So, are we having fun yet?
Those of us who are in the throes of holiday planning -- shopping, wrapping, cleaning, primping, baking, and whatever else needs doing -- are we having fun?
Would you like to play a quick game of "Do Tell?" Here are the questions. I'll leave my answers in the comments section. Will you answer them, too?
- What is your favorite Christmas movie?
- What is your favorite Christmas song?
- Are you dreaming of a white Christmas?
- What is your best crowd-pleaser Christmas recipe?
- What would you love to see under the tree on Christmas morning?
So, are we having fun yet?
