7. Favorite holiday memory as a child? I don't really have a favorite memory but I do have a few memories that stand out. One was when I was about 10- there was a present that I thought was for me and unwrapped- it was a giant stuff hello kitty pillow- I was so excited and then someone said that it was for my 2 year old brother and I felt so embarrased for getting so excited about it. The other was I think an Easter gift that my mom hid in some dish on the mantle, under Easter Graass- I peeked to see what was in there and they were strawberry shortcake figurines- I felt so guilty about that and then had to act surprised when I got them. I really wish I still had those because they would sell good on Ebay.
