enjoying it. It took me a while, but I’m in finals and ladies it hasn’t been

1. What is your favorite thing about Christmas?
My favorite thing about Christmas is seeing everyone so happy! I
really enjoy seeing the pictures of the family reunions, all the food!! In my
country, Christmas season lasts almost until February so I love the music, the
food, las “parrandas” the celebration in general!
2. When you were a kid, what did you leave for
Santa on Christmas Eve?
I used to leave Santa
milk or coke with some cameos, chocolate chip cookies or Oreos!
3. Do you and/or your family have any Christmas
traditions?
Las “parrandas”, “arroz con dulce”, “coquito”, we have a lot
actually! Christmas for Puerto Ricans involve a LOT of traditions and
activities! It is truly amazing! In Christmas is where you can really get to
know our traditions. We are recognize for our Christmases because they are
really long and full of life and joy.
4. When decorating, do you go all out or just do
a small amount of decorating?
My mom actually decorates a lot!! Inside and out, but since my
dad passed away almost two years ago she hasn’t decorated that much! This year
she isn’t going to have a tree so that is really sad!!
5. What is your favorite Christmas dinner food?
Hands down “pasteles”!!!
This is how a Christmas dinner would be like! It is so
delicious!!

I have so many, all the ones that involve some kind of romance!
7. What is your favorite Christmas song?
It is definitely “Santa Baby”.
8. What was your favorite gift you've ever
received?
My favorite gift ever…. That is a tough one! Now that I don’t
have my dad with me, I would have to say that looking back now I really appreciate
my dad’s presence more than material gifts.
9. What is your favorite Christmas memory?
My favorite Christmas memories are the ones that involve my
daddy since he is no longer with me. I remember him always waking me up on
Christmas morning; he was more excited than me by far! It was amazing!!
10.
Does it snow where you
live?
No!! And I suffer each Christmas because of it! I’ve been able
to see the snow, and I love it so much!

"ugly holiday sweater"?
No! Sadly, I don’t even own a pretty one!
