We dropped in on the railroad this morning to drop off some train-shaped gingerbread cookies Tom had baked and some peanut butter-chocolate fudge I had made. On the way back we stopped at Wally World to stock up on necessities in case we get snowed in for part of the week.Issued by The National Weather Service

This afternoon we went with a group of friends to dinner and a performance of Nuncrackers, an entertaining production about a small group of nuns in Hoboken who are putting on a Christmas show on local access cable. It was quite well done and included one Carmelite joke to add to my amusement. The best number was a vocation (recruitment) song-and-dance that turns into a spoof of the Village People's song, In the Navy, re-titled In the Convent. Click on the arrow below to enjoy a fuzzy version.
For those who don't get the cultural reference, the Village People was a disco-era group with members who dressed like a cowboy, an Indian, a construction worker, a cop and a biker, represented in the play by nuns (and one priest) wearing the appropriate headgear.
When we came out of Monk's (the bar/restaurant where this all took place -- named for a monkey, not a priest, though), the snow had started.
Oh, joy!
