Hohoho...

Merry X'mas yall~! 2day was pretty fun even though so many of us werent actually there. Learned a new phrase - 'CAPTURE'. Lol. Us 'captivating' 'capturewhores' hav 2 let the 'capturers' 'capture' us right? For those who werent there, CAPTURE is a new way of saying camwhore. A very stupid way 2 say it actually, but it just grew on us. Hahaha!

Anyway, i saw this Christmas info on the MSN homepage.. Thought i'd share it with u guys & girls. I luv readin interesting facts :-

Mistletoe Kissing
Remember the following Norse fable the next time you sneak a smooch under the mistletoe: Frigga, goddess of love and beauty, wanted to make the world safe for her son, Balder. Everything on earth promised to do him no harm except the one plant Frigga overlooked, mistletoe. Loki, an evil spirit, made an arrow from the mistletoe's wood and killed Balder. Frigga's tears became the plant's white berries and revived her son. In her gratitude, Frigga promised to kiss anyone who passed under the mistletoe, just as we do today.

Candy Canes
The striped confections we now love to crunch were once straight white sticks of sugar candy. In the 1600s, in Cologne, Germany, traditional folktales reveal that the candies were bent at the end to remind children of a shepherd's crook and to keep them quiet in church.


That's it for now.. Hugs & kisses XOXO
