How will you celebrate the holidays this year? <\/strong>
\nWe will be at home with lots of family visiting this year. My brother has parked his motor home on the drive. We will no doubt be having fun moving between the house, the festively light gazebo we have put up and the RV. I expect lots of laughter.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the weather currently like where you live? <\/strong>
\nRain of every type, every day, it is cold and miserable but today, this morning we have a window of sunshine. I will plant up the cyclamen I bought yesterday.<\/p>\n

\"Cyclamen\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Do you decorate your home for the holidays? <\/strong>
\nOh yes. I decorate the mantle shelf and around the fire. The large windowsill and a little in the kitchen. I like cream, white or red pillar candles, fresh greenery and various \u2018things\u2019 bought over the years. <\/p>\n

What is your favorite Christmas movie?<\/strong>
\nLove Actually, The Holiday, Polar Express.<\/p>\n

Favorite Christmas Carols? <\/strong>
\nSilent Night, Joy to the World
\n
\nDo you have an advent calendar? <\/strong>
\nYes. I made it for Ben in 1990. I still hang it even though some years now it is empty. This year I have put tags in the days when some thing is happening. When people are arriving or leaving or someone\u2019s birthday. <\/p>\n

\"Calender\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Do you prefer coloured lights or white lights <\/strong>
\nWhite. But this year Ben has put some red berry lights in a large red glass dish: they look lovely. Oh! and there are coloured lights in the gazebo.<\/p>\n


\nWhat is your favorite food to eat over the holidays?<\/strong>
\nNuts and Medjool dates and any kind of shell fish which we tend to have over the New Year weekend<\/p>\n

\"Dates\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"nuts\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Do you display a live tree, or do you prefer fake trees? <\/strong>
\nWe always have a real tree. I buy a broad leaved one and have very little needle drop, and with a beautiful perfume<\/p>\n

What would you need to make your holiday perfect this year?<\/strong>
\nMy family with me.
\nThe flu like symptoms that are with Paul & I to go away,
\nAnd snow for a few days? Well it would kill the bugs? <\/p>\n

\"HoHoHo\"<\/a><\/p>\n
