Mine is eggnog - I luv that shit!
Yes! I love the parties, decorations, Christmas trees, lights and food and it's the only time of year I bake cookies from scratch. What can I say.....im a sucker for some traditions.
I think I first started questioning the God thing about the same time the Santa myth was revealed, but I tried to/acted like/maybe wanted to not accept that both were myths for several years afterward. Christmas was always fun, still is..... if you leave the religion stuff out of it.... partying with family and friends, tons of good food, gifts, and though I get tired of Christmas music on the radio I still enjoy good choral music and blended voices in those old carols. I go caroling every year with our community theatre's outreach group and also sing in the community chorale... strictly there for the music and to help other folks enjoy the season, hypocrite that I am (call me Janus).
Yes, I have to admit to being a fan of the Saturnalia bush, aka a Christmas tree. This year, I'm making a tree out of stacked books and trimming it with my ornaments that have sentimental meaning. And lights, because who doesn't love twinkling lights?!
