I have been tagged--twice. So here are my Christmas quiz answers.
1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Wrapping paper is much more fun.

4. When do you take it down? Usually a week after Christmas.
5. Hot Chocolate or apple cider? Hot chocolate.

9. Easiest person to buy for? My dad. He likes everything—or at least he acts like it.
