BJ’s X-mas This or That Challenge

Fun! Celebration!

I read Linda Ng’s This or That Writing Prompt and it was fun. When she asked me to try it out, I thought “why not?” and I quickly jumped into it.

Here we go,

🎄Christmas Eve or Christmas Day?

Of course, Christmas Day. Love to have fun inviting guests for lunch.

🎅Santa or No Santa?

Santa! My son, even though he says dad is Santa, he still expects presents under the Christmas tree.

🥰 Naughty or Nice?

Mostly known as Nice, but very naughty I believe.

🧋Eggnog or Hot Chocolate?

Mostly strong coffee, but love to enjoy a nice Hot Chocolate sometimes in cold weather.

White for pure, like my heart, mind, and my love.

🍃Peppermint or Cinnamon?

Cinnamon! I love when my husband makes an aromatic concoction of tea along with some other spices too.

Sorry guys! Neither.

👀 Real or Fake?

Of course real. It’s a big challenge if I have to fake.
