I haven’t been having the best couple of weeks lately.  But instead of boring you with my disappointment of lack of ninjas readily available to sic on certain people that have been annoying me lately, I figured I would get ‘festive’ instead.  

Christmas is a couple weeks away.  For the first time in a long time I don’t have my shopping done.  I have a feeling that I am going to have to brave the mall later in the month and that really and truly frightens me. 

I think that I am addicted to Gingerbread lattes.  Correction, I have an addiction to Gingerbread anything.  I love this time of year because I can eat gingerbread in excess and not be judged. 

I don’t get egg nog.  Is it raw eggs that you are drinking?  Or are they cooked so you are drinking scrambled eggs?  Neither of those pictures appeals to me.  Unless of course there is dark rum involved then I all happy ho ho for that one. 

Christmas to me is chocolate martinis.  This is a tradition that Millhouse’s grandparents started.  Instead of having egg nog or hot chocolate at their Christmas party the drink of choice is the humble chocolate martini, a whole lot of them.  They give them out in these tiny little shot glasses and the first time I saw them I wondered why they were being so stingy.  But after the first three I found out why they gave them out in the little glasses, those suckers are potent and will knock you on your tail if you’re not careful.    

That’s all the merriment that I can muster for now.  But head over to the Un Mom’s I think she’s got some happy ho ho for you.
