The Christmas Tag

After seeing this meme on Just me, Leah, who found it on Makeup Pixi3, I decided to give it a go.

1. Do you prefer a real Christmas tree or synthetic?.
Synthetic. I’ve only ever had synthetic.

2. You’re in a coffee shop, it’s December, what do you pick?
I don’t tend to go to coffee shops! I noticed as I walked past Gloria Jeans the other day that they had a Christmas ‘Maple Chiller’ which I thought sounded interesting, so probably that. I tend to go for cold/iced drinks.

3. Whats your favourite colour scheme for decorating the tree?
I actually have 3 Christmas trees! They are only small ones they. One is black, one is white, and one is pink. I tend to decorate in jewel tones. Pink, purple, blue, aqua. I’m not really a fan of the red & green look.

4. Giving or receiving?
Giving! Though receiving is fun! I love to give gifts, I like spoiling loved ones, and it’s so great to see my neices & nephews faces when they open their gifts. Oh, and Mr Frodo, he LOVES opening his Christmas presents!

5. To mince pie or not to?
You know, I’ve never had a minced pie. For so many years I thought they were just Christmas party pies, with bits of fruit mixed in, which does not sound appealing. Meat and fruit in a pie? Then someone explained it was just fruit, fruit that had been minced. Ohhh, well that makes more sence. Still can’t bring myself to eat them though, so, NO!

6. What’s your traditional sunday lunch?
Uh, I’m going to go with telling you what the traditional Christmas lunch is. It’s usually at my parents, and we have Ham, Turkey and Pork. Salad, potato salads, basically lots of yummy things! The one year I hosted Christmas it was fresh prawns, ham and a BBQ.

7. Christmas day fashion.
Fancy! I love any excuse to dress up!

8. What’s your favourite Christmas song?
Honestly most Christmas songs shit me. You hear them wayyyy too many times. Thought my favourite by far is Carol of the Bells.

9. What’s your favourite Christmas film?
ELF!

10. Open presents before or after lunch?
Before!! Who waits to after lunch! I’m a wake up and open presents kind of gal!
