1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Paper...but on the other had I do think bags are nice too, and don't make such a mess...but then again...isn't that a great part of the Christmas-fun - drowning in wrapping paper?! :D
2. Real tree or Artificial? Real! But seriously considering to get an artificial one because I HATE the mess! ;) Just haven't found one that looks (and smells) as nice! :D
3. When do you put up the tree? Around Lucia (Dec. 13) but growing up we decorated the tree the day before Christmas Eve...and still do at my sisters. Stephen doesn't get it so that's why ours it put up earlier. ;)
4. Do you like eggnog? Never tried it! :O
5. Favorite gift received as a child? Hmmm...I can't say...I've gotten most use out of my bike (that I got when I was 14) and cd-player (at 14 too I think) ...camera is catching up on those two quickly but favourite one? Probably a book or a record, love a good book! :)
6. Hardest person to buy for? Stephen and brother-in-law! Both don't know what they want...impossible!
7. Easiest person to buy for? Kiddies, both my own and sisters girls.
8. Do you have a nativity scene? No.
9. Mail or email Christmas cards? Mail, and only to the ones I got one from last year. :) Got fed up with sending TONS and getting 5 back so I've got a list of who I sent to and who sent one back. People do get the occational second, third, forth chance but only if I have time..
10. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? It's unfortunate but true that our beloved Granny was just hopeless with gifts...she wanted so badly to give everyone something that we all got hmmm..."rubbish". :/ A brown and orange apron one year, some other brickabrack another year... We knew she meant well but they were really bad and it would have been enough just her being with us. :)
11. Favorite Christmas Movie? :/ Don't know...
12. When do you start shopping? A week before Christmas if I plan well... :D
13. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? As in passed it on to someone else? No, don't think so.
14. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? The desserts!
15. Lights on the tree? Small, white ones.
16. Favorite Christmas song? The traditional Swedish ones... but the wierd 50's up beat ones are good laugh too. :)
17. Travel at Christmas or stay home? Home as in "with family" since we mostly spend Christmas at my sisters about half an hours drive away and usually spend the night before and after to get into the "Christmas-mood" and finish last details together...
18. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer's? Nope.
19. Angel on the tree top or a star? Star, but would love to find the "right" angel, still looking though.
20. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? Always Christmas Eve, in the afternoon when Santa comes to the door, possibly will do something on Christmas Day later on to embrace the British tradition...
21. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? Having to figure out what to get husband and brother-in-law :) NEVER easy!
