Topanimbur, atawa karsyof Yerusalem, tumbuhanan melihat seperti bunga matahari ketjil.
Okay. Probably good with a touch of chilipaste.
But it isn't ginger, which I needed.
I feel deceived.
So, obviously, I will need to buy some ginger on my next day off, at the same time as other purchases, because on Christmas and boxing day I do not expect to go veggie shopping, although Stockton Street will probably be bustling with people purchasing groceries.
One or two places may be closed in observance of fat red uncle day (肥紅叔叔節 'fei hong suk suk jit'), or whatever they might call the gifting aspect of the holiday in Cantonese, in which I don't know if there actually is a word for Santa, but fat red uncle seems to fit.
A NON-RELEVANT ILLUSTRATION
How are people without fireplaces and large diameter chimneys even supposed to celebrate Christmas? Texans? The tropic hellhole that is Florida? Are they allowed to do so down there in the Christian nutball heartland? Fat red uncle is clearly pagan, not Christian nationalist.
Personally, I feel that in keeping with their disapproval of everything foreign and idolatrous, the red states should forbid Christmas, because there is far too much non-biblical crap that has crept in. It's just so heathen! Talking snowmen, flying reindeer, eastern mystics, singing hamsters, and so on. Any observation should be about beastly suffering out in substandard housing like Mary and Joseph, no matter how horrible the weather. A few years ago Texas did exactly that, although their leader Ted Cruz went to Cancun instead, because he's a heathen, and I'm sad that so far that that has not really caught on in the red states.
It should. It would be Christian and forbearing.
Very very thoughts and prayers.
Holier than us.
Hosanna.
