Thevictorians had a good night at the Christmas Eve Games at the home of my sister the ex-ex-mayor's wife! We brought home a box full of prizes! Of course I have to display them for you. We'll get to the games tomorrow.
We'll start with my own prizes. That baggie to the left of Santa holds come Hershey Kisses, and a nail file and metal fingernail clippers. Then behind it, a bag of Dove Milk Chocolate squares. Behind that is a Gingerbread Man Kitchen Towel. And on the right, a can of long Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies.
Hick won the long Slim Jim sausage. The Dubble Bubble Gum canister. The Crisp Kringles.
The Pony won the most. The Russell Stover Santa that contained 3 chocolates. The Golden Chocolate Coins. The mug of Ghiradelli Hot Chocolate makings. The Antibacterial Gloves, which are washable, and used for cleaning the screens of your electronics. His own can of Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies. And the Peace Love Pot Holder.
I am also giving The Pony half of my Dove Chocolates, since I actually prefer dark chocolate over milk chocolate. And the Gingerbread Man Kitchen Towel, for his Pony House kitchen.
Yes. We were competitive. We had a good night!
A mighty haul!
ReplyDeleteYes, we needed a bag AND a box to carry it out!
DeleteYou guys are the China of the Olympics!
ReplyDeleteYes, yes we are! A powerhouse! Wait a minute... is this a compliment, or an insult, calling us CHYYYY NAAAA!
DeleteI assumed you cheated a little.
DeleteYou know what happens when we ASSuME. I most certainly did not! I've never cheated, because I don't have to. However... I am not so all-powerful that I can prevent a team member from cheating.
DeleteWow, what a haul! You are a good mom, giving the Pony part of your goodies. Is there anything better than giving your kid stuff? Dark Chocolate I like, milk chocolate triggers my gag reflex.
ReplyDeleteThe Pony is very appreciative of the half-gifts I bestow upon him. I like either chocolate, but dark is my favorite.
DeleteYou did extremely well between the three of you. I love the gingerbread kitchen towel. I prefer milk chocolate, but it has to have a decent amount of cocoa in it. The brand I buy has close to 40% I think. I can't check because there is no chocolate in the house at the moment.
ReplyDeleteI bet the gingerbread towel could mesmerize somebody into not even wondering what treat might be hidden under it! Too bad your house is chocolateless at the moment. Somebody must have snuck in and taken it...
