My folks always used to keep hard candy and nuts in the shell around at Christmastime. I liked using the nutcracker (not a toy-soldier one, though) to open the Brazil nuts, almonds and filberts. Not so much the walnuts, since we had a walnut tree in the front yard.

That’s just an excuse for Earl to get out of the house for awhile so he doesn’t have to listen to her whining about Christmas.

If Opal had baked her Christmas treats, this wouldn’t have been necessary.

He’s just doing his best to make her happy. Remember the two most important words in a successful marriage: “Yes, Dear.”
