Redneck 12 Days of Christmas

 

[Persephone]

1.) What's your favorite part(s) about the Holiday Seasons?

I absolutely love Christmas Eve. There is nothing I enjoy more than going out to eat at the same Italian restaurant every year with my family and then coming back, listening to Christmas music, opening one present, and enjoying the fire in the fireplace. It is so peaceful and all about spending time with family. Just thinking about it makes me feel all warm inside 😀

2.) Least favorite?

Having to work the crazy days like Black Friday at work. I really do enjoy helping clueless husbands pick out gifts for their wives, it is so cute. But dealing with crazed customers fighting over bottles of lotion...that I don't like.

3.) How much of your Christmas shopping is done on-line? How much in stores?

About 90% I hate shopping in stores because I have a limitless mall here online and find better deals! 😀

4.) What are some foods you ONLY eat during the Holiday Season?

Eggnog, potato candy, snowball cookies.

5.) As you get older, have you been creating your own traditions or sticking to the ones from your child-hood? What are some of those traditions?

I like to decorate my own little tree, I ALWAYS use multi-colored lights, not just white ones, because I feel it is more festive and cheery. I also always send out Christmas cards! 😀

6.) Do you procrastinate on your gift wrapping or get it all done early on?

I get it done early. Nothing is more fun for me than picking out cute wrapping paper and Christmas cards. My mom used to be one of those people that wrapped presents at the mall so she taught me well XD!

7.) If you had an unlimited budget, what would be one thing you'd get someone special to you?

Send them on a cruise for however long they wanted. They've always wanted to go but never have time or money to do it.

8.) What is your all-time MUST WATCH Holiday Movie?

Home Alone 2. It is a tradition with my sister and I to watch it at least 15 times!

9.) Do you partake in any of the after Holiday sales?

Yes...and I also work one too! Crazy price cuts and deals for sure 😀

10.) Are you able to keep what you got loved ones a secret or do you have a habit of giving it away too soon?

A total secret. No one gets even a hint of what I got for them. They have to wait 😉
