Santa Snacks

Herb decides that Santa is above the typical Christmas Eve milk and cookies — chocolate nugget bomb cookies to be precise — so he pulls together a bougie spread for ol’ Kris Kringle and his red-nosed companion. Santa is confused by the espresso and Rudolph seems to appreciate the charcuterie board, complete with name cards. I’d love to know where you find Butterkäse cheese on Christmas Eve in Cold Springs, Manitoba but I digress…

Merry Christmas!

Christmas Morning

I’ve been fortunate enough to have lived both of these Christmas mornings. As a kid, I distinctly remember laying in bed, patiently watching each minute pass by in the darkness on my digital clock radio in anticipation of waking my parents up. As a parent – usually staying up half the night – Christmas morning always comes too quickly no matter how long you can get your kids to hold off. Happy Christmas Eve, Planet Joey readers! This is always my favourite day of the holiday season, spent together with family and with palpable excitement and anticipation. Cheers!
