All Things Christmas

Christmas Time Is Here
1] Christmas Wrapping - Presents need to be under the tree ASAP but they've yet to be wrapped! Or do you like to put things in bags and throw tissues on and be done? Either way, here's your supplies!
2] Christmas Cookies - Baking of any sort, really. It's time to make some desserts that folks are going to either rant and rave about at gatherings all of next year or you're going to be banished to the "NEVER BAKE AGAIN" corner. Fudge, pies, cookies, cakes, jello salads, puddings, fudge, and brownies. What have we got?
3] Christmas Carols - It's time to go a caroling! Bundle up in your winter best and warmest and warm up your voice as you head to a house to spread Christmas joy! Maybe it's afterward and you're warming up with hot chocolate and soothing your throat.
4] Christmas Decor - Outside? Inside? The tree perhaps or decking the halls? Maybe you're setting up a Christmas village under the tree. Making decorations for your tree in the traditional sense?? Popcorn on a string anyone?
5] Christmas Party - The Christmas music is thumping, the lights are a twinkling, the presents are under the tree and food is on the table. Your party is all set, the punch is maybe spiked, so let's party hard!
6] Christmas Shopping - Shopping for your loved ones is sometimes impossible. What if you're shopping with them in tow? Is it any easier getting their opinions while looking at their possible gift? Are they trying to purchase your gift as well?
7] Other Winter Holidays - Not to clump them together, but I don't want to stereotype the traditions I'm not familiar with! So whether your character celebrates the Solstice/Yule, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or any other winter holiday I'm missing, find a way to enjoy it!
8] HAVE YOUR MISTLETOE - You've wrangled the one you've been eyeing all night long under this parasitic plant. Time to plant one on them while under it. Do they consent to the kissing? If they don't, maybe settle on a handshake! And try not to hit the eggnog too hard if you get rejected...
9] BAH-HUMBUG - Maybe you don't enjoy the festive time of year! Maybe you don't celebrate? You might not have a specific reason why, but it doesn't mean you can't enjoy the snow, the shopping deals and meals.
10] SNOW SNOW SNOW - We're out in the snow, making a snowman. Or snow forts! Or igloos! Maybe you're making an ice sculpture for some kind of contest! Or is it a snowball fight??? Ice skating out on a natural lake or an artificial rink?
11] U G L Y S W E A T E R - Are you going for a theme? The ugliest? The noisiest? The brightest? The most off-Christmas ugly Christmas sweater? Maybe it's a homemade sweater handed down for generations? Let's see your sweater!
12] Wildcard - Decorating gingerbread houses? Hunting down your perfect Christmas tree? Settling down in front of the TV for your favorite Hallmark (or other seasonally appropriate) movie? Are you being someone's Santa and delivering presents?? In costume??? Things that aren't covered above go here, or any other holiday things! Maybe even your character doesn't know what Christmas is! In that case, enjoy the learning experience!!

[Which brings him back to the point at hand.]
No. I don't owe you for anything.

[ Right. Five was saying something. Like denouncing Christmas. ] Don't be such a Scrooge McDuck, man! Yeah, maybe we haven't really done the whole.. Christmas thing before. But! Maybe Christmas is just what we need! Who can say no to an excuse to party?

You have no idea what you're doing, do you?
