Buddy is it?!

Christmas is in 3 days.

How did that happen???

Sure, I've pinned a few Christmas-inspired projects on Pinterest; and I've got vague plans for the day - Breakfast with Dad, Lunch with Mum (the usual) and I've seen approximately one-thousand Elf on the Shelf references in various blogs.

I'm still not entirely prepared for Christmas Day.

And the Elf thing ?!  I don't get it.

What's the point in using a creepy little elf to stage various stunts around the house?

Wouldn't most kids get grounded for doing some of the things this Elf supposedly does? 

I have googled it; looked it up on Wiki and followed a few links on Pinterest.

Maybe it's a Mum thing which I won't understand until I have grown a tiny human and given birth?

The only scenario I found amusing were the 'snow angels' on the kitchen counter made from flour.

But realistically, this could be just as effective with my old friend - Barbie.

If the weird little elf made his way to my house this year, chances are you would capture him in a very similar situation as below.

He seems like he would be a very cooperative drinking buddy.
