Christmas Chicken!!!

Okay, I know Im a little late in telling this story, but it is so funny, that i had to tell it. So, the day after thanksgiving, Sam and I stayed up all night and waited in line to go shopping with all the other crazy people in the world. Well we got hungry and decided to go to an early breakfast at Denny's. Well since im not much of a breakfast girl, of course i had to get my favorite... Chicken Strips! We were eating and i was being immature and playing with my food. Partly because i was soo tired and delirious. So, i wrapped up a chicken strip to go to snack on later in case i got hungry. Well i forgot that I had it in my purse. (I forgot to mention that we were in LA visiting his family) So this chicken traveled along way.
So , december came and sam and i have an advent calendar that we trade of days giving each other little gifts every day of december. It doesnt even have to cost money, but something creative. I am not much of a comedian but thought it would be so funny to wrap up the chicken strip from our trip and give it to him. It went over really well, and he said that i was the funniest thing ever. But what i didnt know was that the chicken strip was gonna make another appearence. On christmas morning, we were opening presents and we got to our stockings, and i was was taking some really cute earings out of my stocking and then put my hand back inside to only pull out the same chicken strip that i had given him 3 weeks earlier. Only, this time it had eyes, a mouth, and a santa hat glued to it. We have never laughed so hard. I'll never be able to think of chicken strips in the same way.

That's hilarious! It reminds me about my sister-in-law's family would re-gift a pound cake every year for years as a secret santa gift. Nasty. He is a cute little chickie strip.

This story is hilarious!!!! That is such a Sam thing to do. Tape eyes and a santa hat to a piece of food. I just recently started following your blog so I'm reading up on past ones. I couldn't help but comment on this one. Love it! :)
