2. Real tree or artificial?
> Here in our country, rarely do you see anyone using the real tree for a Christmas tree. We have an artificial one that we can use over and over for a few years. Come to think of it our first owned Christmas tree will have its first anniversary on the 10th of December. This was a lucky Christmas tree coz when we bought it at GMall we were given able to join the raffle and we won a water dispenser.

3. When do you put up the tree?
> We have put up the Christmas tree last November 21 before the feast of Christ the King which is the Sunday before the first Sunday of Advent.

4. When do you take the tree down?
> Way back in my parents home, we take down the tree after Three Kings or Epiphany. But there are times when it goes way beyond that day. One time it almost came close to Valentine’s day. Just goes to show we celebrate here the longest Christmas holiday season.

5. Do you like eggnog?
> Hmm sorry but no.

6. Favorite gifts received as a child?
> Anything big hahaha I always thought when I was way younger that the bigger the gift the better. Well I was a kid then.

7. Hardest person to buy for?
> My mom.

8. Easiest person to buy for?
> My mom hahaha why because she’d prefer cash rather than any material gift. But my mom is not greedy coz the cash she receives goes back to us as she would buy more food that she knows we love to eat. She has gone past being materialistic as I remember her telling us that she does not need material gifts as they get lost, worn and torn. She’d rather ask for good health and other non-material things.

9. Do you have a nativity scene?
> No we do not have one now. But I remember we used to have one in my parents’ home.

10. Mail or email Christmas cards?
> Well it has been a long time since I have given away one whether thru mail or email.

11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received?
> I don’t remember if I had such an experience.

12. Favorite Christmas Movie?
> There were a few of them but I cannot remember the titles anymore.

13. When do you start shopping for Christmas?
> As soon as possible. In fact we had already bought the gifts we intend to give our son CT. As for me, hubby has already given two of my Christmas gifts in my wishlist. The only thing I need later if money for shopping for grocery for our Noche Buena.

14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present?
> I saw that on TV Patrol tonight. Yup I have done that before with an officemate but that gift was not used.

15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas?
> Ham, white macaroni salad, pastries, embutido, almost everything hahaha!

16. Lights on the tree?
> We just finished putting on the Christmas lights in our tree – two sets of 100 colored chasing rice lights and one with a white laced ribbon over it.

17. Favorite Christmas songs?
> Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas… actually there are lots of them.

18. Travel at Christmas or stay home?
> Stay home but we may be going to my parents’ home in the morning.

19. Can you name all of Santa’s reindeer?
> Yup I think so – Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donder and Blitzen. Plus Rudolf the red-nosed reindeer!

20. Angel on the tree top or a star?
> Angel, we still have to buy one.

21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning?
> In my family side, we either open the gifts on Christmas morning or on New Year’s morning. In my hubby’s family side – New Year’s morning.

22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year?
> Traffic… crowded malls… Ingredients for food to be cooked for Christmas go higher and some run out of stock sometimes.

23. Favorite ornament theme or color?
> This year, it’s somehow multi-colored starting with the lights. But before I wanted a “blue” Christmas meaning the decors would mostly be blue but I did not find much blue decors in the department stores that we have been to so maybe next time.

24. Favorite for Christmas dinner?
> Ham.

25. What do you want for Christmas this year?
> As I always continue to pray – good health, peace, happiness, unity, prosperity, protection and guidance in our family! And not to forget – world peace!

The material things in my wish list of which two were already given to me by hubby, can be bought anytime within the coming year given we have extra money and budget for them. Also if I can have one of those pairs of Beautifeel shoes.
