is egg nog a dish? I love it but only drink it at Christmas.

My favorite Christmas cookie/dessert is......

hbcheryl

A really good home made Christmas Cake (with butter on it and a nice cup of tea)

a tradition I miss doing is.......

WellWater

making a number of stops on Christmas Eve.  We used to make stops at 4 different houses to eat and visit with friends and godchildren...all now live out of town and of course kids are all grown.  I sure do miss that.

Christmas wouldn't be the same without.............

badger

snow!  Looks like my little corner of the world will not see a white Christmas this year.  ('course, we'll be in FL where they string lights in the palm trees ... weird)

By this time next year ...

ruthbru

I hope DS will be graduating from college!! He was suppose to be done this spring but has decided to go another semester and pick up a Computer Science minor. No doubt a good idea, but more $$$$$$.........

One thing that I, for sure, want to have done by this time next year is ......

WellWater

have empty shelves in garage and basement (and linen closets, etc).  While we are not hoarders, my husband is a pack-rat and I guess I'm not terribly far behind him although I do go on tangents where I will  get rid of some things of mine not being used, he never gets rid of anything.  It's a goal of mine.

(badger....where in WI are you?  I am in northwest IN so Chicago weather is usually applicable for us and so far no snow being forecast)

When it comes to reading and understanding insurance policies (home, health, car) I am........................

ruthbru

not that good; my DH is in business & 'likes' (or is comforable with anyway) those types of things so I usually refer to him. I really should know more of what is going on in those areas.

When it comes to making investments, I am......

badger

risk-averse.

(WellWater, I am in the SW part of the state so the Madison weather usually applies to us.)

When it comes to saving money, I am ...

Judy67

terrible.

I hope next year...

badger

2012, is not the end of the world as allegedly predicted in the Mayan calendar.

If I had a coupon good anywhere in the world for 50% off any one item, I'd buy a ...

Bernicky

an RV.  Sounds weird but I would kind of like to tool around the continent a la Charles Kuralt - everyone ought to read On The Road.

If I could get someone to really listen and heed a piece of advice it would be...

Suzanne3131

if it came through the window of your car, it's NOT food.

My best talent during the holidays is.... 

ruthbru

keeping everything organized.

My favorite Christmas song is......

Judy67

"Oh Holy Night"

Tomorrow I need to....

kcl65

go to work and mentally prepare myself to go to the mall over the weekend.

My favorite thing to wear at Christmas time...

badger

is a red sweater made by my SIL, with two Christmas trees and a polar bear on it.

The best kind of lazy morning is ...

ruthbru

in the summer: sit on my deck, drink some coffee and read the paper

in the winter: go out to coffee with friends at our favorite coffee/gift shop

I am really hungry for.....

FLwarrior

some good mexican food and maybe even a margarita!

This weekend I will cook or bake...

ruthbru

nothing; because my oven conked out last night, a repairman can't come until Monday, and if he can't fix it, they will have to order one (it is an really old, built in) which won't be here until AFTER Christmas, and I'm getting a bunch of company! ARGH!

If I were at that Mexican restaurant, the entree I would order is.....

badger

huevos rancheros, considering it's 6:20 a.m.

(Ruth, sorry about your oven, what bad timimg!  I hope it can be repaired.)

When something unexpected happens, I ...

Suzanne3131

try to remember to "trust"...and try to imagine that, somehow, it's for the best.

My very best friend.... 

badger

is the man I married.

I'm glad I have the family recipe for ...

FLwarrior

corn casserole!  I almost always eat healthy...but I can make an exception once or twice a year for the "family favorite corn casserole"! 

My favorite family recipe for the holidays is...

badger

green spritz cookies shaped like Christmas trees with glittery sprinkles!

You can never have too much ...

FLwarrior

love

You would like more of...

badger

my tax money going to help regular people instead of politically-connected rich people.

A food that's better raw than cooked is ...

Faith316

spinach.  I MUCH prefer it raw. 

If I could only have one spice in my spice rack, it would be ......

badger

salt

When I can't sleep, I ...

samthornton

a talking gorilla.

One that has a good dress sense

Faith316

(???  I think maybe Sam's response was from a previous page, so I'll go back to badger's post and answer that.)

When I can't sleep, I pray.

The first thing I look at in the Sunday newspaper is ..............
