You wish you were this cool

Christmas is super fun- but much like how the Kardashian's nastily insist that the real Santa only comes to their party; I maintain that my family's christmas is way funner than anyone elses. Photographic evidence below.


This is our nativity/menorah diorama. Much like Seth from the OC, we celebrate Chrismukkah. We've been doing it for years but didn't start calling it that till after I saw that one episode of the OC; and we sort of don't actually call it that now; but I'm hoping it will catch on by 2012 at least.


This is our christmas potplant. When we first bought it about seven years ago it was about a foot high* and everyone laughed at it; but now who's laughing , huh? Us. It's us. We're laughing because we're so thrilled about our medium sized tree AND our environmental contribution to the world.


Every year I make a decorative gingerbread sculpture**. Last year was a three story Edwardian mansion with a haunted attic; this year it was Godzilla decimating a snowy cityscape. Unfortunately, he collapsed before the big day, but his memory will live on.

*American measuring units used to confuse me; but now I just rationalize it by thinking about subway sandwiches.***
**That's gingerbread SCULPTURE, not HOUSE. Don't belittle my art.
*** Eat fresh.
