Holiday Girl2Watch#4: Chelsea Staub

Name: Chelsea Staub

Favorite Holiday Television Special: On Christmas Day, I always watch “It’s A Wonderful Life” on TV with my Dad. We always get choked up and try to hide the fact that we’re crying. Usually my dad ends up leaving the room attempting to convince me he’s having an allergy attack.

Favorite Holiday Meal: Christmas morning cinnamon buns. As much as I hate to say it, I’m not a fan of the traditional holiday meal. Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes…they’ve never really whipped my into a tizzy. Plus, their all beige, so they’re not even cute to look at. However, Mom’s fresh out of the oven cinnamon buns are the only thing that can pull me away from the presents. Plus, you can eat them really fast which leaves ample time for unwrapping.

Favorite Holiday Song: “Winter Wonderland.” My family is crazy and at some point during the holidays someone ends up performing in some capacity. There’s piano playing, story-telling, one year my cousin played Christmas carols on his saxophone for like, 5 hours, but the one I remember the most is my Uncle Peter’s rendition of Winter Wonderland; “Walking ‘Round In Women’s Underwear.” Classy and totally keeping with Staub tradition.

Favorite Holiday Tradition: In our house, the kids aren’t allowed to see the Christmas tree until all the adults are in the living room armed with cameras and coffee. I’ve somehow managed to stay in the kids group for 21 years now, it’s totally awesome. Anyway, to keep us occupied, we get to open out stockings in bed. My favorite tradition is sitting with my mom as I rip into the giant sock. My mom always smells amazing on Christmas morning. Total mom smell; fresh perfume and baked goods. It makes me happy just thinking about it.
Favorite Holiday Character: Santa. I love a man who comes bearing gifts.

Best Holiday Gift Tip: Don’t buy a microwave in California as a gift for someone in Arizona. It really takes the joy out of giving when you want to throw it out the window on numerous occasions, but you can’t…because it’s too heavy.

Favorite Way To Spend New Year’s Eve: All the family comes over and we end up putting on our own version of Johnny Carson’s “The Tonight Show.” My Uncle Bob is a radio DJ and he always hosts. My aunts come up with silly commercial jingles and my cousins are the musical acts. One year my Nana dressed up as a pig. I think her stage name was Sally Squat-bottom. Either way I end up embarrassed and really confused, but I love it.
