Kentucky Fried Christmas is not for me...

River said...

La Befana loves cleaning and punishing naughty children. Is that two separate things, like cleaning the kitchen and punishing naughty children? Or does she clean the naughty children before punishing them?

John A Hill said...

I've known a few alcoholic witches...

Mike said...

Cloudia - Of course!

Sue - That may have been the strangest one of all.

River - An odd combination to say the least.

John - But that's probably a different post for a later time. 😁

We can always count on you for the straight poop on any conceivable subject.

I've heard of 4 of the 7 traditions -- Catalonia, Iceland, Japan and Italy. Groovy!

I knew about Kentucky Fried Chicken, but the others were new to me.

Mike said...

Bill - Are you going to get one of those guys for your front yard?

Deb - I think you're ahead of the curve by knowing 4.

Kathy - They were ALL new to me.

Martha said...

I've actually heard of a few of these!

Mike said...

Martha - If I knew of them before, I forgot. They were all new to me.
