't'was six nights before christmas ...

This holiday meme was stolen -- with love and lust -- from Robyn.

1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate?
Hot chocolate, hands down … not a big fan of egg nog.

2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree?
Santa doesn’t wrap presents … he’s all about delivery.

3. Colored lights on tree/house or white?
Yes, please.

4. Do you hang mistletoe?
No … not a lot of mistletoe in the tropics.

5. When do you put your decorations up?
I think the question is do I ever bother to take them down … LOL

6. What is your favorite holiday dish (excluding dessert)?
Roast turkey … fuck I love it.

7. Favorite holiday memory as a child:
My first real memory of Christmas is my dad making holiday wreaths out of these outdated computer cards … rolling then into cones then arranging them into the wreath shape, then painting them with spray paint.

8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa?
Since I am distantly related to Santa Claus, I will neither confirm nor deny anything.

9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve?
Yes … my godsons’ family tradition is to open presents Christmas Eve, so I do that over there.

10. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree?
With lights and ornaments? Duh!

11. Snow! Love it or Dread it?
I love the idea of snow.

12. Can you ice skate?
Sure … I learned on the pond next to the coconut trees.

13. Do you remember your favorite gift?
Yes … last year … Two-Ball Putter … I love that thing.

14. What is your favorite holiday dessert?
Fudge. Hands down.

15. What is your favorite holiday tradition?
I have fond memories of Midnight Mass … the carols and solemnity … but I’d have to say wrapping presents.

16. What tops your tree?
Angel.

17. Which do you prefer -- giving or receiving?
I love to give gifts.

18. What is your favorite Christmas song?
There are too many to choose from.

19. Candy Canes! Yuck or Yum?
One or two or three … then that’s it!

Seeing as it's my first x-mas in my new place, I thought I'd be all really excited about decorations. I can't be arsed. I have not put one light up, let alone a tree. And I'm perfectly OK with that.

There were computers around when you were little?

Mmmm fudge. And I'm with you on the wrapping... the only thing better is a) watching people fuss with the meticulous wrapping, especially my sister who doesn't like to rip the paper, and b) the looks on their faces when I've done a good gift-giving job.
