Missed it the last two weeks, so here is this week’s Thursday Threesome.
Onesome: Candy canes - Treat of the Christmas season or something you just never got into? (Oh, and “traditional” or with green stripes for the aficionados out there {g}?)
I’m not much into the candy canes for Christmas treats. I prefer the divinity and fudge and such. Hey man, gotta be chocolate!
Twosome: and Peppermint - or cinnamon scented candles and such? Which do you prefer when you walk into a home or business this time of year? …or maybe even fresh evergreen from a real tree?
I have a Glade Wisp that I just got an Apple Cinnamon scent for. It’s pretty holiday smelling. KC is much more into the scented candles than I am.
Threesome: sticks - ..or schtick? ..or even maybe kitsch? Yeah, what is your most un-favorite piece of Christmastime memorabilia? That display at the hardware store? The “Simpsons Nativity”? That ornament you made in third grade that still ends up on the tree each year? Inquiring minds and all that…
What bugs me the most is the way the stores commercialize the whole thing. It’s NOT about the presents or the feasting or the candy or the candles or the tree. It’s about celebrating the birth of our Savior. Stores that get their Christmas stuff out (especially those that get it out in OCTOBER) and push the commercial end of it just sicken me.
