Vow of Silence
At a remote monastery deep in the woods, the monks followed a rigid vow of
silence. This vow could only be broken once a year on Christmas, by one
monk, and the monk could speak only one sentence. One Christmas, Brother
Thomas had his turn to speak and said, "
I love the delightful mashed
potatoes we have every year with the Christmas roast!"
Then he sat down.
Silence ensued for 365 days. The next Christmas, Brother Michael got his
turn, and said, "
I think the mashed potatoes are lumpy and I truly despise
them!"
Once again, silence ensued for 365 days. The following Christmas,
Brother Paul rose and said, "
I am fed up with this constant bickering!"

You can't pick up a magazine without finding a list of holiday eating do's and don'ts. .. eliminate second helpings, high-calorie sauces and cookies made with butter, they say. Fill up on vegetable sticks, they say.
Good grief. Is your favorite childhood memory of Christmas a carrot stick?
I didn't think so. Isn't mine, either. A carrot was something you left for Rudolph. I have my own list of tips for holiday eating. I assure you, if you follow them, you'll be fat and happy. So what if you don't make it to New Year's? Your pants won't fit anymore, anyway. About those carrot sticks. Avoid them.
