This holiday, I sure
jingled my appetite
bells and
had myself a very merry pig-fest for it
was the
most wonderful time of the year! I mean, "everybody knows a turkey (and some mistletoeeee) helps to make a season bright." But what I really wanted, most of all, was to
roast some of my own chestnuts on an open fire (although I eventually had to settle for someone else roasting them for me, instead).
Do you hear what I hear?
