In December I will be a baubled bangled Christmas tree
with soup bowls draped all over me.
Merry once
merry twice
merry chicken soup with rice.
In this month's Chicken Soup With Rice, Maurice Sendak's idea isn't so far-fetched to me. At a museum exhibit of Christmas trees I once saw a fabulous tree laden with dozens of different tea cups. No saucers, just the cups. Picture them tied on to the branches with matching ribbons, and all these interspersed with glass balls of different colors, and lots of little white lights. It was spectacular.
