Life of 'Pie

The animals may be smaller, but I'm still all at sea.

Dave Cooks the Turkey

For some long time now, one story has been my favourite to hear at Christmastime.

It's not any of these classics, though I like to share those with kids.

It's not one of those heartwarming stories that yes, I also love, but not the same way.

It's something that makes me laugh, and reminds me that no matter what mayhem my family might dish out at Christmas, it's not all that bad, and it will pass, and one day, I will laugh about it anyhow. (I do now, by the way, about this story.)

And? It's a Canadian classic.

I can't find a YouTube link of it, and I'm not even 100% positive that this is Stuart Maclean reading it, but this is the best video I could find for it so that I could share it along with you.

Meanwhile, if you want to hear the for-sure Stuart Maclean reading it, you can find that here.

I don't think that it would be Christmas for us without listening to this once. We also have to listen to the one about the school Christmas presentation too - as teachers, we truly appreciate the farce that it becomes. Mind you, I think I could listen to Stuart Mclean read the phone book.

Anon - I didn't think so, but couldn't find video of him anywhere or even an audio player I could embed! Boo.

I have this on my shelf, yet have never read it.

Perhaps I should go and dig it out now? I could use a laugh.
