For this holiday season, my festive reader, I merely give to 12 peppermint mochas 11 dozen cookies 10 sleigh bells ringing 9 trees not lighting 8 knotty reindeer 7 generations of magick 6 panicked elves 5 days until Christmas 4 useless brothers 3 kidnapped Winter Beings 2 competing sleighs 1 evil Warlock And a partridge in a pear tree
