I’ve started several books but haven’t finished anything lately. The Spy Who Loved Me, by Ian Fleming is a bit unlike his other Bond books, as this one is written from a woman’s perspective.

2006 G.I.F.T. Challenge

Carl has issued a 2006 G.I.F.T. Challenge.

My choices to review will be:

1. Santa Claus 3: The Escape Clause
2. The Holiday
3. The Christmas Candle by Max Lucado
4. Christmas Letters by Bret Nicholaus
And probably a few othersàâ‚

And on the subject of Christmas, quite a few blogs have been doing a Christmas Tag. Itàâ‚ â„ s been fun to read everyoneàâ‚ â„ s answers.
Christmas Meme:

1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate?
Both, though a little Egg Nog goes a long way.

2. Does Santa wrap presents or just set them under the tree?
His elves wrap them. He knows how to delegate.

3. Colored lights on tree/house or white?
White. Looks much classier. However, I also tend to prefer colored neon signs like the customized ones that can be purchased from websites similar to www.neonfilter.com as a centerpiece in the living room rather than the usual colored lights.

4. Do you hang mistletoe?
I would, but thereàâ‚ â„ s no point this year. Unless I meet someone pretty fast!
