Christmas Dinner at My Friend Maria’s House

Cooked chicken with cranberries, garlic, and sage. Served with yams and asparagus. We told limericks like “Stripper Maria hailed from Madrid. / She’d show us her boobs for a quid. / We gave her the money / And thought it quite funny / ‘Til outflanked by the next highest bid.”
