Home For The Holidays With Bubbles Von BonBon




What holiday do you celebrate and how do you celebrate it?
I'm a Christmas kind of gal. The method and schedule of celebration tends to vary from year to year, but the one constant has always been my belief that Santa sprinkles good fortune in the form of giving, happy spirits on all of us every Christmas Eve. It's up to us to hold onto that happiness for the rest of the year. And yes...like many magical things, I do believe in Santa....or the spirit of Christmas if you will. I'm just not sure he brings us material things that can be seen.

What is your favorite holiday movie or television show?
"Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer"! Absolute best movie for all things holiday, from decorating and wrapping presents to eating pie and finding mistletoe.


What is your favorite holiday song and who performs your favorite version?
I could listen to "Happy Christmas (War is Over)" all year round. My favorite is the original by John Lennon and Yoko Ono.

What is your favorite holiday beverage, adult or otherwise?
When I was little, I always envied the "special" egg nog my parents would drink. It made them seem so jolly! Now I know why.


What is your most memorable holiday gift?
All of the ones that have been wrapped and given with love.


Are you a gift shaker?
Heck, yes! Unless I suspect by the shape that I could guess the contents. You have to leave a little surprise for opening day.


Do you rip into gifts or open them nicely so you can reuse or save the wrapping paper?
I absolutely adore the sound of ripping paper.


Care to share a holiday horror story?
I think anything that may have seemed horrific at the time has been blurred by holiday lights and love. It's nice to just remember Christmas as being nice.

Home For The Holidays With Miss Cupcake


What holiday do you celebrate and how do you celebrate it?
Christmas.

I usually celebrate Christmas Eve with the in-laws and Christmas day with my side of the family.

When I was little, my sisters and I use to wake up at the butt-crack-of-dawn and go open our stockings and do scratch-off tickets till our parents woke up. My Pop would always make a big Polish breakfast with Kishka & rye, whip up some Bloody Mary's and then he'd sit down to pass out presents to us all. Now a days, it's us waking up in the early morning to pack up our sleeping boys then hauling them to my parents house to keep the Kishka routine alive. I love it.

What is your favorite holiday movie or television show?
That honor would definitely have to go to the 1942 classic, "Holiday Inn". The classic acts & the whole idea of a musical Inn gets me every time. Oh and I'd love to find Bing Crosby underneath my Christmas tree...


What is your favorite holiday song and who performs your favorite version?
"Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree" by Brenda Lee. I listen to it all year long!


What is your favorite holiday beverage, adult or otherwise?
Whiskey Sours and Godiva Hot Chocolate!

What is your most memorable holiday gift?
My easy bake oven. I wish I still had it!


Are you a gift shaker?
No. Just a corner-ripper.


Do you rip into gifts or open them nicely so you can reuse or save the wrapping paper?
Rip it then recycle. Come on now Ladies & Gents!


Care to share a holiday horror story?
I forgot the dessert at home one year! OH THE HORROR!!!!!!

Home For The Holidays With Jai'L Bait


What holiday do you celebrate and how do you celebrate it?
Christmas, my family prepares a great feast to feed us for the rest of the week (no joke) and at midnight we open our presents on Christmas Eve, but that never happens all the time. Its tradition that my older sister and I plot to coax our parents into letting us open presents early.

What is your favorite holiday movie or television show?
"Scrooged" with Bill Murray...It gets me every time. :)

What is your favorite holiday song and who performs your favorite version?
"Making Christmas" from the "Nightmare Before Christmas" Soundtrack. The best version I'd have to say by far was my former Pre-K Class whenever they performed it for their parents.

What is your favorite holiday beverage, adult or otherwise?
Hot Cocoa...Spiked if you like. Kidding

What is your most memorable holiday gift?
My Ipod...It was wrapped with Lollie Bombs flyers!

Are you a gift shaker?
Sure am...Wait till I finally do it to something breakable.

Do you rip into gifts or open them nicely so you can reuse or save the wrapping paper?
Rip into it! I save the bow.

Care to share a holiday horror story?
Whenever I was about 6 years old I received what I had wanted from Santa, a Barbie swimming pool with lights in the pool, slide, and everything a cool pool needs. My niece who was one years old at the time completely destroyed it while I watched in horror. :( Needless to say, I had a major sharing problem after that.

Home For The Holidays with Miss Valerie



What holiday do you celebrate and how do you celebrate it?
I celebrate Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's, Valentine's, St. Patrick's, Easter, Fourth of July and Halloween. Pretty much all the calendar holidays. My favorite holidays would have to be Thanksgiving because I go to El Paso and visit all my cousins & aunts & uncles.

What is your favorite holiday movie or television show?
My favorite holiday movies are for Halloween...Hocus Pocus, Beetlejuice, Addams Family

What is your favorite holiday song and who performs your favorite version?
This is too hard...I love all Christmas songs but I prefer the original artists...I don't really like present day artists and their versions, they feel too pop.

What is your favorite holiday beverage, adult or otherwise?
It's not a holiday beverage but no matter what occasion I'm celebrating I'm making my famous Mexican Martini =)

What is your most memorable holiday gift?
I love getting my stocking for Three Kings Men day...My Mom fills it up with little goodies.

Are you a gift shaker?
Nope, what if it's breakable...

Do you rip into gifts or open them nicely so you can reuse or save the wrapping paper?
I like taking my time to open my gifts so I can feel I still got more to go, but I don't save wrapping paper.

Care to share a holiday horror story?
I can't think of one =(
