It’s that time of year. You know - craziness!

I’ve been shopping for an hour or so every day after work. I’ve almost got everyone taken care of and I am pushing for a final wrap up by Friday night! Yes! Next? Going to do a little baking. Nothing fantastic, not even enough really to hand out to anybody or anything, but enough for some extra goodies laying around the house. The holidays are such a good excuse to gather in the kitchen and throw together some Buckeyes or maybe some fresh orange cranberry muffins. Of course, you have to throw in a batch or two of old fashioned Nestle chocolate chip cookies. Not the rolls-oh-dough you can by, but the kind you make with flour and stuff.

Anyhow, since I’m a sucky online personality at the moment, I thought I’d throw y’all a bone.  I got this little ditty in my email today and it made me giggle. So many are so true! I hope everyone is enjoying their holiday season and all the comes along with it!

Enjoy!

Universal Truths
Triangular sandwiches taste better than square ones.
At the end of every party there is always a girl crying.
One of the most awkward things that can happen in a pub is when your pint-to-toilet cycle gets synchronised with a complete stranger.
You’ve never quite sure whether it’s ok to eat green crisps.
Everyone who grew up in the 80’s has entered the digits 55378008 into a calculator.
Reading when you’re drunk is horrible.
Sharpening a pencil with a knife makes you feel really manly.
You’re never quite sure whether it’s against the law or not to have a fire in your back garden.
Nobody ever dares make cup-a-soup in a bowl.
