It's Christmas Time Again

Christmas is a busy time of year for us here at Largely the Truth.  We are driven to eat everything within arm's reach while remaining mobile enough to pick up the phone and command Dan to deliver more.  I'd like to say that the reason we do is that we run a food blog but the sad, simple truth is that we are gluttons.  Handsome gluttons.  Actually this year it seems like Max is watching his girlish figure so the burden of tradition falls on my broad shoulders and I have sworn to Crom that I shall bear it proudly.  The table in our dining room is lined with enough sweets to give Type 2 diabetes to the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man and at our current pace I expect Nicky & I to be bleeding syrup inside a week.  I've always said that for me Christmas is crafted from beautiful lights, music & the people I love rather than gifts & an abundance of food.  While that still holds true I'd be lying if I said the box of Turtles wasn't a happy bonus.
