Best ice cream flavor: Ben & Jerry’s Half-baked
Favorite tradition: We started telling scary ghost stories around the Christmas tree years ago (because of the song) and for some reason it stuck. Every year around Christmas time we drink eggnog and eat cookies and tell scary stories by the lights of the tree.
