The Christmas 'Tag'omine

I've been tagged by Jolly! This one was easy enough (read: didn’t have to think too much or bare my soul out-both make me uncomfortable in different ways!) So, here goes!

1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate?
Neither. One cup filter coffee, please!

2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree?
Puhleeeaazze! Santa doesnt wrap presents....the elves do!!!

3. Colored lights on tree/house or white?
Subjective. If the house is already brightly colored- stick with the decorations alone. If the house is white- go on, give the colored ones a chance. However, if white meant snow - then, dont try anything stupid, you could have a fall or worse, an electric shock - Just draw funny faces and leave a note for aliens to read from their UFOs.

4. Do you hang mistletoe?
Nooo! No need for that...*blushes violently*

5. When do you put your decorations up?
Used to be the beginning of advent. This year, it was two days before Christmas, and that too, courtesy mom!

6. What is your favorite holiday dish (excluding dessert)?
Biryani!

7. Favorite holiday memory as a child:
Carol singing, late into the night!

8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa?
*panicking*...what truth?? He is fine, isnt he??

9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve?
Gift? What gift?

10. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree?
Recently, I found a bookmark lying on the floor, I was in a hurry to leave, so I stuck it in the Christmas tree..hehe!

11. Snow! Love it or Dread it?
Inside my room, warm and cozy, with a mug of hot (you guessed it!) filter coffee - Love it!
Covered, head to toe, my house just another few steps away, and its snowing - Will probably enjoy it.
Snow stopped, now melting, slushy everywhere - Dread it!

12. Can you ice skate?
Given my history of misplaced centre of gravity....I'm sure I can - on my behind!

13. Do you remember your favorite gift?
Yes.

14. What is the most important thing about the Holidays for you?
The evasive Christmas spirit!

15. What is your favorite Holiday Dessert?
Plum cake =D

16. What is your favorite holiday tradition?
Plum cake =D (and coffee)!

17. What tops your tree?
Star.

18. Which do you prefer giving or receiving?
Both.

19. What is your favorite Christmas Song?
Oh Holy Night

20. Candy Canes: Yuck or Yum?
Yum (until, I get high on Sugar and cant have another crystal, that is!)

21. What do you want for Christmas?
Someone who'll switch places with me, to do the rounds of sharing Christmas 'palagaram' with the neighbours.

22. Do you attend an annual Christmas Party?
Nopeee.

23. Do you dress up on Christmas or wear PJs?
PJs =D (assuming, we are talking about Christmas day and not, Christmas eve, where we attend midnight mass).

24. Do you own a Santa hat?
Used to, lost it (the hat, I mean).

25. Who do you normally spend Christmas with?
Family and family!
