A Party Gift

Last weekend we went to a party. It's called the Empty Nesters Group. We had a great dinner and we played a little game where you look at the picture clue and figure out the Christmas song it's referring to. I was done in about 4 minutes, not that I'm that smart, it's just that I have that very paper at home and already knew all the answers because of having recently looked at it. So as fast as I could write the answers down, I was finished. I won a box of Junior Mints for getting all the answers correct. Cheryl also got all the answers correct and won a box of Whoppers. She doesn't like Whoppers.
After dinner it was time for the gift exchange. We had been asked to bring a $5 white elephant gift. A lady read "Twas the Night Before Christmas" but added a bundle of left or right words (like "snug right in their beds") and then you pass your gift that direction and when the poem is over, whatever gift you're holding becomes yours.
The gifts were opened one at a time. A nice ornament...a pretty this...a cute that...a festive whatever...and then it was my turn. My box felt very light in weight. I wondered if there was even anything in it, it was so light. When I opened it this is what was inside...

You can imagine my surprise! My first thought was "I hope it's not used!" Everyone was shocked (remember we're just a bunch of old people). Then we all started laughing. It was very funny. The lady that was responsible for giving that priceless gift came up to me after the party and said she was so embarrassed because she thought it was supposed to be a real white elephant type of gift, and could she please give me the gift she was given instead to make up for it? This was the gift she received, along with a pouch of sugar cookie mix. I let her keep the cookie mix and allowed her to give me the cookie plate so she could feel better.

Then I got to thinking about it and remembered I had purchased some things after Christmas a couple years ago (still wrapped in the paper, still in the bag, down in the basement at work) and found these guys. They match!
