It's A Festivus - For The Rest Of Us! || From '14

gingerbread

'Tis the Season for old traditions & I'm resurrecting this from '14 - a nostalgic stroll down memory lane. Some here will remember commenters who've since moved on. And there's been at least one addition - Mimi'73 has morphed into MiMiArt hug ... Enjoy. cheers

Yep! December 23. That most sacrilegious devil and sarcastic tongue of all Holidays (anti-holiday dunno ) has rolled around once again!

This relative newcomer to the Holiday Season was sprung upon an unsuspecting public during a 1997 episode of Seinfeld. Since then, it has gained popularity among the jaded, those fed up with commercialization, seeking to ritualize family dysfunction...or simply looking for yet another reason to party. buddies

Or eat cupcakes. cake

So c'mon, y'all party animals! Set up your Bare Aluminum Festvus Pole (I find tinsel distracting)! Burn the hell out of the traditional Ketchup-Glazed Meatloaf! wink Gather friends & family near to you - for The Airing Of The Grievances very mad very mad very mad very mad Engage one another in the Feats of Strength flex And remember the Festivus Rule - IT AIN'T OVER 'TIL THE HEAD OF THE HOUSE IS PINNED TO THE GROUND! christmas sad

What sort of Festvus Miracles might we expect THIS year? daydream smile:

You know if it weren't for my 2 granddaughters, I could very easily kick back and do nothing laugh That being said, today the 4 yr old and I baked Santa cookies to leave for Santa and we wrapped a few little gifts for mom and dad. I did get a good chuckle though. At her pre-school, they are given the opportunity to go "shopping" for gifts. I can only imagine what are in those little gift bags under the tree. The one that I found particularly amusing was the one she bought for herself. To Penny From Penny laugh
Santa cookies, kp? confused
I figured you'd be baking Da Bear claws.


cheering....wink

And I miss Wallops1964 on the blogs blues

Well, at least I still communicate with her, off CS, periodically. She’s one of the nicest and genuine lady I ever have the fortune to get to know from the blogs.

"Da Bears" claws laugh I wish I knew how to make them. We have a bunch of bakeries jumping on the Bears band wagon - maybe I'll have to go find some laugh They are good!
Will do just that, Mic thumbs up
Making Da Bear claws.
The vid posted above roll eyes explains how, kp!

Experiment with filling 'em with meat/cheese/salsa & sprinkling with salt rather than sugar...goes better with beer drinking at Game Day parties.

idea
Start a bakery & market "ORIGINAL Da Bear Claws"... That'll differentiate yours from inevitable imitations
Do ads/commercials featuring a takeoff on Da Bears Superfans...


(Play down the heart attack routine scold )

You'll get RICH very happy

hmmm

KP - The Queen Of Claws! grin
