Christmas Meme
Esther tagged me for this fun Christmas Meme. 1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? I prefer gift bags because they are so versatile and reusable. 2. Real tree or artificial? I love real trees, but I'm allergic to them, so we have a fiber optic tree, which is really beautiful. 3. When do you put up the tree? It varies every year, but usually some time in December during the Advent season. 4. When do you take the tree down? Usually right after Epiphany 5. Do you like eggnog? I like most eggnog -- homemade is the best. 6. Favorite gift received as a child? It's a tie between a typewriter and a small baking oven. 7. Do you have a Nativity scene? Yes, one outdoors and two indoors. Of the two that are indoors, one is made of olive wood and came to us from Bethlehem (a present from a friend who lived there); the other has more figures and was created for us by another talented friend. Both are precious to us. 8. Hardest person to buy for? I usually don't buy many gifts, but bake them....
