TAGGED … here we go: 1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate? Hot chocolate! 2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree? They sit wrapped under the tree *lol* … wrapping is a MUST – it’s half the fun to UNWRAP presents … so they definitely have to be wrapped!!! 3. Colored lights on tree/house or white? Depends … but mostly white since I prefer the traditional look … some coloured lights are okey – a good mixture … 4. Do you hang mistletoe? No … 5. When do you put your decorations up? We usually start putting all decoration up at the beginning of december and kind of keep adding little bits & pieces here and there all trough the december – like received cards & tiny gifts etc. 6. Favorite Holiday memory as a child: Waiting for the "Weihnachtsmann" to arrive on the evening of december 24th … I usually was VERY excited and recited my learned christmas-poem (we had to recite a learned poem or song to Santa before receiving our gifts – that was a tradition) over and over again to make sure I was prepared when Santa would arrive *lol* … 7. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa? I really can’t remember HOW or WHEN exactly I got to know the truth … I guess I was 6 or something like that and I guess my big brother told me somehow … I think … 8. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve? Uhmmm … yeah … sure … in Germany it’s tradition to open the gifts on Christmas-Eve instead of in the morning of the 25th … 9. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree? In a very traditional way – white lights – tinsel – ornaments (gold & red or gold & orange) and some other sparkling ornaments like stars … 10. Snow! Love it or Dread it? LOVE it … absolutely!!! 11. Do you know how to ice skate? Well … yeah – I’m not very good at it – just the basics (and I DO KNOW how to stop again *lol*) 12. Do you remember your favorite gift? Hmmm … no … actually not … but I remember one gift I received as a little child which I really LOVED for years … it was a little Piano for children on which you could really play and it was oooo cool – I loved it (even tough I could never *really* play the piano – mostly I made up my own songs as a child *g*)! 13. What’s the most important thing about the Holidays for you? Enjoying some quiet days with my family – just relaxing – doing things I love and usually don’t have the time for (like reading a good book, watching my favourite movies …)!!! 14. What is your favorite Holiday Dessert? Chocolate-Cream-Pudding with Vanilla-Sauce *yum* … 15. What is your favorite holiday tradition? Decorating the tree on december 23rd … 16. What tops your tree? A glittering, shimmering star … 17. Which do you prefer giving or receiving? To be honest – both!!! I LOVE to give presents and to really come up with something original and extraordinary and I usually can’t wait for others to open my presents to see how they like them – that’s so much fun! But I also love receiving presents – of course … who doesn’t??? 18. What is your favorite Christmas Song? "Silent Night" in every language … LOVE it!!! 19. Candy Canes! Yuck or Yum? Nice to look at – use them for decoration-purpose … but don’t eat them afterwards … my niece LOVES them so she will get them afterwards I TAG: Nat & Jana & Schulu … (if you have the time for it …)
