Hot Chocolate or Eggnog?
Hot chocolate. Since I
am allergic to eggs, eggnog might not be a good idea! However, I used to drink
my Grandma’s eggnog…let’s just say it was less egg and more nog! Lol.
Does Santa wrap
presents or just sit them underneath the tree?
Well when Santa
visited me…some things were wrapped and some where unwrapped…now everything is
stuffed in my stocking..which was knitted by my great aunt. Those suckers can
hold a lot! When the day comes that I have children of my own gifts will
probably be both wrapped and unwrapped!
Colored lights or
white?
I used to love colored
lights, but now I am liking the white lights. There is just something magical
about them.
When do you
decorate?
Sadly…we don’t
decorate! We are never home for Christmas so we very rarely put up a tree. That
will all change in the new house. I do however decorate my classroom and that
usually happens after Thanksgiving break.
Real or Fake
Tree?
Well I am allergic to
the real things, so fake it is!
What Tops Your Tree?
When I put up a tree
it is a Purple and Gold Star to go along with my LSU inspired tree!
Favorite Christmas
Memories or Traditions?
Every we go to my
Grandma’s and Aunts. Even though all the cousins have grown older and are
starting our own families we still stick with our traditions. At some point we
all watch Christmas Vacation; because we truly are the Griswolds…we used to
pull up in an RV…so I guess my family is Eddie Griswold. Lol. Every Christmas
Eve we have my Grandma’s Sauce Piquant (Cajun dish, kinda like Jambalaya and
Gumbo together) then we open presents from each other. Then it is off to bed.
My Favorite memory would be my cousin Jarred and I sneaking into the living
room to see what Santa brought. As we go older we got wiser and used walkie
talkies and flash lights. Then Christmas Morning comes and we open presents
(and act surprised) then every comes over to my aunts for Christmas lunch with
fried turkey and all the yumminess! Then we watch the movies we got in our
stockings. My mom and dad’s anniversary is the day after Christmas sometimes we
go out to eat other times we stay home.
Do you remember your
favorite gift as a child?
I would have to say it
was when I got my dog Muffie, who has since passed. My uncle had gotten a puppy
and his nephew had gotten the puppy’s sister and we were all passing the
puppies around loving on them, when I went to go give the puppy back to my
uncle he already had his, so I went to go give it back to his nephew, but he
already had his! I was like well who’s puppy is this? Everyone said she was
mine! She was a cute little snowball, even though she was a blue heeler. I had
her for 16 years until she died of cancer, she out lived her brother and sister
that my uncle and his nephew had.

Do prefer giving or
receiving?
Is it bad if I say both?
Lol. I love giving to my friend’s kids it is pure joy watching them open their
presents.
What is your favorite
Christmas song?
It is actually a new
one (well new to me) that my church choir sang in their Christmas Cantata. It
is called Heaven Everywhere by Francesca Battistelli.
Candy Canes. Yuck or
Yum?
Yuck…I like
peppermints, but for some reason I don’t like candy canes. I know I am weird!
Favorite Christmas Movie?
Christmas Vacation and Elf
