Christmas Survey

I found this cute survey over at The Adams Family blog and I really thought it was cute sooo.... Here are my answers to their survey. It's just for fun!

1.Hot apple cider or hot chocolate?
hot chocolate with a bit of whipped cream and/or marshmallows on top

2.If you could have anything from ONE of the “Twelve days of Christmas,” what would it be?
Well it is 8 MAIDS a milking right? Dude! Bring on the maids!

3.Colored or clear lights on tree/house?
I like the clear but since hubby loves the old school colored and he puts them up, the house has colored and our tree has clear. Marriage is all about compromise right?

4. Name one person (famous or not if you dare) you’d like to find under the mistletoe.
Michael SR, always and forever honey!


5.When do you put your decorations up?
Usually (when we are not doing construction on the house) the first weekend in December.

I love homemade cranberries!


7.What’s your favorite holiday memory as a child?
Waking up and finding my powder blue bike.

8.When and how did you learn the truth about Santa?
What? You mean that he really is lactose intolerant? Yeah, I guess thousands of glasses of milk can make you gassy, especially all in one night. Personally I have the kids leave some hot chocolate instead(made with soy milk). I really only learned that one about 7 years ago. Sorry Santa. :O

Live in Southern California so I just visit it.
