Sharing My World This Week

What traditional Christmas decoration is actually a parasitic plant?

Mistletoe.

Name something about this holiday season (whatever version you may celebrate) that most people like, but you dislike?

Hmm tricky as I like most things about Christmas and the ones I dislike, such as rampant commercialism, most people dislike. In fact, it seems that most people dislike Christmas these days. One thing that I do dislike that many people seem to enjoy is getting drunk at Christmas parties. Mind you that’s not a Christmas thing really. I do enjoy a drink but I don’t get more than a bit light headed. I don’t see the fun in getting blind drunk.

What’s your favorite – or least favorite –  song sung traditionally at this time of year?

I like the traditional  Carols. One of my favourites has always been “Oh Come All Ye Faithful” but I also love to hear the Hallelujah chorus from Handel’s Messiah at this time of year.

And the last one ———>  In the song “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer,” what “incriminating” evidence was found on Grandma’s back?

I don’t actually know this song. I have probably heard it but it’s one of those silly songs that I don’t really pay attention to.

Finally:    What would you like to share with the world, if time or cost were no object?

Peace and prosperity and the joy of Christmas that so many people seem to have lost. It makes me sad to hear so many people complaining about how much they hate this time of year.
