Dec. 8 - The Feast of the Immaculate Conception

Remember the Feast of the Immaculate Conception?  When Santaland gets super busy every year in the middle of the week because Catholics.

It happened again this year.  Shortcake said "Bring on the Catholics!"  And they came.

Of course, it's the time of year when the elves start buckling under the pressure of the schedule - not emotionally, but physically.  It is the week that colds start circulating amongst the elves, and everyone's a little short-slept.  Short-sleeped?  Tired.

Santa thanked Shortcake for always being positive in the morning.  Shortcake attributes this pleasantness to a mug of Earl Grey tea and hot chocolate.

Shortcake took her Spanish homework into the Village to get help from Jinglesnaps while he Ushered.  Jinglesnaps was super helpful and patient, but then Krampus stopped by and gave Shortcake a look.  Shortcake was all "Jinglesnap's is helping me!," and Krampus was all "You're doing your Spanish homework in the Village."  So then Shortcake took her Spanish homework and left.

Peppercorn wore a totally awesome penguin sweater!
