My goodness, how time flies when you are in a pandemic!
It has been a tradition for many years now - since 2012 or 5773 depending on your calendar- that on each night of Chanukah, I select a gift not to give to my DSIL*.
Our family has had challenges and dark days recently. Perhaps your family has too. During this festival of lights, it is worth it to bring a little light and levity where we can. It's worth continuing a tradition, even if it's silly.
So, a couple nights late, I am offering my traditional gifts-not-given.
On the first night of Chanukah, I did not give to you:
These are slippers that are fully microwavable.
Don't believe me? Look closer!
It says that these are snugglable, huggable, loveable slippers. That are fully microwavable.
So wrong.
I understand that the isolation of the pandemic is getting to all of us, but are we truly driven to snuggling with slippers?
Or are we supposed to eat them?
I am opposed to putting footwear in my cooking appliances. So, no.
On the second night of Chaunkah, I did not give to you:
This is a still shot of the game Potty Racers. It is something of a tradition that for night number 2, I don't buy for you a potty or poop themed gift, such as the shitten, or woods wipe toilet paper (in the same post, although not intended for night 2, I also didn't gift poo-pouri, or the squatty potty).
So here is an appropriately-themed gift for night number 2. This game has a stick man who is boldly building racing porta-potties and propelling them off cliffs and into races - presumably with other portapotty-racers. It has at least FIVE VERSIONS OF THE GAME!
Why did I not-buy this gift for you?
Two reasons (number two, get it?).
1.As far as I can tell, the porta-potties are not poop-propelled. I believe in the Power of Poop.
2.Also as far as I can tell, the game is free. So, I can't buy it.
So there is that.
On the THIRD NIGHT of Chanukah- It's tonight! So- see you tonight!
