BlogFestivus Day 3

On the 3rd Day of Christmas my true love sent to me...

...Three French Hens

Jaysus, I just realised that there are a LOT of fucking birds in the 12 Days of Christmas song!  

Who in their right mind wants all those birds squeaking and squawking all over the place?  I also realised that my 12 Days of Christmas is taking another twist.  It started it off with one thing in mind and now it seems to be developing into something completely different - Talk about always getting distracted!

It has turned into a string of things I'd RATHER have during the 12 Days of Christmas, rather than the actual lyrics in the song.  Brilliant!

So my 3rd day of Christmas will now be turned into three Brontë Sisters : Anne, Emily, and Charlotte Brontë.  I love the Brontë lassies, their books are classic greats, the films are awesome.  They are all so different but yet fierce for the era in which they wrote their stories.

And so the song now grows into:

"Three Brontë Sisters
Two Jimmy Choos 
And Jamie Oliver's Satay Chicken on a Stick"

Remember to stick around for the 12th day when I'll have a wee surprise for the Blogfestivusgoers.  Oh I know you'll be BANGIN it!

Blogfestivus 2nd Day of Christmas and a Shoegasm

On the 2nd Day of Christmas my true love sent to me...

...two turtle doves!

We have loads of Turtle Doves here in South Africa and I call them stupid because they're always getting hit by cars and caught by dometics pets.  I'm convinced that they are fucking half-blind because they're reflexes are so slow and sluggish.  However, the symbol of two turtle doves is apparently a sublime vision of earthly love and friendship.

Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, I love me some earthly love and friendship....yes, something incredibly close to my heart, but I will not be going down that route today. I'll be sticking to my regular run-of-the-mill random crap.

So, instead of two turtle doves I will replace them with something fucking BANGIN, which also comes in pairs....

I have thought good and hard about this and my favourite thing that comes in pairs and that would be shoes, heels in particular.  Twix comes a VERY close second but because it's Friday and I normally do my Friday's Shoegasm feature... 

Anyone who regularly reads my bloggy drivel will know that I'm a complete Shoeoholic and so, this will be my replacement for two Turtle Doves.

So, the song now goes...

"Two Jimmy Choos

And Jamie Oliver's Satay Chicken on a Stick"

BlogFestivus 1st Day of Christmas

It's our favourite festive cumulative song. 

Come on sing it with me y'all...

"On the 1st Day of Christmas my true love sent to meeeeee....A Partridge in a Pear Tree".

Do any of us really know what the fuck a partridge is and what it looks like?

Well, let me first of tell you, she is not a small bird so finding and catching one and puting it in a pretty guilded cage for your sweetheart is not the ideal Christmassy gift. Poor Partridge would be completely circumscribed.  (Not circumcised - that an entirely different blog post).  So, I figured why don't I replace the partridge in a pear tree with a chicken?

Everyone loves chicken, right? I rather have Chicken on a stick than Partridge in a Tree.  Wait!  Wouldn't that a kebab? 

It could be succulently grilled in a scrummy peanut satay sauce.  You know, Thai Style and perhaps served with some spicy stir-fried noodles?

Shite, I got side tracked again.

So the song will now go - sing it with me y'all...

"On the First Day of Christmas my true love sent to me Thai Satay Chicken on a Stick".

Yeah!  That's much better.
