Last December, I thought I did be festive and hang candy canes all over the Christmas tree. But somewhere between “this looks cute” and “why is the cat climbing the tree,” I learned two things: 1) candy canes are not cat-proof, and 2) I have zero self-control when it comes to minty sugar sticks.
I ate six by noon, accidentally wore one as an earring, and dropped another in my coffee (which, honestly, was delicious). That peppermint-fueled chaos inspired me to unwrap a whole batch of candy cane puns; because if I am going to spiral, it might as well be sweet and striped.
