\*\*Toothpicks for Xmas. \*\* As a Jew I must say…Christmas is really one of the better hollidays out of the year. I am also a fan of Christmas music. ---

I feel I must explain. I was raised as a Jehovah’s Witness, so we never had Christmas at all when I was a kid. Now it just seems to be a habit to not get together.☹ ---

Hmm…I seem to be the one calling technicalities… I’m gonna go with **No, I’ve never had Christmas with my parents and siblings.** Not all of them, anyhow. Stepfamilies spread out halfway across the country will do that to ya. The holiday planning is excruciating; someone’s always pissed no matter what we do. ---

Aw, I was afraid you would give away all your toothpicks. Thanks for catching up the game, but I’m afraid you have no toothpicks left start Round 3 with. ☹ You can keep answering if you want to though. 🙂 ---
