Thanksgiving: The Almond Prize
Every year I make a fancy rice pudding dish at Thanksgiving. An almond is tossed in, and whoever gets it in their dish wins a special prize. Sometimes the prize is something really great. Sometimes it is something really silly.
Dr. Peds had been saving this year’s prize in his closet for MONTHS.
The Banana scooped up an extra heaping portion of pudding into her dish, and wound up with the almond!
She was so excited.
Then she was so confused when Dr. Peds brought the prize to the table: a hollow chocolate football, that had unfortunately broken apart in the closet during its internment.
There was a lot of laughter.
