While at Safeway, I saw this transpire...
Child: "Mom! Dad! We need to make sure we leave out cookies for Santa this year!"
Mom: "Oh, I don't think so. Santa eats so many cookies, maybe we should leave out a carrot stick and some soy milk instead." *looks at her husband and smacks him on his slightly bigger than average belly*
Dad: "Son, do you think we should give Santa cookies or carrots?"
Son: "COOKIES!"
Dad: "Okay then."
The best part is he then just walked around her and grabbed the fudge covered mint oreos.
If it wasn't for the kid I would think you were following me around the grocery store.
ReplyDeletecarrots and soy milk? that's cruel...and a great way to make sure "Santa" will start Christmas day in just a fantastic mood.
ReplyDelete"Santa" at my house gets a piece of buttered French bread and a glass of homemade hard cider!
By the way, the white-chocolate-fudge covered Oreos are really good.
That's awesome. I'll never forget the Christmas mass when our priest announced that when he was a child his parents left a glass of Scotch and an Abba-Zabba for Santa Claus.
ReplyDeleteLol! That is awesome!
ReplyDeleteha ha ha
ReplyDeleteThat's hilarious! Great post! At our house, the boys get to help pick out the goodies for Santa.
