...really!

Merry Christmas!

Wednesday, 24. December 2008, 12:18:50

Rhymes: done
Presents: almost wrapped.
I'm just putting the finishing touch to the presents before I get properly dressed and leave for this year's Christmas celebration.
It's no surprise that I'm in the midst of last minute wrapping/dressing, but I couldn't possibly leave without wishing all my friends and readers a
Very Merry Christmas!

:sst: ...even though most of you don't celebrate it until tomorrow - or not at all.

:heart:

Dacotah 25. December 2008, 05:07

Zaphira 25. December 2008, 06:46

I didn't think I ate too much either, but I always end up totally stuffed. It's that dessert! :yum:

rose-marie 25. December 2008, 12:05

Stomyr - :lol: Sounds like you had a nice evening!

Mik - If your special sauce really is a traditional julbord, then yes... :eyes:

Feliz Navidad Carlos :happy:. I heard that song yesterday :D.

Zap - Ahhh... The rice porridge. This year we had it with warm strawberries :drool:.

Zaphira 25. December 2008, 12:24

Mmmmm, sounds really delicious! We had it with some special cherry sauce, made of amareno cherries. I liked that a lot! :up:

Furie 25. December 2008, 12:38

I don't think we're talking about the same sauce. :left:

rose-marie 25. December 2008, 12:41

I really hope not! :left:

Furie 25. December 2008, 13:35

Is yours chunky? :left:

rose-marie 25. December 2008, 14:08

Not unless you count strawberries as chunks p:.

Furie 25. December 2008, 14:11

Big red chunks. Just like my sauce. :happy:

rose-marie 25. December 2008, 14:13

But I'm sure the strawberries were much sweeter! :happy:

Furie 25. December 2008, 14:22

Probably. But I'm a big fan of salsa anyway so...

rose-marie 25. December 2008, 19:19

Eeew, not with rice porridge I hope!

Merry Christmas, Marcus! Thanks for the lovely card :D. Santa's got moves!

Hermitess 27. December 2008, 03:17

Merry Christmas a day late!

We didn't have any special sauces but I did dance in a grass skirt & hawaiin shirt. :left:

:rolleyes: don't ask

rose-marie 27. December 2008, 13:23

According to my calendar, it's three days late :eyes:.
But thanks! Hope yours was nice :D.

Oh... and you know I have to ask! :eyes:

Hermitess 28. December 2008, 00:39

Um, it was mandatory party games at my mother in laws. I tried to hide but she sent people to find me. :ninja: oh Yes, she did.
She decided we were having a Hawaiian themed Christmas.

rose-marie 29. December 2008, 12:53

That sounds interesting. What did you have to do?

Hermitess 29. December 2008, 23:01

We had to dress in hawaiin shirts, grass skirts, lais, ect.
We had to make a gift to give to someone.
We had to bring a side dish & dessert.
We played musical chairs, did the chicken dance, had a dance contest, had a costume contest, & the played the dirty Santa game.
We brought nonperishable food for a friend who is having some problems.

AND then we helped clean up the mess when it was over.

:D

gdare 30. December 2008, 05:48

"...the played the dirty Santa game"

I would like to see that, definitely :lol: :lol:

Any photos? :whistle:

rose-marie 30. December 2008, 10:19

Me too :yes:.
I don't know what it is, but it sounds funny p:.

We played a present game. Everybody had to bring a present (or presents) for a specific (symbolic) sum.
The presents are then placed on a table, or on the floor if it's many players, and everybody gathers around.
You then have to roll the dice. Everytime there's a six, the person who rolled it can choose freely from the presents on the table.
But wait - there's more!
When the presents are all gone, it starts all over again.
The person in charge, sets a timer (to a time only he knows. Ours was somewhere between 15-20 minutes) and then it's time to roll the dice again.
Everybody who rolls a six, can now freely steal a present from anybody. You take turns until time runs out.

It's funny to see who the games engages both young and old! :D

Hermitess 30. December 2008, 21:37

The dirty Santa game is very similar to your game Rose!

We put our names in a bowl & put all gifts in the floor. As each name is called that person gets to choose from the gifts on the floor or to steal a gift that has already been opened.

I don't know why the call it dirty Santa. There's nothing dirty going on. ??

rose-marie 31. December 2008, 00:12

I like the name Dirty Santa better than The Present Game :D.

I think the difference is that we didn't open our presents until the game was over.
