No-no Lulu eats Christmas
This? This right here is what I was greeted with this afternoon while I was getting my holiday decorating done. (Yes, and by “holiday decorating,” I mean trying to make one of those giant Costco garlands stay on my dang mantle.)
Anyway, that is No-no Lulu’s handiwork. Clearly, she has decided that Christmas will come early [...]
Thanksgiving Leftovers: Attack of the killer yams
