I was planning on adding a bonus category related to one of the islands participating in the gift exchange, but since CK and Cora are doing such a fabulous job with that already, I'm going with something a little more personal.. *cackle*

Show me your holiday messes! This can be a mess you made, something you had to clean up (kids or cat mutilate the tree?), or simply something you witnessed (though you'll need to sneak in and plant your username! ;D). It's pretty flexible, but if the connection to "holiday" isn't obvious please explain your thinking in your entry post. :)

Here's my example post to give you an idea of one possible mess: clicky

Note: The winner of this category will receive something extra (TBA) in addition to the gold prize.

We used to do "fryfest" where we'd fry up all kinds of weird foods (I have to say a fried banana is AMAZING) however, we noticed about 2 years ago, that our stomachs didn't like the aftermath of Fryfest so much. So we switched it to Foodfest. This year we made 25 pounds of corned beef and cabbage for the crew. It took two crock pots to do it too! In the end we had no cabbage left and only a small Tupperware container of corned beef! SUCCESS! Also, we did NOT have upset tummies. So that was a bonus! What you see in this picture is the aftermath of two crock pots full of corned beef and cabbage. Corned beef soup (EW) hahahahah!
