delivering.

Standard

when you invite a man in a red suit and a pack of flying reindeer into your midnight kitchen

it’s not all that surprising, on the morning after, that is doesn’t look exactly how you left it 

 while you did put the coffee pod out as a option as needed

you don’t remember putting the bailey’s out for a shot

but i am pretty sure they had a good time on their stop

 and were happy for a little pick me up

before heading out to finish their deliveries

on their busiest night of the year. 

“a fellow doesn’t last long on what he has done. he has to keep on delivering.”

-carl hubbell

love in action.

Standard

and this year

santa and his crew will even have plate decorations

and a keuring cup

in case they’re cold and in need of a cup of coffee.

“christmas, my child, is love in action.”

only 30 more.

“to celebrate a festival means;

to live out, for some special occasion and in an uncommon manner

the universal assent to the world as a whole.”

sharing.

Standard

they told santa that they would

make sure to send some cookies along for mrs. claus,

because he usually gets to all of them

and she doesn’t get any treats.

the note is to make sure that he doesn’t forget to share.

 – happy christmas to all –

“sharing the same meal reaffirms kinship.”

– deng ming-dao
