Preferences (Of the Christmas Variety)


One of the things I love about the holiday season is that everyone has their own preferences as to what makes it perfect. And though it can be fun to "debate" who's preference is better, what really matters is what makes the season special to you and your family. Below I listed a Christmas meme of sorts. Feel free to answer all, some, or none in the comments below. Or if you have an other answer to the choices I listed please do share!

The Tree
real tree or artificial
colored lights or white
flashing lights or nonflashers
garland or tinsel
themed tree or smorgasbord of ornaments
wrapping paper or gift bags

Under the Tree

wrapping paper or gift bags
everything wrapped or half & half

Entertainment
Traditional Carols or contemporary artists’ songs
Rudolph or Frosty
Charlie Brown or The Grinch
The Nutcracker Ballet or the Rockettes
It’s A Wonderful Life or Miracle on 34th Street
A Christmas Story or Home Alone

Food and Drink
eggnog or hot cocoa
fruitcake or sugar cookies
candy canes or truffles

Other

Holiday Cards or E-cards

I'd like to wish you all Happy Holidays and best wishes for the New Year!

  1. When my kids were growing up we used to make tons and tons of Christmas goodies, put them on plates, and then go Christmas caroling to deliver them. Then when they got older and most had moved away we did the 12 Days of Christmas where we'd choose a family in the neighborhood that wasn't doing so well and anonymously gift them a little something each day for 12 days. The kids loved the stealth aspect of not getting caught. =D
