Prepping for Christmas

It may be August, but I have to start prepping material to drive my mother-in-law insane at Christmas.

Me: “Toots, explain ‘Christmas Is Coming’. You’ve got a fatted goose. But you’re telling me to put a penny in the old man’s cap? Not even…you’re saying put in half a penny. And if I don’t have half a penny, just say ‘god bless you’? BUT YOU’VE GOT A FATTED GOOSE. At least give the guy part of the drumstick.”

Michael (father-in-law): “You know the Kingston Trio did a version of that song. It’s all about booze.”
