Christmas is one of my favorite holidays, but I don't really feel "in the spirit" this year... So I'm going to answer some of these questions about the holiday on here just to see if I can add a little holly jolly to my holiday!
What is your favorite Christmas movie?
I hadn't even heard of this movie until my husband showed it to me, but I now LOVE Jingle All The Way. It is so funny! Old Arnold is great, but even more so than him, I loved seeing Phil Hartman.
What's the oddest gift you've ever recieved?
What is your favorite Christmas treat?
An entire boxset of Amish romance novels from my husband's Menonite granma... I didn't even know things like this existed!
I love potato candies, but I haven't had them since my grandma died years ago. I tried making them myself and it turned out disastrously. I also love puppy chow and will eat an entire bag if it's given to me. And thanks to my husband I now love krumkake filled with lingonberry cream.
What is your favorite Christmas memory?
One year for Christmas when I was younger I got a Nintendo Gamecube with Super Mario Sunshine, Enya's album "A Day Without Rain", and this book by Mary Downing Hahn - "Look For Me By Moonlight" about a girl and a vampire. I still remember the smell of it, and now whenever I smell books I think of this book and I hear "Tempus Vernum" playing in the background and I can picture myself sitting on a blanket in the floor by the tree with my (now dead) cat and my little sister who was a baby at the time.
What are some things you would like to do for Christmas?
Riding a carriage pulled by horses would be fun, but I would only want to do it if I was riding through a snowy town! We have carriage rides where we live, but it ends the week before Christmas and it never snows this early here :(
What is your favorite Christmas ornament?
One day I would also like to stay in a cabin over the holiday for a staycation. Again, preferably somewhere where there's a lot of snow!
I would love to go to a really decorated, decked out Christmas party. I've been to a few company parties for Christmas, but nothing like what I've seen in movies...
I don't know about my favorite ornament, but I've been getting these Hallmark kitty ornaments for years. I love cats and I think these are cute, maybe one day I'll have an entire little tree full of them.
What do you want for Christmas this year?
There's not much I wanted at all, except to spend a happy holiday with my husband! He gets annoyed when I don't tell him gifts I want, but really, I couldn't think of much this year... My mom and sister will be coming to our place, so I hope that we eat good food and have a good time.
