Thought I'd do this and see how really Chrismassy I am!
1. Wrapped gifts or gift bags?
Gift Wrap! Although I probably really suck at it. But I challenge myself every year to see if I can do better. BRING ON THE CHALLENGE 2008!!
2. Christmas Tree--real or fake?
None! Unfortunately I don't know if we even sell real ones around here. And as for a fake tree, well - we're not big celebraters at home so no need for a tree. I tend to celebrate Christmas more with my mates!
3. When do you put your Christmas tree up?
If I had one probably at the Start of December/End of November? Why not?
4. When do you take your Christmas tree down?
Never? Nah, if I had one and decorated it with all my heart - I would try to keep it up as long as possible. Cmon, it's lots of work. Although I reckon mid January I couldn't pull it off! lol
5. Do you like egg nog?
Have never tried it. Care to share?
6. Do you have a nativity scene?
No. Gosh, effort people, effort!!
7. Favourite gift received as a child?
Child? I didn't get anything as a child. Maybe it was 20c to put in those machines that gave out a toy. I kinda remember that. Otherwise, we weren't so rich to buy new toys like kids these days *sigh*
8. Hardest person(s) to buy for?
Family. Parents in particular, but my sister tends to give me the same scenario:
Me: Merry Christmas
X: Why buy this for?
Me: For Christmas, I thought you like/need/hoped for this.
X: How much did it cost?
Me: What does it matter? Don't you like it?
X: Do you still have the receipt.
Me: Another failed present
Always this scenario. Every year without fail. Once I gave a voucher for my sister for Myer and she complained....
9. Easiest person to buy for?
Myself. Because I know what I want. hahahaha.
You know even kids these days are hard to impress.
I really like personalised gifts. Receiving them and giving them. Although not everyone feels the same way.
10. Worst Christmas gift received?
A used bath oil basket. USED.
11. Mail or email Christmas cards?
MAIL! I Love mailed cards. E cards don't make you feel as special.
12. Favourite Christmas movie?
I remember one but I don't know what it's called.
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas?
Not something you wanna know.
14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present?
Nup. I have this fear of the other person finding out. So I just accumulate a lot of crap!
15. Favourite food to eat at Christmas?
Christmas food? There's special food for Christmas?
16. Coloured or clear lights?
I love people decorating with coloured lights. But I am currently in love with the whole White Christmas theme. The blue and the white thing. Much more magical!
17. Angel or star on tree top?
If I had a tree I would prefer a star. Or angel. Whichever is prettier!
18. Open Christmas Eve or Christmas morning?
Morning. And I love making everyone wait. For those that don't celebrate - I make them open on Christmas day MUHAHAHAHAH
19. Do you like fruit cake?
Not really. I don't really like cake itself. Sickening if you eat too much!
20. The most annoying thing about this time of year?
The idea of 'gifts' being the most important thing as opposed to being around friends and family. This year I've organised a day of shopping (which is actually Thursday night) to buy some gifts for the Smith Family at work! I'm so excited! This would have to be the highlight of this Christmas!

what a cute quiz!
That is a really nice thing to do that for the Smith family, when I was a kid in the Brownies we'd collect canned food for them around christmas - really makes you feel good!
Also, thank you for your christmas card! so sweet of you! It's up on our tree shaped christmas card rack :D
I think those garden centres sell less and less of them. I went with a friend last year and they directed her to fake ones in store! Such a shame!
