My elves inform me that all of the first 15 meals have been delivered, with tidings of comfort and joy. The remaining 15 are packaged and ready to deliver; of course we keep 5 of them to feed my own family. ETA for pickup: 15 minutes. The elves are often a little early though.

Fairytale of New York (this one slaps)


It was Christmas Eve, babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me
"Won't see another one"
And then he sang a song
"The Rare Old Mountain Dew"
I turned my face away
And dreamed about you
Got on a lucky one
Came in eighteen-to-one
I've got a feeling
This year's for me and you
So happy Christmas
I love you, baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true
They've got cars big as bars, they've got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you, it's no place for the old
When you first took my hand on a cold Christmas Eve
You promised me Broadway was waiting for me
You were handsome, you were pretty, queen of New York City
When the band finished playing, they howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging, all the drunks, they were singing
We kissed on a corner, then danced through the night
The boys of the NYPD choir were singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells were ringing out for Christmas Day
You're a bum, you're a punk, you're an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag, you maggot, you cheap, lousy faggot
Happy Christmas, your arse, I pray God it's our last
The boys of the NYPD choir, still singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells are ringing out for Christmas Day
"I could have been someone", well, so could anyone
You took my dreams from me when I first found you
I kept them with me, babe, I put them with my own
Can't make it all alone, I've built my dreams around you
The boys of the NYPD choir, still singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells are ringing out for Christmas Day

Fucking LOVE that song! Love The Pogues at the best of times, but this is one of the most legendary bittersweet Christmas punk anthems of all time. Top notch choice.

I'm full of Christmas pigout and rum and I think it's time for a wee nap. Have a great night everyone, even you Liz!
 
All the meals have been been delivered, the kitchen is cleaned, the elves have been rewarded with a pound of peppermint bark each and tidings of comfort and joy, except for the Pumpkin Elf, who also received 2 pounds of my wife's special fudge for her extra contribution. The Pumpkin Elf made 150 loaves (!) of pumpkin bread this year, donating 30 loaves to us. My wife and I have eaten, and my stepson has made off with his meal, a pound of peppermint bark, and two pounds of fudge as well.

Season stats, Christmas Eve and Christmas:

Made: 60 meals
Delivered: 50 meals
Overall time: 22.5 hours
Number of volunteers: 12, including my wife and I
Total cost: $350 dollars or so (my wife lies lol)

All of the elves volunteer their time and all ingredients are paid for by my wife and I and the Pumpkin Elf. We do not take donations. All recipients are either family or friends of family.

We started 5 years ago with 12 meals on Christmas Eve and 12 meals on Christmas, 8 delivered on each successive day. Every year we add to the recipients list as our families and friends get older. Special Thanks to my stepson, who will take over for us when we move from Donor Class to Recipient Class. I noticed the Pumpkin Elf flirting with him a little bit, so maybe he will be smart enough and smooth enough to close the deal this time, God willing.

A special thanks from me to you, all the posters here at Kiwi Farms, and particularly here in this thread. I really enjoyed posting the Christmas music, and everyone in the kitchen listened to it as well, suggested songs, and voted on which to post next. None of them know about Kiwi Farms really (lol) as I told everyone I was posting to "a friend's group".

God bless you all, even you, Liz. And now that it's all done, I'm posting my final Christmas song for the year, one that I always, always listen to once the work is done and the lights are low.

FEAR: Fuck Christmas


Don't despair,
Just because it's Christmas.
Children, they're
All so gay at Christmas.
All the children on the street
Hope they get something good to eat.
But for me it's not so great.
Fuck Christmas!
Fuck Christmas!
Fuck Christmas!
Fuck Christmas!
Fuck Christmas!
Fuck Christmas!
Fuck Christmas!
Fuck Christmas!
Fuck Christmas!
Fuck Christmas!

God bless you and your cats, Elizabeth. Have fun, post all you want, I'm done for the night. Tomorrow I start Princess of Mars, probably in the afternoon because I intend to sleep in.
