The 12 Blogs of Christmas: Day 10

The Butterscotch Blunder

Mr. Kringle waited, perhaps not so patiently, around for the butterscotch morsels to arrive just three days before Christmas. Finally, at 8 pm, he heard a knock at the door that was sure to be the delivery.

He signed for the package, and although the box appeared to be the right size, its contents were terribly wrong.

Instead of three packages of butterscotch morsels, what he found inside the package was a sea monkey starter kit.

He looked again at the label on the package. It was addressed to his neighbor, Buddy.

Just then, he received a text from Buddy:

Are you by any chance waiting on some butterscotch morsels?

Mr. Kringle breathed a sigh of relief as he grabbed his coat.
