Both, please!
2. Turkey or Ham?
Either is fine, but ham is nice for a change.

8. How do you feel about Christmas movies?
I like ones with a message and I like older ones.
9. When is it too early to start listening to Christmas music?
I've been known to hum or sing Christmas carols any time of year. My mom used to sing O Holy Night so much, that I didn't realize it *was* a Christmas song!
10. Stockings before or after presents?
Usually after because I forget.

Well, presents usually greatly precede dinner. Depending on our singing schedule, we may have Mass to go to, or visiting. DH just likes to relax and "chill".
15. What is your favorite holiday smell?
In spite of my fake fiber optic tree, I do love the smell of fresh pine.
16. Ice skating or walking around the mall?
Realistically, these days, I'd better walk around the mall!

Christmas itself is a favorite memory.

Good, warm, food. Fresh baked bread. Spiced hot apple cider, snow.

I sing O holy night an awful lot too it's so addictive.

Several years ago I was the victim of a "drive-by caroling." A car pulled up in front of my apartment and slammed on the breaks, and a group of teenagers got out quickly and sang the sloppiest, fastest, most apathetic version of "What Child Is This" anyone has ever heard, and then piled back into the car and took off. I don't know who had forced them to go caroling, but I fail to see how any of us benefited from it. ;)
Merry Christmas to you and yours.
