Ties o’ the Day indicate that my sweet tooth is itching for Christmas candy. I’m craving Mom’s sugary, buttery treats, but peppermint candies will have to suffice. I call peppermint confections Christmas Breaths. People should have Christmas breath all year. Let’s face it, folks: breath mints and deodorant are necessities. They’re part of the social contract that we must fulfill in order to live in peace and tranquility in a civilized society with other beings. In other words, don’t stink around people and ties. 🍬 👃
