Now not everyone will understand where this question originates from but for those that do & are quick to comment prizes will be awarded!
So Le Magnadillo was in the kitchen talking to Party Parrot, and his new girlfriend Bride and my husband just happened to overhear them.
Le Magnadillo: "Oui! Oui! I do have a famous cousin!!! He is most famous during ze 'Olidays!!"
Party Parrot: "Who is he? Who is he? Who is he? Want a Drink? Ack! Want a Drink? Want a Drink?"
Bride: "Yes do tell darling. I would love to hear about him." (yes she says this sweetly and inches closer to Le Magnadillo)
Le Magnadillo: "Ahhh!! He is the famous.....the amazing.... the magnifique.... HOLIDAY ARMADILLO!!!"
*collective gasps fill my kitchen as my husband continues to eavesdrop*
Bride: "Oh my! I love him!"
Party Parrot: "Holiday Armadillo? Holiday Armadillo? Holiday Armadillo? Who is that?"
Le Magnadillo: "Ce qui! WHAT! You do not know!" He looked around trying to be sure he was not overheard.
*My husband stifles a gasp as he realizes that yes, our Le Magnadillo is related to one of our own favorite holiday icons! He continued to listen to be sure that it was one and the same.*
The Bride waited for Le Magnadillo to continue and the Party Parrot leaned in to learn more.
Le Magnadillo: "Ah...you see my feathery friend, he is most important for your...a Noel... um Christmas. The Holiday Armadillo is Santa's representative for All the Southern States & MEXICO!!!!"
*my husband then decided that he had heard enough and came quickly to tell me of the news*
-------------------------------------
Okay - so tonight I needed a break and seriously the above conversation came from my husband. Well it just so happens that the Holiday Armadillo arrived a few years back and ever since then we have enjoyed stories of Superman, wandering deserts and the Easter Bunny's funeral!
On the spur of the moment I decided that since this particular scenario is in reference to my favorite television show and since I have learned there are many, many, many FRIENDS lovers out here I decided to do a quick contest!
