The Swedish Chef How To Pick A Turkey

You can always turn to the Swedish Chef for help picking your Christmas turkey.

In this short video, which I think is from A Muppet Family Christmas, the Swedish Chef measures up his Christmas bird but in the end opts for a "Gobble Gobble Humongous" bird of a different sort...

 

 

Merry Christmas!

Bah, Humbug! A Romantic Comedy Novella eBook

In the hustle and bustle of the season leading up to Christmas I always enjoy reading a Christmas novel. This year, I happened to download Bah, Humbug! by Heather Horrocks.

Bah, Humbug! is a romantic comedy novella. A novella, by the way, is a work of fiction that is shorter than a novel but longer than a novelette.

Think Martha Stewart and you`ll have the leading lady in this book who is a young woman with her own lifestyle television show.   Add a very successful and of course handsome children`s author to the mix and you have the cast of the book Bah, Humbug!

One Amazon customer calls this book, "the cutest Christmas story ever." I agree.

When I downloaded it, it was FREE but I see that the price has gone up by a whopping dollar.  If you are looking for something festive and Christmas-y, Bah, Humbug! is definitely worth the price of admission.

Please note that Bah, Humbug! is only available in eBook form.

Merry Christmas

to you!

A Charlie Brown Christmas Coffee Mug

A Charlie Brown Christmas was the first animated television special based on the Peanuts comic strip by Charles M. Shulz.

The program first aired in 1965 and while I likely did not watch it in 1965, I did watch it almost every year whilst I was growing up.

Nothing, therefore, says Christmas to me more than Charlie Brown and I was impressed when I discovered this handsome Peanuts themed Christmas coffee mug that features Snoopy and Charlie Brown wishing you a Happy Holiday.

Happy Holidays!

M and M Cookies for Christmas

Last year I had some difficulty locating the red and green Christmas colored M&Ms for my Christmas themed M&M cookies so this year I picked them up early when I saw them. However, this year making the cookies is proving even MORE difficult, if you can believe that.

Our kitchen is under renovation. At this very moment the contractor is removing my kitchen floor, all four layers of it.  That means we don't have a stove -- at least one plugged into electricity -- and we won't have one until next Thursday when the new floor will be installed.  After that, it will still be a while before the kitchen is put back together. We'll be waiting on a new countertop, plumbing, etc. but at least I might possibly still be able to put together a batch of these cookies in time for the return of my grown sons for Christmas.

If you're having any trouble finding Christmas colored M&Ms, I've found them right here on Amazon.

Happy
Baking!
