And so finally, at long last, the 12th Day of Blogmas draws to an end.
Here are 12 Drummers Drumming ... plus a lagniappe, because I like you.
And now I need to get some sleep; we're leaving in about five hours.
Merry Christmas, Internet.
Well done...
ReplyDeleteMerry Poppy.
You did this as a very special gift to Joke, didn't you? I mean, with his favorite carol and all.
ReplyDeleteWhich one's the lagniappe? Animal? Gilligan? Micky? Ringo?
ReplyDeleteThanks for two Ringos in three days. I'll always be a Ringo girl.
If you get, like, 400 comments from me here it's all Blogger's fault.
Very well done, indeed.
ReplyDeleteDid you watch Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story? New Year's Day was a rainy Monday, and I couldn't resist.
And then to see her, first thing among your drummers... wow! Makes me feel so... Laaaaaa, la, la, la, laaaaa... Close to You...
Sarah: Don't forget the little kid from the Partridge Family! But really, I think the lagniappe is Animal.
ReplyDeleteSuzanne: Yes! I've seen it! And it's amazing!
Oh, and Badger? It just suggested itself. You know, 12 Days, 12 Drummers, Little Drummer Boy ... that Joke is writhing in agony is just a lagniappe.
ReplyDeleteAnd my word verification? Lagniappe.
OK, kidding about that last one.
