Madd Max Have A Magic Kookie Exchange

Mimi set up a Christmas Kookie exchange for this Kender Koffee. The run-down:  Mimi - pecan pie cookies, cranberry-lemon bars, baklava / Bloomfield Kenders - white and milk chocolate truffles in all sorts of flavors / Brooklyn Kenders - white chocolate-banana cookies, Turkish delights (Madd's fav) / Chicago Kenders - Rice Krispie treats with chocolate (Max's fav) / Burbank Kenders - macarons.

Then it was time for the magician.  Every Christmas, the Kenders go see a show in Manhattan.  This year, the show came to them.

It was actually very exciting and fun, and some friends were able to be invited - note, Taisie and the Ullucci-Michaels above.

Madd Max Greets The Elf

Normally, the first night that the fam is joined by the Elf, accompanies a mini marshmallow trail to his hiding spot.  This year, the kittens made that challenging, so he arrived with a suitcase of marshmallows.
