X-mas crime run amok
 

This is may be too upsetting to read:

In keeping with the holiday spirit, from Gävle, Sweden, where the town’s giant Christmas goat (a 40-year tradition) survived its first attack by arsonists (also a 40-year tradition) and remains standing today in Castle Square.
According to news agency reports, since 1966 when the town first erected a 43-foot wood-and-straw goat, the seasonal sculpture has “been hit by flaming arrows, run over by a car and even had its legs cut off” and has made it intact past Christmas Day only 10 times.
A more detailed history from Wikipedia gives the Gävle Goat — apparently a version of the Yule Goat, a traditional Scandinavian Christmas symbol — a survival rate of 42 percent overall, with 13 of 31 goats surviving various assaults, including one last year by attackers dressed as Santa Claus and a gingerbread man.

LOL!!!!!! Not much else to say!

I must have something wrong with me because this made me laugh...I picture some monty python style scene...makes me chuckle:o

Funny stuff!
Did you ever hear of Nisse? He's their gnome that has his sled pulled by, you guessed it...a goat!
Now I have to do a web search for a recipe for the "cookbook". LOL!

I put the recipe in the "cookbook".
I'll definitely try it, cause it sounds like a good way to take care of a kid.
