A fool finds no pleasure in understanding but delights in airing his own opinions. ~ Proverbs 18:2
We invited our South African neighbors to join us as we returned to the Christmas play this morning. They declined in favor of taking advantage of the promised sunshine today. Anyway, we enjoyed the program just as much the second time around, and I asked someone – the cast members are students of the church’s college. They’re not all members, but they do all attend. No wonder they’re able to put on such a wonderful production! It’s part of their curriculum!
And I know you really don’t care, but I want to save it for our later-years perusal. We were able to remember more of T-FROG’s spiel. So skip it if you want, but here’s what we’ve got. And if you choose to read it, remember, his presentation was much more hysterical. 😊
1 hunter in a duck blind. Every time they got to this one, everyone ducked because the elf behind the blind (who wore a beard like the Duck Dynasty guys) was shooting one of those toy pop guns over everyone’s heads.
2 links of boudin
3 Uber drivers – “one showed up on a riding mower, but that’s okay, by the time we returned we’d mowed two lawns and I made 20 bucks!”
4 LSU tickets (to which everyone in the audience cheered and clapped – both shows 😊)
5 pounds de crawfish
6 rounds of charades – “you don’t want to have a heart attack during that game . . .”
7 gold hearts (I have no idea why. Maybe it’s a local thing?)
8 choo choo trains – they broke out into some hip-hop-type song about trains and all the elves and T-FROG started dancing
9 ???
10 ???
11 bags of cracklin – “you know it’s good when the brown paper bag’s all greasy! And the bag’s good for chapped lips!”
12 Saints tickets – he talked a bit about football which we can’t remember, and then he broke out into, “Mamas don’t let your babies grow up to be Cowboys”.
That’s an elf drummer in the right front corner.
That’s where Mrs. Claus would tell the ‘little ones’ aka elves, to turn the pages to the chapter they wanted.
I don’t know what they made it out of, but those huge pages actually turned like a giant book!
After the show, we visited a Park that Blaine discovered on-line. It wasn’t anything particularly special, but we got more than 10,000 steps in, so that’s a great thing!
On our way back home, I counted the billboards erected by a personal injury attorney named Gordon. There were nine along a 15 minute stretch of I-10, but there’s soooo many more! I’d love to know what his budget for advertising is!
After talking with my brother, David today, we decided to forgo boiling our boudin links and grilled them instead. Other than the tough casing, we loved them! The texture reminded us of pulled pork, as opposed to sausage, and they weren’t particularly spicy – – – until we stopped chewing! But it was nothing that a York peppermint patty couldn’t cure. 😊
In the evenings, we’ve mostly been watching various Christmas shows and movies. It’s kinda hard to get into the Christmas Spirit when the weather’s so warm. 😊
