1. What's your favourite Christmas movie?
It has to be The Grinch. I used to love it as a child, and I still love it! And the older I get, the more I manage to relate to the Grinch more as a person! I did a whole post on my favourite Christmas films if you want to know more about what I love to watch over the holidays.
2. What are your favourite Christmas colours?
I don't really have favourite Christmas colours. I don't even have a normal favourite colour, because it changes all the time! However, I do like the classic red and gold if it's done right (I sound like such a snob, haha). But this year I'm definitely feeling more muted shades, such as these ones from Primark.
3. Do you like to stay in your PJ's or dress up for Christmas?
Every year on Christmas, Father Christmas brings me and my sisters a Christmas Day outfit, so I dress up. But I actually have my Christmas dinner on Boxing Day (don't hate me!), so when I eat my dinner, I'm not wearing that outfit. I tend to dress my top half nicely, and stay in my pyjamas on the bottom half so I can eat all the food I possibly can!
4. If you could buy only one person a Christmas present this year, who would it be?
I think it would have to be my Naini (grandmother). She's the only grandparent I have left, and she deserves to be spoilt. And then I also wouldn't be forced to pick between my parents or my sisters.
5. Do you open your presents Christmas eve or Christmas morning?
I open them on Christmas! Are there actually people who open them on Christmas eve?!? We have a system in my house (we have our weird traditions), where we have a sack in our room that we can open as soon as we wake up. But then we have to have breakfast and clean up before we can open our main presents. And then on top of that, we have to go around one by one opening a present (and when there's six of you, it can take a good while!). So by the time we are done, it's roughly around 2-3pm.
6. Have you ever built a ginger bread house?
No! But I do hope to do one this year and do a blogmas post about it.... I have it planned, I just need to buy the kit first!
7. What do you like to do on your Christmas break?
I love spending as much time as I can with my family. Around Christmas time, we spend a lot of evenings together playing board games, and I actually really enjoy it.
8. Any Christmas wishes?
I've never really thought about Christmas wishes before (apart from when belting out Britney's Only Wish This Year), but I suppose for all my family to be happy..... oh, and for it to snow!
Throwback to Dec 2009
9. Favourite Christmas smells?
I'm one of those people that loves sickly sweet smells. So anything that is sweet, and has a Christmas theme to it. I really like Yankee Candles Christmas Cookies scent!
10. Favourite Christmas meal or treat?
Cheese and crackers, and stollen! There wasn't even a second where I had to think about that! I love cheese , (probably an unusual amount), and then when you get all different types of cheese, and all different flavours and then eat it with crackers, there's nothing better. And stollen is just amazing! I tend to get it from Aldi or Lidl because they're German shops and stock it (and stock it very early on too!).
So now it's my turn to tag people. I have chosen these people because I am completely nosey and would like to know their answers (I'm such a creeper, haha). So, here are the people I'd like to see do this tag:
I still haven't watched the Grinch and feel like I'm missing out lol. Great post and glad to see somebody else who doesn't open anything on Christmas eve!
