Shamelessly stolen from Simply Geeky<\/a>.<\/p>\n

1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate?<\/strong>
\nHot chocolate all the way!<\/p>\n

2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree?<\/strong>
\nWrap them, of course. They have to be a surprise.<\/p>\n

3. Colored lights on tree\/house or white?<\/strong>
\nSix years ago I would have said white lights because I liked things ordered and “mature”. Now I’d say colored lights because they’re more fun and festive.<\/p>\n

4. Do you hang mistletoe?<\/strong>
\nNope. I get all the free kisses I want every day.<\/p>\n

5. When do you put up your decorations?<\/strong>
\nSometime within the first two weeks of December. Any earlier and I grow sick of them by the time Christmas arrives.<\/p>\n

6. What is your favorite holiday dish (excluding dessert)?<\/strong>
\nHam!<\/p>\n

7. Favorite holiday memory as a child:<\/strong>
\nI can’t think of one in particular.<\/p>\n

8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa?<\/strong>
\nI have no idea. Maybe I always knew.<\/p>\n

9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve?<\/strong>
\nWhen I was a kid we’d open all our gifts on Christmas Eve, go to Midnight Mass, play with our new toys for a few hours, then sleep in the next morning before going to our grandparents’ homes. Now we still celebrate on Christmas Eve with my family and spend Christmas with each other since Joe’s family moved to Arizona.<\/p>\n

10. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree?<\/strong>
\nRandom ornaments all over the place! Themed trees, while pretty in the store, are rather restrictive. I like to add to the tree every year.<\/p>\n

11. Snow! Love it or Dread it?<\/strong>
\nDread it, hate it, want to move away from it.<\/p>\n

12. Can you ice skate?<\/strong>
\nNo, but I’d like to learn. It looks like fun!<\/p>\n

13. Do you remember your favorite gift?<\/strong>
\nThere are so many ….<\/p>\n

14. What’s the most important thing about the Holidays for you?<\/strong>
\nWhen I was a kid it was all about the presents. Now it’s all about watching loved ones open presents and enjoying the look on their face. Just being together and having fun is the best part of the holidays.<\/p>\n

15. What is your favorite holiday dessert?<\/strong>
\nI’m not sure if I really have one. I’m not into pies, I eat ice cream all the time, and cookies are just ok by me. Honestly, when my grandmother was alive the thing I looked forward to most was her stuffing.<\/p>\n

16. What is your favorite holiday tradition?<\/strong>
\nSpending time at my parents’ on Christmas Eve.<\/p>\n

17. What tops your tree?<\/strong>
\nI’m not sure …. <\/p>\n

18. Which do you prefer Giving or Receiving?<\/strong>
\nBoth!<\/p>\n

19. What is your favorite Christmas Song?<\/strong>
\nI don’t have one.<\/p>\n

20. Candy Canes!?<\/strong>
\nPretty to look at, yucky to eat.<\/p>\n

21. What is your wish for Christmas?<\/strong>
\nEveryone in my family to get along.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
