Saturday 9: Happy Holidays



From the archives

1. As you can see, when Sam Winters (the blog meme author) was a little girl, she loved giving her annual wish list to Santa. If you could ask Santa for anything at all, right now, what would it be?

A. The things I want are not the things Santa can bring. He can't bring world peace, or end hunger and disease, or stop greed. But he can bring me a box of milk chocolate covered cherries.

2. Are you currently on the Naughty or Nice list? How did you get there?

A. I hope I am on the nice list. To my knowledge, I haven't done anything naughty. I have donated to the local food bank and other charities. I've tried to stop swearing, even.

3. Are you traveling this Christmas? If so, are you going by car, plane or train?

A. I am not traveling.

4. Did you ship any gifts to friends and family this year? If yes, which one traveled the farthest?

A. I sent a gift to my friend in England, but that went via Amazon in England, so I don't know if that counts.

5. Did you buy yourself a gift this year?

A. I did not buy myself a gift this year.

6. Which do you prefer: candy canes or gingerbread?

A. Gingerbread.

7. Can you see any holiday decorations from where you're sitting now?

A. No. They are in the other room.

8. What's your favorite winter beverage?

A. I used to enjoy hot apple cider, back before I had ulcers.

9. Share a memory from last Christmas.

A. Last Christmas I was sick with an ear infection but still managed to carry off the holiday. It was more about the things I found to give than the things I received, although my stepmother did give me my mother's old button box, which I treasure.
