift first and so on. When you pick you open the gift. But the trick is that you can ask for anyone's gift who opened before you! It can get really fun towards the end and there is always one gift that everyone wants! I know I'm missing a few of the rules in there but that is the basic idea. Do they do Yankee Swaps anywhere else? It hadn't ocurred to me that it might be somethign that started as a New England thing ("yankee")!emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05043229473508255966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5410488141785394907.post-38911181543470346432008-12-20T05:05:00.000-05:002008-12-20T05:05:00.000-05:00Pretty tree!!!!Hope you enjoyed your ice cream and...Pretty tree!!!!<BR/>Hope you enjoyed your ice cream and stay warm and safe.Jen Mchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18126966792754174311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5410488141785394907.post-73831387418410651292008-12-19T21:46:00.000-05:002008-12-19T21:46:00.000-05:00whats a yankee swap?cool tree.whats a yankee swap?<BR/><BR/>cool tree.KarenSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05447269894670561162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5410488141785394907.post-31610845452621504902008-12-19T18:38:00.000-05:002008-12-19T18:38:00.000-05:00omgosh, I love peppermint ice cream!
