Completely Random

Ok, it's getting pretty close to the Holidays--a good time to bring up a good discussion topic. My sister recently gave me some cookies in this tin:

 

If the picture is a little hard to see I'll attempt to describe it for you. There is an idyllic, typical Christmas scene going on: a barn covered in snow, a starry night, a man and woman dressed warmly carrying presents, and a horse-drawn sleigh. Across the middle of this scene is a cowboy, complete with a lasso, and a giant star. What is happening in this picture? Was the cowboy picked up by aliens in Texas and then beamed down from space someplace in Massachusetts? Does the giant star stand for the lone-star state, or is it the star of Bethlehem? This is extremely confusing to me. Just thought I'd share.

That is so wierd Carly!!! Maybe the cowboy is going for Christmas at the happy couples for dinner, and the star is his hostess present. The lasso is just to catch Santa when he comes down the tree after dinner to eat the cookies in the tin!!! That is it...from an artistic stand point of course.:P Miss ya!! Jenny
