I'm busy with my usual, "Okay, this year we are definitely cutting back on presents and folderoll associated with Christmas" full frontal assault on crass commercialism.

Sorry, no christmas for some time to come here... First Sinterklaas (Saint Nicholas), and only after December 6th will the Christmas fury break.

But I got one christmas present bought a few months ago already. One needs to be ordered still, and the third I've no idea about yet.

Plans were made in March. We're going to my mother in Hungary.


We don't do "christmas menus". If we were staying at home, we'd most likely be "gourmetten".
oh wow that looks great! long fondue dinners of all varieties are one of my favorites, so I can see why I would like that!

We celebrate Santa Claus -DEC6- that's cool; but then we have to have the turkey w/ the inlaws on DEC25... I HATE CHRISTMAS CELEBRATIONS (phew! feeling better).

You know what ? I just remember, reading these posts, that I made several dreams these last weeks, where I'm at the Christmas Eve, and I've not a single gift for the persons present. Is there a psychoanalyst here ?

I hope he doesn't, because I am too!

That is the upside of it. I really hate all the stuff going into the stores at this time of year, with the exception of the food. especially the cakes and marzipan.

You have a point - this sort of stuff should be in store all year round...

that might prevent me overdosing in the limited window it *is* available.

(actually, i just stockpile it in the fridge. i finished my last box of marzipan from last christmas only a few weeks ago. )
