(my Secret Santa-ee didn't give me much to work with. :-( )
Mine gave me a ton to work with. I think it's easier if your SS doesn't give you a lot because then you have more room to insert things you personally want to include, or think they'll like. With a big list it's like, okay, they're so specific I need to include what they say to include, and if I don't, they may not like it because this is WHAT THEY WANT.
