Not yet, but I'm considering some of those for probably my sisters and /or my mom.
Now I got a couple of little toy cars for my nephew, and my niece wanted specifically Harry Potter's second book, so I got that for her.
I'll try to start at least in November next year
Hair chalk for my niece
And the most stupid gift you can buy to someone
SOCKS
fluffy ones
Now I can die with shame
Sonoma sits in a large valley with the Bay to it's South and the Ocean to the west by about 30ish miles - so those two factors often keep the area warmer then say somewhere like Lake Tahoe. If it does snow it's soooo minuscule that you don't even notice.

^ Hah, love it! You’d have to go over a hundred years back to see real snow!

@Stormbringer I lived in Sacramento 2014 and for 7/8days straight our temps floated between 43.8 and 48.3 °C We had such bad and long lasting rolling black outs that you couldn't get the AC on for more then a hour before the grid went down, and when it went down it was down for days.... no air conditioning, no fans, and no relief from cold showers. You'd step out of the shower wet (fuck drying off), and within 10 minutes you were back to dry. I had two cats at that point, and one of them died due to the heat and my best efforts to keep them cool.
When it cooled down we were still in the mid 100's (40°C) On top of it we were in a severe drought so utilizing the water for long periods of time to try and cool off meant you were handed fines at the end of the month plus and astronomical bill. I think I was given a 200 dollar fine... so yeah, very little water either.

2014 was hottest year in Sacramento's history
Sacramento plodded through its hottest year on record in 2014, with an average high temperature a full degree above the city's next-hottest year, according to a Bee analysis of records from the National Climatic Data Center.
California also experienced its hottest year in 2014 as an historic drought caused by a coastal high-pressure ridge kept storms from reaching the state during much of last winter.
Temperatures were also aggravated by El Niño, the rise in water temperature in the equatorial Pacific Ocean that often disrupts weather throughout North America.
Average temperatures have increased statewide and in Sacramento during the last 100 years, a trend that most scientists attribute to climate change.
This chart shows the average high temperature at Sacramento's downtown weather station over the last 130 years.

What happened to the cat? 
One summer my cat had been outside for a long time. Me and my mom started searching for it. After a while I realized that he was sleeping in a nearby bush but had not made any noise despite how we had called his name! I carried him inside and noticed that he couldn’t really walk! But then after a bit he seemed much better. We took him to the vet just in case. I’m positive that he could have died from heatstroke if I hadn’t found him! I think animals don’t sometimes know how to regulate themselves if they are too cold or too warm. 
A couple of Christmas gifts. Almost done!
