Day 6
Animal Crackers are not really crackers, but cookies that were imported to the United States from England in the late 1800s. Barnum's circus-like boxes were designed with a string handle so that they could be hung on a Christmas tree. I'm tempted to go buy a box of "Animal Cookies" to go hang on my tree now. |

I like getting Christmas cards. They are getting really creative nowadays, finding new ways to incorporate pictures and stuff.

Day 1!
IT'S CHRISTMAS TOMORROW! I hope you all have a wondeful holiday! Thanks to those few people who came to this thread periodically. It wasn't as popular as my last countdown, but I still had an amazingly fun time putting it all together! Thanks! |
