Holly Belle: >Satisfied sigh< Another successful advent calendar.
Well, a couple of hiccups, but overall, a resounding achievement.
Holly Belle: >Grrrr< I forgot about this one.
Mikko and Tyler are overdue for a good talking-to.
Frederick: Holly Belle! Holly Belle! It's here!
Holly Belle: What are you talking about? What's here?
Frederick: Mrs. Claus! Daddy John called the Lego people and
they sent us a replacement prize! We can complete the advent calendar now!
Holly Belle: How delightful! I just knew it would all work out.
Let's put her together and get her on the playmat.
Frederick: You know, I can't quite put my finger on it
but this figure reminds me of someone...
Holly Belle: There, with Santa right where she belongs.
Frederick: Oh! I know! She looks like that presenter on that
British baking show...Prue Leith!
Holly Belle: Don't be ridiculous. Who's Prue Leith?
Frederick: She writes picture books about gracious baking.
I worship her.
Frederick: I can just imagine her judging this girl's Christmas cookies.
Prue says "Your sugar cookies are neat as a pin..."
The Girl says "Thank you, they're in honor of my great-auntie Mabel and
I found the sprinkles in a little Christmas market in Weston-Super-Mare."
Then Prue says "Unfortunately, while they look lovely,
they taste a bit claggy. What a pity."
We hope you enjoyed this year's Advent Adventures.
Gregoropolis will be taking some much-needed time off
and will return in February 2025!
HAPPY NEW YEAR from all of us at GREGOROPOLIS!!

The Lovely Holly Belle and handsome Frederick. The perfect two to check all's in order with the calendar. Good to see Mrs Claus arrived in time to take part.
Who doesn't love a good food picture book, delicious food to admire and then put the book back on the shelf ;)
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all
