This is what happens when we eat too many sweets.

For Christmas, ironically, Sara gave me a beautiful silver Star of David necklace that I attached to my dogtag chain.
Sara: What're you gonna do with all this Jew stuff after you convert to Mormonism?
Me: Well, no offense to the Mormons, but that's not something I ever see myself doing.

I was up until four in the morning on Christmas Day, in part because I went to the Midnight Mass at the cathedral (a few hours after attending Shabbat services at the temple).
Sara: You better not let the Jews find out you went to Midnight Mass.
Me: Oh please, what do you think they're gonna do?
Sara: They won't let you join in all their reindeer games!
Me: [dies laughing] 

On the twelfth day of Christmas, rebecca_in_blue sent to me...

Twelve obituaries drumming

Eleven seasons piping

Ten hurricanes a-leaping

Nine pecans dancing

Eight scattergories a-milking

Seven dreams a-doodling

Six cemeteries a-grieving

Five fre-e-e-ench films

Four boston terriers

Three church bells

Two young actresses

...and a depression in a birkin family.

Get your own Twelve Days:

I know these things are stupid, but I loved the "hurricanes a-leaping" and five French films, and the "depression in a Birkin family" made me burst out laughing. Those Birkins don't need any more depression.
