Get to know your friends....Holiday

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags?  Gift wrap.  It should coordinate, have unique accessories (cinnamon sticks, bells, ornaments, real ribbon), and look very pretty.  I enjoy the wrapping as much as the buying. 

 

2. Real tree or Artificial?  Real


3. When do you put up the tree?  As soon after Thanksgiving as possible

Just wanted to say thanks for getting "Last Christmas" stuck in my head... Why in the world is that even considered a Christmas song? "This year... I'll give it to someone SPECIAL." I'd like to give him something special all right. And all the djs that play that dumb song. Oh, well. Merry Chrima!
