6. What is your favorite holiday food?
       * penoche, hors devors (family joke - on new years)
7. What will you be hand-crafting for the holidays?
       * I can't tell you.  I am making a girt for someone who might read this.  All thanks to MyLyn.  She has
         some great ideas.
8. What is your favorite holiday movie?
       * Emmet Otter's Jug band Christmas  (classic)
       * Mr. Kruegers Christmas  (just made my kids sit through it, their generation is not easily amused I like  
          was.) 
       * The Chrismas Story (John and I watch this as we get stuff ready christmas eve)

9. Favorite holiday song? (This one is hard)
       * I, of course, love them all.  But I love dancing around the house to Cyndi Laupers "Early Christmas 
          Morning".  We do that after we set up the tree and keep dancing until new years!!!! 
       * The Muppets Christmas with John Denver cd is fabulous.  Maybe I love it so much because that
           is what I listened to  when I was growing up (on a record of course).  The sad thing is I can't find the
          cd this year.  I guess  I have to go get a new one. 

10. Favorite holiday pastime?
      *  I am not quite sure what a holiday pastime is.  But I guess what I ejoy doing at holiday time.  I love
          being with my family and playing games and watching movies and sledding and drinking hot coco and
          eating all the fun holiday treats and shopping and the list could go on and on.  For the past 9 years, the
          kids have danced in Miss Margenes Nutcracker. That is always busy and fun.



Okay, there you have it!!!  I hope I win.  You can do this also if want to win!!!!!  (If you do, I get half!!!!!  ha ha)

I loved reading about your memories of Christmas. It makes a mom smile! I have two John Denver Muppets CD's. You can have one if you can find the right box in storage. I should have brought a copy with me to Latvia! I love it, too!
