Welcome to the Christmas edition of getting to know your friends.
Okay, here's what you're supposed to do, and try not to be a SCROOGE!!!

answers so that they apply to you…(hit quote and reply, copy, click cancel,

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? wrapping paper
2. Real tree or Artificial? I prefer both
3. When do you put up the tree? artificial ones start going up the day
after Thanksgiving, the real one about a week and a half before Christmas
4. When do you take the tree down? artificial ones, New Year's Day -
real one comes down the day after Christmas
5. Do you like eggnog? I do if it contains massive quantities of rum…
6. Favorite gift received as a child? my Raggedy Ann (I still have her,
she still has her ratty bloomers, and she has very little hair - is was/is loved!)
7. Hardest person to buy for? that would be my mother
8. Easiest person to buy for? my daughter
9. Do you have a nativity scene? yes
10. Mail or email Christmas cards? mail, I love sending cards
11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? My mother decided to buy me
clothes one year. While my mother (traditional) has excellent taste, she doesn't
have my taste (unconventional). Everything was black, wool, and plaid! I
tried hard not to show my disappointment, but even my dad noticed and asked
my mom to return those clothes!
12. Favorite Christmas Movie? It's A Wonderful Life
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? I pick up things throughout
the year, but don't get serious until around two weeks before Thanksgiving.
14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? No. (Not that I haven't been
tempted) If I don't like it, I donate it. I really try to give people things I think
they'd love.
15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Pauline's fudge
16. Lights on the tree? yes and no - if yes, white ones
17. Favorite Christmas song? I don't have a favorite - but love the hymns
18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? I'd rather have Christmas with our
family and children in our home.
19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer? yes
20. Angel on the tree top or a star? star(s)
21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? The kids get to open their
new PJs and one other gift they select on Christmas Eve. I get everyone up
at 4 AM Christmas morning, and we open gifts then.
22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? I love the “Grinch-types”
and the people that love it all. I try not to be annoyed at this time of year.
23. Favorite ornament theme or color? I like the rich traditional colors - the
deep reds of roses and deep greens of pines. We were married five days
before Christmas, and those were our colors.
24. Favorite food for Christmas dinner? prime rib, salad, and a baked potato
(This is a delicious meal that is easy to prepare and doesn't glue me to the
kitchen.) We have soups and salads on Christmas Eve - light food before
midnight services.
25. What do you want for Christmas this year? a wooden squirrel and
World Peace
26. Do you peek? I'd rather be surprised - unless it's going to be an
unpleasant “surprise” on Christmas Day. Let's just say I know which gifts
to deal with before…(this elf knows not to let the little things ruin the magic -
and this elf knows which “little things” try every year)
