Advent Calendar Day 14:

My cousin charspillane.com posted a great blog yesterday, so simply put… I’ve nicked the idea and her questions!

Do you like to stay in your PJ’s, or dress up for Christmas Morning
Pj’s…. All day if I could!!

If you could only buy one person a present this year who would it be?
A random stranger, share a bit of love and happiness….

Last year

Do you open your presents Christmas Eve or Christmas Morning?
Christmas Day at some stage… It tends to be after dinner now I’m a little older…

Have you ever built a Gingerbread house?
No actually…. Must find time to make one (not just buy one).

What do you like to do on your Christmas break?
Chill out and pig out!

Favorite Christmas meal or treat?
The main event itself! I love the whole turkey-ham-stuffing-cranberry-brusselsprout-pancetta-chesnut-roastpotato-carrots-parsnips-gravy-breadsauce meal!

What’s your favorite holiday movie?

Candy Canes or Gingerbread Men?
Oooh, spicy gingerbread please! Has anyone got a good recipe??

Have you ever made a Snowman?
Yes, but not recently. I remember making them when I was younger in London.

Which do you like better, Christmas Eve or Christmas Day?
Christmas Eve is always too busy running around, so I like the relaxing aspect of Christmas Day.

White lights, or colored lights?
I have coloured in the pantry all year round, but white ones on the tree please.

Mum and Dads

Have to loudly sing the chorus of Jingle Bells every time you walk into a room for a week or have to wear a Santa suit to school every day for a week.
What the heck, sing Jingle Bells!

Not celebrate Christmas this year or not celebrate your birthday this year
Hmmmmm, I prefer other peoples birthdays,  so I’ll leave mine and celebrate Christmas.

Have Frosty the Snowman for a friend or Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer for a friend
Rudolf would fit in really well at The Glen House!

Have mistletoe hanging in your bedroom doorway or have a large decorated Christmas tree in your bedroom
Misletoe please ;););)xxxxxxxx

Write a five paragraph essay about the meaning of Christmas or solve a page of Christmas-themed math problem
BORING

Have a job wrapping presents at the mall or have a job taking pictures of children sitting on Santa’s lap at the mall
I love wrapping pressies, but I’d only do it if people were nice and polite!

See the Nut Cracker or dance in the Nut Cracker
Oh cricky, I was rubbish at ballet! I think I only lasted a term or something… So I’d rather go watch it.

Be given €100 for Christmas to buy things for yourself or be given €1000 before Christmas to use to buy gifts for other people
Once again, give it away to others. If I’m REALLY honest, I’d give it to Childline, it’s struggling to stay open at night time in Ireland.

Have a nose that glows red like Rudolf’s or have pointy ears like an elf
Rudolf’s nose would be so cool!!
