From my overflowing heart…to yours

And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store? What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?

~Dr. Seuss

NOT for the faint of heart…

So…

Just what DOES happen when some teenagers decide to create

some goodies for a holiday party and steal your camera to document said creations?

Ok…I get it

penguins

the little scruffians…

Seem innocent enough…

until

they apparently formed their own little

penguin fight club!

It was a bloody creamy massacre

poor little olive never had a chance.

And then the mice

had to come charging into the picture…

… apparently red dye number 2

has been known to create deformities

Massive deformities...In chocolate mice!

What has our world come to?

what happened to peace on earth?

goodwill to men?

and even broken mice and overly-aggressive penguins

Peace…people…peace.

Ok....Does it count as Christmas…

If one were to plunk some candy canes hand made

in an old pitcher

add a few balls and sprigs

...and call it a day?

Not so much... you say?

oh.

Ok…a little wee Santa too?

Maybe add a teensy wreath...

Or two?

Now...can it count as Christmas?

Not enough yet?

Ok.

How about I take said handmade candy canes…

and offer you this

Aha!

Thought so.

Imbibe.

It’s The Holiday season.

right?
