The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for December 29, 2013

Yeah, nothing fits because of the ‘dumb holidays’ and not because you made an absolute pig of yourself at every opportunity. Yep, it’s the holidays’ fault for certain.

Gosh, thats too bad, and they were such pretty dresses too!

Good thing they fit in those “Robe-O-Bags”.

Next year she’ll be saying the same thing about the “Robe-O-Bag”….

Just so Jerry and Verl can know, does Victoria’s Secret make a duet “Robe-o-Bag?”

Or Fredrick’s of Hollywood? But back to Burl and Joy, if they gain any more weight, they’ll have to patronize Cristo and Jean-Claude!

Burl is such a romantic isn’t he?

How do they fake confetti?

Look at the bright side: they didn’t go and ruin anyone else’s NYE party!

Jimminy Crickets!! Could it be they actually got a halfway good idea this time, to see out the old, hum-drum, willy-nilly, wishy-washy, find-it infested year ’o 13? Snark! SNARK!!

I think this is the first time EVER!! that I have even remotely agreed with Burl&Joy. Not about the blame the Holidays for weight gain part BUT I’m all for staying home safe and comfortable on NYE.

I totally agree too. The last thing I’d ever want is to go to dinner on ANY holiday. The menus get a pre-fix and are usually sub-par for the place, wait staff is tired and overworked. I don’t need an excuse to eat out at a top-notch place and I usually like to study the menu online in advance to plan just the right meal for the occasion (same as when I cook).

The fake confetti is a nice touch.
