Not Just Pelicans

Tuesday, December 14, 2010

On the second day of Christmas, my penguin gave to me...
Two turtle bars,
And a pelican in a pear tree

I'm a little intriged by turtle bars. They certainly look tasty - no mystery on that front, but as to their name, or any resemblance to turtles...? Not so sure. Maybe something to do with the layers being like a shell, perhaps. Maybe they move slowly, so are easy to catch? Maybe I shouldn't think so much. Maybe I should just admire the turtley goodness...

These ones are even seasonal, with cranberries in...

If you hurry, it shouldn't be too hard to catch a delicious turtle of your very own - unless you're a hare, perhaps...

Penguins love comments - please share your thoughts...
