Traveling Welcome Wagon
What is your funniest holiday memory? I have shared these before, but it was a long time ago (about a year! lol). One of mine is food related and the other is not.
When my cousin Sandra was a year old she sat in her high chair and ate her first Thanksgiving dinner. She didn't have everything of course, but she enjoyed what she had. She started to get tired and was rubbing her eyes. My aunt cleaned Sandy up and put her to bed for a nap. When she woke up, she rubbed her eye and a dried string of mashed potatoes came out from her eye! She has been (at Thanksgiving at least) "Potato Eye" ever since!
When my sister Diana and I were teenagers we started a silly tradition. I asked her one day (just teasing and not really wanting to know), "What did you get me for Christmas?" She answered, "An aardvark." We started asking each other that every Christmas and birthday, and we would always tell the other we got an aardvark. Then one Christmas when we were around 17 and 15 I found the cutest stuffed aardvark at Sears! The look on Diana's face when she saw "Artie" was priceless!
