You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch

Ah, now THIS is a holiday classic. Who can have Christmas with the Grinch? This song is not only fun, it is full of clever lyrics. That just brightens my day.Growing up, every Friday after Thanksgiving we would decorate the house for Christmas. This would culminate with decorating the downstairs Christmas tree (the one with all the memories), ordering pizza, and watching a Christmas movie (usually the original Grinch, Rudolph, and/or Frosty). This is one of my favorite memories.
Unfortunately, times have changed and my brother and I no longer help with decorating. (You wouldn’t expect us to actually WORK when we were home for a couple of days, would you?) Things changed even more when my parents moved into a new house.
So to end this touching memory I want to leave you with this:
“You’re a three decker saurkraut and toadstool sandwich…with arsenic sauce.”
Now that’s an insult.

Growing up, we would do the same! Although, we usually decorated the tree 2 weeks or so before Christmas…but still the same idea. Decorate the tree and then watch a classic Christmas movie.

That’s funny…Do you like the remade Grinch with Jim Carey?

I do, at least in parts. I’m not a huge Jim Carey fan, but I think they did a good job of bringing the Seuss aspects to life.
