From The Past: December 7, 2006

Here are some of my Christmas favorites:

* My favorite Christmas CD (actually it’s on a cassette) is: Christmas Sing with Frank and Bing. There are many CD’s available with Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby singing together, but not many include the song, Round & Round the Christmas Tree and I do love that song.

* My favorite Christmas movie is: Christmas Vacation. I tried to choose a favorite quote, but couldn’t pin it down to just one. There are too many to pick from!

* My favorite Christmas song is: Do You Hear What I Hear?

* My favorite ornament usually changes from one year to another. My parents will get me an ornament for Christmas. I will bring it home, put it up in the attic with the other ornaments, and forget about it. Then, next Christmas I pull it out and it’s all new to me again. I almost always say, “Oh, I forgot they got me this!”

This is my favorite ornament this year:

It’s a cupcake they bought for me last Christmas at Irish Acres.

* My favorite Christmas book is: Santa’s Toy Shop. As a child, I was fascinated with the pretty pictures in this book. Today, I still believe they are just as pretty.
