Spill your (holiday) guts...

1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate? Hot Chocolate! Every year I always trick myself into thinking that I might like Egg Nog, I mean it's tradition, right? and I try it and I always hate it.
2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree? He wraps all presents that aren't a mountain bike.
3. Colored lights on tree/house or white? white
4. Do you hang mistletoe? No
5. When do you put your decorations up? the middle of December when school finals are over with.
6. What is your favorite holiday dish (excluding dessert)? Mashed potatoes and gravy
7. Favorite Holiday memory as a child: There are so many, but mostly just being with my family. I can only remember all of the silly tricks we would play on each other, I think it's because we would laugh so much ...like that time my brother gave our little sister a log for Christmas.
8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa? My brothers, sister and I were awful about searching out presents. So when I found some presents before Christmas that later "came from Santa" I confronted my mom about it and she told me the truth. But then I told my brother, cause he had his suspicions too.
9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve? Just one, we usually try to give each other something really funny for Christmas Eve, so we can stay up laughing and playing.
10. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree? White lights and matching ornaments, I know I know, I'm supposed to have this big gaudy thing and I always did when I was growing up but now I can't resist trying to actually make my tree look pretty.
11. Snow! Love it or Dread it? I love it when it snows on Christmas.
12. Can you ice skate? A little and then I fall down.
13. Do you remember your favorite gift? My favorite gift isn't a Christmas gift. It's my grandma's wedding band that I received for my wedding.
14. What's the most important thing about the Holidays for you? being with family
15. What is your favorite Holiday Dessert? pie
16. What is your favorite holiday tradition? Just that everybody gets together. My family always makes a point to be together on Christmas and it just doesn't seem like Christmas without that.
17. What tops your tree? This year it is a dove.
18. Which do you prefer giving or Receiving? It's nice to receive presents but I Love giving presents much more.
19. What is your favorite Christmas Song? I have a few, but I have a particular version of Ave Maria gets me everytime.
20. Candy Canes... Yuck or Yum? Yum

Hey, cool meme! Maybe I'll do it on my blog. Not sure I want to try blogging from here. My internet is annoying, but when it works, it blasts! Re eggnog: you're so lucky you don't like it. It's way more calorific than hot chocolate.
