One note: If you're hand-delivering the gifts rather than mailing them, as Kendrick and I did last year (and it really is so fun and exciting to see the recipients' reactions), I recommend traveling in pairs. No wandering around unfamiliar apartment buildings and ringing strangers' doorbells alone, please!
