It’s Christmas Eve, and you know what that means, right?
It’s the night when the Great Christmas Lobster travels around the world to distribute good things to everyone.
Oh, and cheese straws.

Who goes there? Please leave comments so (An Aries Knows)!
Oh, I wonder what we leave out for the Great Christmas Lobster? 😀
It’s Christmas Eve here, so I’ll wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. All the best for 2010.
Thank you and right back at you!
For this particular Great Christmas Lobster, we could leave out nuts and berries. Also: ice cream.
“Have you been a good krill, or net?”
Every time you pun early in the morning, a kitten cries.
I’m sure they’re feline fine, actually.
That’s a purrrrfectly good statement. What’s wrong with you all?
Ice-cream’s not such a good idea here, although it was cool last night.
He must’ve liked the nuts and berries, because look at what he left. This and and this. *happy smile*
(I think my daughter may have nudged him in the right direction.)
Woohoo! That made me smile BIG TIME. Thank you. I hope you enjoy them. =)
drawn butter?
Poor Great Christmas Lobster! The sight of that may have given him indigestion. ;D
Giggle.
If you catch the Christmas lobster, I bet you’d make one jolly lobster roll.
Merry Christmas.!
There are so many possible responses to this that the circuitry in my brain just overloaded.
Oh, so it IS your fault our wiring caught fire last night… good thing you have bacon and coffee to make up for it.
It was a diversion, at least—hey, look! Sparkly vampire!
Where do you kids find these hats?
The Bluefly Accessories Wall.
hahaha An answer for everything!
Also known as “a smart ass.”
My dogs are happy that I don’t have any of those hats.
Merry Christmas to all at the Compound!!!
Those hats would make a very sporty summer accessory for a photo shoot. Just sayin’…
Merry Christmas to Compound-Iowa!
Oh Lord, where did that hat come sfrom. LOL Merry Merry to all y’all down at the Compound.
Thank you; back atcha. The ways and means of the Great Christmas Lobster must remain a mystery.
The Christmas lobster looks stoned….
Would that make him a rock lobster?
Good one!
hahahaah! You are in rare form today. Cooking with gas! Quick, write another entry!
The murder of lobster boy …
Just be careful Timothy

See, even I knew how the lobster boy ended up when I wrote my first reply.
Gibsonton is a crazy town
Am I the only one curious about the cheese straws??
What the heck are they?
Oh, man, I LOVE cheese straws.
Two packages of room temperature Cracker Barrel sharp cheddar cheese, grated. One stick of room-temperature butter. Two cups all-purpose flour.
Knead all ingredients together and season with red pepper (start light, add to taste, and remember, they’ll be hotter when baked, so don’t overdo it). Using the star on a cookie press, push out in long rows onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350 for between eight and twelve minutes (ovens vary). Bottoms should be lightly brown, and after cheese straws cool, they should be slightly crispy. Break into three- to four-inch sections, and watch people devour them.
And then the Great Christmas Lobster is boiled alive … or is that boiled until dead and served with cheese straws.
Noooooooooooo. The Great Christmas Lobster will be back next year!
Yes, Becky, there is a Great Christmas Lobster. He exists as certainly as Hump Days and puppies and cheese straws exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Great Christmas Lobsters. It would be as dreary as if there were no Beckys. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance, no Coventrys, no TJBs to make tolerable this existence. Not believe in the Great Christmas Lobster! You might as well not believe in fairies!
No Great Christmas Lobster! Thank God! he lives, and he lives forever. A thousand years from now, Becky, nay, ten times ten thousand years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood. Unfortunately, the funny hat won’t last that long.
Merry Christmas Lobster to all, and to all a most happy holiday!
That’s better. 😉
Mall Madless
Maybe it was all this snow, but the mall seemed quite, uh, calm??? this year. It just seemed like an ordinary weekend. The snow in the parking lot and sudden snow-wall-lane-closures and whoops there went my wheel alignment all seemed to make the mall seem very packed. ’twas not!
Re: Mall Madless
I hope it was a good retail season for the economy, but it does seem like there are fewer horror stories than usual about crowds and such.
