1 he day after Christmas is
the day to take back the gifts
that you don't want and
exchange for something you
do want!
The only thing wrong with
this is that you usually hurt
someone’s feelings. After all,
they did take time and thought
in hand to pick that gift for the
little lady, (or as the case may
be). So—if your thinking about
returning that one gift that you
don't know what to do with or
where to put—return that gift
like a thief in the night! Don’t
let anyone see you or know
what your doing. Wear a
disguise if necessary. Give an
alias. Be dam sure and don't
use the real onel Someone will
tell on you before you get
home with the exchange I
The next problem is return-
ing it to the store where it was
purchased. Very few stores
will give you money for the
gift, they will however ex-
change it or give you credit
toward something else. Now if
they returned the money, then
you could use that money to
buy something in a AFTER
CHRISTMAS SALE or JANU-
ARY CLEARANCE SALE
which would enable you to buy
two for one or something like
that! That would also lower the
merchants profit which is how
he makes his living and pays
his employees. Anyhow—if he
gave 'you your money back,
then you could go to another
store or another town and
spend it on something else,
thing else.
If you owned a store, which
policy do you think you would
follow? It would be a safe bet
that very, very few would
return that dollar to be spent
somewhere else I
-D-
If you see my spouse don’t
ask him how he feels about
turkeyl He’ll probably tell
you!
Thursday before Christmas
we had fried turkey breast for
lunch and it was so good that I
thought that I’d try it again for
supper. Now when you serve
hot biscuits, fried turkey
breast, and gravy what else
can you ask for?
After he sat down to the
second meal of turkey that
day, he threatened to go to
town to eat. And promised that
if we served turkey for Christ-
mas he sure as heck would.
Now you know that I try to
please that hard to please
spouse of mine (that is when I
want tol)
So—come Christmas morn-
ing, not a turkey in sight. He
threatened to throw it out if he
found onel Well-folks what is
Christmas without turkey and
dressing—Now being the
smart wife that I claim to be—I
had some turkey ready to slip
into the oven along with the
traditional dressing when he
left the house to go hunting!
The turkey had already been
baked and boned—it only
needed to be stuck in the oven
for a few minutest
Along about noon everyone
started drifting in and lifting
lids to smell and see just what
in the heck was being cooked
for Christmas dinner. They
found hot rolls rising and
ready for the oven, ham, green
beans, candied sweet pota-
toes, fruit salad, brocolli and
rice along with a wide vareity
of salads—but no turfeyl
One of the nieces wondered
in and asked .where they
turkey was and why we
weren’t having turkey I sent
her to her Uncle to ask why.
He promptly told her why
there would be no turkey for
Christmas dinner! She came
back to the kitchen and
carefully explained that she
liked turkey so why weren't we
having turkey. After seeing
that she was about to shed a
tear or two because of no
turkey, I let her in on the
secret that there was indeed
going to be turkey for lunch,
but her Uncle didn’t know it.
The following day we had
Christmas dinner with hts
folks at Castell and guess what
was on the menu? TURKEY!
