Thanks Easter Bunny Bawk Bawk

March 19, 2010

That is one of the few “holiday” commercials that has stuck in my brain throughout the years, the other is the ringing kisses at Christmas.

December 13, 2009

It’s holiday party season – time to celebrate all of the exciting winter holidays with our friends and loved ones.  Our mailboxes are flooded with invitations to parties and dinners and other holiday get-togethers.  With these parties come food, fellowship, gifts, and in many cases, festive alcoholic drinks.
