Whatever your boss gives you is in the realm of "holiday bonus" (which is why I insist that my boss give our secretary cash and not something useless). You don't give your boss a bonus, so you don't give him/her a "gift."
I also tell my secretary and others that bonuses flow downhill so they shouldn't even dream of giving me anything. I gave my secretary a nice crisp $100.
