Get your Peculiar Aristocratic Title

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags?    I am so lazy! Gift bags – preferable one that came with a gift for  me in years past [I’m also frugal}

2. Real tree or artificial?   My children and I used to go cut down a tree – what fun. Then they spoiled everything and got married/left home.     I have two faux... one antique that belonged to the widower next door-- he didn’t wanna move it. For free take... did I mention I am frugal? 

3. When do you put up the tree?  A couple of days before Christmas

4. When do you take the tree down? When people get really ugly about it –

never before two weeks after New Years Day

5. Do you like egg nog? I like eggs. Nogs. No.

6. Favorite gift received as a child? I don’t remember presents – I remember Christmas caroling, Christmas plays, concerts ... making candy, ornaments...  doing/going  I'm sure I got something!

and I loved it. 

7. Do you have a nativity scene?   Yes, several. I have a rustic old one that was handmade by a gentleman from church, a ceramic one my Mama made, a plaster one my brother gave me...

8. Hardest person to buy for? Mother in law 

9. Easiest person to buy for? Middle grandson - he is so grateful for EVERYTHING 

10. Worst Christmas gift ever received? A gold lame’ evening clutch,,,,,???   or maybe the frog kitchen sponge holder that had 25cents written on the bottom,  it was a bit scuffed.  My next door neighbor gave it to me -- not a kid.  I'd rather have a cookie.

12. Favorite Christmas Movie?   The Grinch Who Stole Christmas  well, maybe it isn't a movie -- I'm really not into movies..

13. When do you start shopping for Christmas?   I never do. Sometimes I go with someone to buy a present... I haven’t shopped since I was a professional shopper...


14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? Of course


15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Fudge

22. Most annoying thing about this time of year?  The way it sneaks up on you without warning

– I mean, who knew!
