The Christmas Tag!

10 questions all about Christmas! Lets go! #christmastag

1. What is your favourite thing about Christmas? 

This is really difficult - I love the days off, the Christmas Dinner, and the trip to pick up the free range Turkey from the local farm including a yummy BBQ cooked bacon roll. But I have a feeling the Reindeer Run for the RNLI might just become my new favourite!

2. What is your favourite make-up look for the festive season?

Plenty of highlight, smokey eye and sparkly nails!

3. Real or Fake tree? 

A few years ago I'd have emphatically said real but having a bouncy young Newfie and one convalescing from orthopaedic surgery at the same time one year made me decide if a tree was going to be knocked over I'd rather it be a lighter fake one! I'm now a bit of a convert as I can pop it up and ignore it for the rest of the season - no watering and no needles stabbing into feet!

4. Giving or receiving presents?

Definitely giving - I love the challenge of finding the perfect present for someone!

5. Do you open your presents in the morning or evening?

Spread out a bit nowadays - a couple in the evening on Christmas Eve, maybe a couple in the morning and then spread out a bit - some while waiting for dinner to cook and some after.

6. Handmade or shop bought Christmas cards?

Do you even have to ask? Handmade every time! This year I'm making 50-60 each featuring my annual Newfie Christmas picture.

7. Favourite Christmas film?

Elf. I was late to the party with this film, only watching it for the first time about 4-5 years ago. I love it.

8. Favourite Christmas food?

I love Christmas dinner in general. Stuffing, sausage meat, turkey, cranberry, roast veg but if I had to commit to one thing it has to be the pigs in blankets.

9. Favourite Christmas gift?

Too hard to choose!

10. What tops your tree?

A sparkly multi coloured star!
