Special Holiday Edition of Weird and Wacky


Countdown to Christmas Day 5 features What I am Listening to - A Wild Christmas. A Festive Holiday Recording Composed Entirely of Animal Sounds. 

I can't make this stuff up! Since we've gone wild on this post, might as well add weird and wacky in to the mix. Leading off with an image posted on the Weird Secondhand Finds that need to be Shared. Described as "Thanks to someone's unhinged meemaw, this chaotic masterpiece is now mine for 3 dollars. Thrifted from my local habitat for humanity."




1962 Bing & Grondahl plate is a rock. I am guessing it wasn't a popular issue. 

Popping in the day's vinyl, a record recently obtained $2 at Goodwill. 

Today's recipe from The Ford Times Cookbook (1968), sounds too delicious not to share! 

COFFEE RUM PARFAIT

Pour 1 cup very hot coffee over 10 ounces small marshmallows, mix until almost melted. Mix in 1 ounce dark rum, then fold in 1 cup heavy cream, whipped, and pour into 5 parfait glasses. Let stand 30 minutes, then refrigerate or freeze for several hours. Top with whipped cream. Serves 5. 

This image is from the The Children's Book of Christmas (1922). I am not sure if the compilation was created by the book's author or "Raphael."
