Yes, the answer is YES. Chocolate...you silly fairy. Yes, the answer is YES. Chocolate throws out all other considerations. :D<br /><br />And as for our new choice... hmmm. This is a hard one, but lately I've been in a Dickinsien mood. So I'll vote for A Christmas Carol. And that's the exact copy I have! It's very cool.

I love the classics, if only be...A Christmas Carol. I love the classics, if only because reading all those big words makes me feel smart. Besides, it's one of the three books Tommy Monson reads each Christmas, which is good enough for me.<br /><br />I missed your cookie poll, but I'm sure you know I would have chosen sugar cookies, especially if there are chocolate chips and candy corns on them in the shape of a jack-o-lantern. I'm also with you on minimizing the chocolate in chocolate chip cookies and I think the best and most appropriate name for said cookies is "Anti-chocolate chip cookies" or "Non-chocolate chip cookies". If you just go with the next most prominent ingredient after taking out the chocolate chips, you could call them Molasses Cookies or Brown Sugar Cookies. But that doesn't sound as yummy as "Anti Chocolate Chip Cookies".MikeShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01873919941047794748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3902531908845941139.post-80157704263057984202011-12-05T20:19:01.696-05:002011-12-05T20:19:01.696-05:00Oh, this is tough. . .

And ahem, I don't see my vote - chocolate chip only because oatmeal raisin wasn't a choice :)<br /><br />OK. Onto the new this vs. that. You've chosen a really hard one because I LOVE the grinch but it is our family tradition to read A Christmas Carol in it's entirety every Christmas Eve, and my family has done it as long as I can remember. Plus, they basically tell the same story. So I vote for The Grinch because it's shorter, much more child friendly, and in Dr. Seuss's unparalleled rhyme :)Susanna Leonard Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17655630528649780363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3902531908845941139.post-73628417195851404262011-12-05T09:55:26.914-05:002011-12-05T09:55:26.914-05:00Despite being in the minority, I am all about suga...Despite being in the minority, I am all about sugar cookies.<br /><br />Christmas Carol for me.Slamdunkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13087161268629251860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3902531908845941139.post-71613102195463784352011-12-05T08:16:50.952-05:002011-12-05T08:16:50.952-05:00Mmmmm.
