    Love a contest! One of the judges looks very gobby, strong opinions I think. Hoping Bix Hardware has some jingly bells for my merry making!

    Will no one adopt as their very own the original, ONE AND ONLY grilled-dairy-themed holiday nickname,”Toasted Cheese?” ???

    I’m pretty sure poppets will be involved in this contest — perhaps dressed as snowflakes, standing cannily in front of Ken’s?

    WILL NO ONE adopt that most singular of holiday nicknames, the adorable and (yes) unfathomable “Toasted Cheese?” ???

      You are right of course, ELF. It would be a big responsibility to fill that honor.
