This Christa-mas, ooops SITSmas card is going out to you Giggle On! and SITS fans early as part of the SITS (Secret is in the Sauce) Merry SITSmas Card Cheer Blitz and prize give-a-way.
[Did I get that right Tiffany and Heather?]
Sending out Christmas cards early is a mahvelous idea!
I call this my Retro Psycho Hallmark Christmas Moment.
Here I am doing my very best impression of Ally Sheedy’s character, Allison Reynolds, from the Breakfast Club, except, I’m the fatter Italian version.
Could I look any more irritated and evil? If looks could kill, he woulda been D.E.A.D.
Why the puss face? What’s the deal-e-o?
My mother gave my brother a box of my favorite spiced wafer cookies for Christmas. My mother did NOT give me a box of cookies.
Why not me Mom? I loved those cookies too. “C” is not just for cookie, it’s for “Christa” and it is good enough for me!!!
Cookie, cookie, cookie, I love “C”.
So…here we have a priceless family moment of pure envy and hatred caught on film.
Hallmark moment, wouldn’t you say?
Before I leave the “cookie incident” of the 80′s behind I beg you all to take note of the the mini pink stockings on the tree, the fuschia balls, the large pink stocking and the pink meshy stuff layered on top of the green garland on the mantel. The skirt around the base of the tree is also PINK and it’s trimmed in lace.
ARGH! I told you my mom had a thing for pink.
Merry Ho Ho and all that jazz to my Giggle On! readers and the sista’s from the SITS family.
I am accepting gifts of Spiced Wafers for Christmas.

I don’t know, but that looks much closer to mauve than pink. ” )
I can’t believe you didn’t get any cookies!! That’s so sad…

Fantastic pic!! I love the way holidays are meant to be this time of ‘being together as a family’ but really… there’s always some kind of disagreement!
Priceless, thx for sharing
I’m not sure if I have anything like that, but I can recall few holidays growing up where it was all peace and love the whole way through!!

I’d pay MONEY to see myself in a picture like that! But we had to pay for film back in the 80s and my parents were very frugal people so alas, I can only live vicariously through people like you.

Boy oh boy, this SITS thing is no joke. I was hesitant to get involved with the site because I really didn’t want a pink icon on my site.
I think I’ve made it pretty clear I HATE PINK.
However, pink can’t be all that bad because the power of pink helped me to expose myself (he, he, he) and Giggle On to all of you. So cool!
Do you think Heather and Tiffany would make a special purple SITS icon for my site?
Can anyone put in a good word for me with them? pulease!
I just got a case of spiced wafer cookies and I am SOOOOOOOO willing to share if you can help me out.
I learned all about sharing on Sesame Street dontcha know…
Merry Christa-mas to all my Gigglers!
Ho Ho Ho!!!

My Big Bro & I have pics like that, too!
Ahhh, The Breakfast Club…one of my favorite movies.
The 80′s Christmas decorations were just…awful!
LOVE your reference to Ferris Bueller’s Day Off at the end. I miss John Hughes films…

The picture didn’t show up on my screen! I’m so bummed! But you had me at Ally Sheedy and Breakfast Club. Oh and pink stocking too. I love pink! Two years ago, the color theme for the year was pink! I loved it, hubby…not so much.
Merry SITSmas!
