Question Of The Day
New Question: What is your favorite warm beverage?
Tea with honey or a warm apple cider
Green tea with lemon or hot chocolate with lots of whip cream
During this season, hot chocolate with peppermint Kahlua and of course whip cream!
Green Tea or Hot Chocolate for me.
yeah, tea is the best, I'm addicted to it
I was too for a time. But oddly have not had any this year. Which is weird.

I love coffee with some kahlua. I also can go to town on some peppermint tea.

Tea on a regular basis (usually black teas. here in the states i get british blend, oolong, irish breakfast tea). But this is also my fav time of year for hot cocoa/hot chocolate. As for the fun 'additives' that depends. Any one or combination of: Kahlua, whipped vodka, baileys, cinnamon spice kahlua, chocolate whipped vodka,carmel (or carmel vodka & the like). And of course marshmallows (real or the ones in a container like the ones in the hot cocoa) in either normal or chocolate variety (pending what is mixed in) or whipped cream sometimes sprinkled with cinnamon or a cinnamon/sugar combo.

I love summer becuase it is warm and there are great storms here in the states. And i love watching storms (yes, i am one of 'those' people who would be chasing tornados if i could). But Summer is 2nd to Fall. Not sure really why, but i have always loved the colors of fall, the weather has a nice warmth without being too hot, yet does not get that cold yet. And the smells...bon fires, cider..and by the water really nice. (disclaimer is that i live in the metro Detroit area of Michigan..weather here is kinda like mother nature on PMS but fall is usually the most stable)
mmmm caramel vodka! Love it. I've only ever used the caramel vodka for my apple ciders which are my preferred warm drink during the winter. The only kahlua I've ever tried was the gingerbread one but other than that never had the original or other kinds
I love and appreciate all seasons but if I had to choose an order of my most favorite it would be Fall, Spring, Winter, Summer.
caramel vodka? You guys are giving me some ideas here!
@Valerie, and here I thought I was weird for watching storms. Me&the hubby both do it. It's nothing for us to open the garage and set up chairs and watch the storms come in. So I guess my favorite season is summer!
@ Shari-amor Gingerbread Kahlua?!?!? Oh, now i need to go find that! @Marta - if you have not seen it, check out TVN Weather. They are still doing shows like the storm chaser show from Discovery (it is Reed Timmer that was on that show). And it is nice to know many of us are just as nuts! :-)
mhm its a seasonal item. I tried it at a tasting, very good so I bought a bottle. I use to work for a liquor store so I always know when special items become available :-)
Definitely a Winter person. Yep, I complain that it's cold as hell at times. But love the snow, hot cocoa, hibernation period of a sort.

>.> spring, fall, and sometimes winter as far as weather temps go :I
New Question- Have you ever re-gifted a Christmas gift you didn't like, to someone else?
Not that I can think of... I don't think so... No, I am pretty sure I buy new stuff each time but I could be wrong...
So far I haven't done so either. But I have been tempted to do it with some stuff I've already owned for a while. But never used of course.
No I've never done that before.
MANUELA!!! *HUGS* Hope you enjoy your holiday
Yea, how is your holiday Manuela? Good seeing friends and family after such a long time?
SHARI AND CHERALE!!!! BEAR HUGS BACK TO YOU ~smooches~Holidays are ok. The flight was long, hubby is "sick" and I hang up. We planned a few things and have to reorganize... but I deal with it as it comes. Haven't seen too many yet, but slowly people realize I am home. Have plans for tomorrow...
Sorry to hear your hubby is sick so soon Manuela. But it's good that you guys are still able to make a few plans here and there. Hope he gets better soon and help you bring in Christmas and the New Year right. :)
Manuela!!! I miss you!! HUGS!!!

I mailed yours today! the man at the post office said it would take around a week.
New question: Who would win in a fight: Santa or Ebeneezer Scrooge?
Maybe if Scrooge was played by John Patrick Stewart and the dude that played Marley in there as his right hand. I can see them taking on Santa.
Some realism is alright, I mean you don't want to be so unrealistic that it is hard to relate or follow the story line. I think that the DH series is kind of perfect like that. The normal people seem to have realistic personalities and tendencies while the others have some realism and more unrealistic tendencies. You also wouldn't want it to be predictable. Or at the least these are a portion of my views.
Great answer Sabrina. But a bit lost on what were you answering?
I think she answered the very first QOTD.
Ah, I even forgot all about that one.
I only knew cause as I was getting ready to hit the newest post tab, I noticed the question
My bad. I was on my phone and it only showed me that one so I assumed that was the question.
Its Cool :-) It was still a good answer.
The new question though is who do you think would win in a fight between scrooge and santa clause!?
Scrooge all the way, he would probably beat Santa to death with his cane! What is Santa gonna do? "HoHoHO, that'a not very nice! If your not careful I will only give you coal." Which Scrooge would enjoy considering then he would not have to buy any later.
Hahaha! So true. Love your answer especially that last part
