The Nutcracker: Sweet and Ten Minutes Long

By raincoaster

For those of you who have no idea what we were on about yesterday, here is the Anaheim Ballet’s video of the highlights of the Nutcracker in just under ten minutes. See, I told you there were rats and soldiers and all kinds of macho things, as well as kids, sugarplum fairies, and dancing snowflakes. But how many ballets have rat battles and beheadings, eh? tell me that!

And more to wear to the splendid occasion:

Brooks Brothers camel hair sport coat

I know, I know, it’s the most expensive thing your kid will ever hate to wear, but just gaze upon that sweet, preppy child and try to tell me you don’t want to give him a hug.
And for the young ladies (updated, as we seem to have few fans of sewing):

Velvet Party Dress

    That is such an awesome sport coat! I wish my kids were not growing so fast, so I could justify the cost of something like that.

    The only way to make that work of art practical is to have ten or twelve kids, all one size apart, all boys. There aren’t enough rich Catholics in the country to keep the market for these going, are there?
