Holiday fudge? Yum! Ummmm
…
Feeling
a bit bulky this Holiday season? Ah … yeah … the fun fudge, extra Christmas cocktails, and full-on four-, eight-, ten-course meals are already beginning to
bulge.
You
mean, you feel a wodge
around your middle?
WODGE (wăj) – n.
(Brit. informal) a chunk or lump of something [an object having a lumpy bulgy
shape – like, I’m feeling kinda wodgey
today].
The
Brits are fun to follow for vocabulary. It’s so much more interesting and
somehow less filling to say you’re a
bit wodgey today, rather than fat or
full, ya know? While we’re munching ...
We
still need to “be good,” as Santa counts our goodness (along with the cookies
we leave him) right up to the last second. We don’t want wodgey coal in our stockings!
(Oh!
well, it might not be coal … ewwww … now
I know why Prancer was prancing on the rooftop! Bad reindeer!)
And
while you’re baking Christmas cookies (stop eating the raw dough!), or grabbing
another from the office buffet table (along with a third glass of champagne),
don’t worry about the calories – at least not yet – that’s what the January sales on exercise equipment and gym
memberships are for!
Here’s
hoping your Season is full of family, friends, and connections that give you
peace and inspire warmth.
That
means for yourself, as well – treat
yourself with love and care. Hearkening back to the good ol’ Sixties, “If it
feels good, do it!” (Within reason, of course.)
Christmas
and Holiday cheers to one and all!
