Calories

Here's a snippet of the conversation that happened on Johnny and I's most recent video chat

Johnny: "So I found out how many calories are in that soup I told you about."
Nani: "Oh? What's in it?"
J: "Just a cup has 1000 calories!"
N: "Well it's a good thing I'm not scared of calories."
J: "..."
N: "I eat calories for breakfast!"
J: "..."
N: "I eat calories for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!"
J: "..."
N: "And then you know what I do with them? I burn them! Hahahahahaha!"
J: "..."
N: "Baby, why aren't you laughing? I'm hilarious!"
J: "You are so sad."

I thought I was pretty funny, I was laughing my head of and Johnny just shook his head. After all my laughing that made me think of Happy Gilmore and one of my favourite lines...

*Warning, this scene contains mild language. But it's still pretty funny.

How to decorate a ghetto Christmas tree

There are three elements to creating a ghetto Christmas tree:

Laziness, stingy-ness with a dash of creativity.

Step 1. Be too lazy to buy a real tree and too stingy to buy a full-size tree. Heck, be too cheap to buy a tree, period. Just pick up a branch from your back alley. I stole mine from my mother and it was even missing one of the stand legs.

Step 2. Be too cheap to buy real decorations. I have two ornaments on my tree that are actual, real ornaments. Everything else is just made up. Don't have garland or lights? That's okay. Do you have long, necklaces? Those will do. Don't have a Christmas star? Do you have yellow construction paper? That'll work.

Voila! A Ghetto Christmas Tree!

This is my tree. I wish I had a proper camera that worked (hint, hint, Santa) so you could see it in its full, ghetto glory. But alas, this will have to do. Is that a candy necklace you spy? It certainly is! Who said your decorations couldn't be edible?
