Peeled

[Old Codger Steve]

I used to do this myself. Not quite the fangs but peel in the mouth then smile

Thanks for the memory and the chuckle and smirk now on my face

Good way to begin a Saturday 🌄 morning

Ahh Steve that’s lovely to hear! I tried it as an older child and did not like the bitterness of the peel!

Thanks Trudi! You jogged my memory of Santa with his healthy treats. My kids decided Santa gets enough cookies, so they left tangerines 🍊 when they were in elementary school. Christmas morning they were amazed that Santa peeled off the peel in one long spiral 🌀! I’ll never forget the look of amazement in their eyes.

I just asked if they remembered the moment. Nope. Oh well, at least I can still recall it. 😍

[Trudi Nicola]

What a great memory, MamaCarole! ❤️ I still leave tangerines in the Christmas stockings, I believe they represent good health for the year ahead. And I still do stockings. My kids are all adults!! I love Christmas!✨
