Frito Kid December Christmas Party


Oh my Frito Goodness!  I have been working on these measly 12 monthly party ideas since 2021!  And I still have yet to do the November one.  For those just joining us in this saga, I have a little party book from 1954 featuring the cutie Frito Kid serving up monthly themed fun! I also take a few liberties with the serving suggestions by usually adding as much Frito goodness as possible. 
 Here is the December Christmas party offering:
Santa Claus Cookies
Christmas Tree Cookies
Cocoa with marshmallows

Now you see?! 
Nary a mention of Fritos!
Frito Kid is closing out the last party with not one salty crunchy curly tidbit....well not on my Christmas clock is that going to happen!

Every last morsel is getting the Frito treatment!



Santa cookies .... with crushed Fritos in his beard!



Christmas tree cookies ... with Frito decorations!



Cocoa with marshmallows ... dipped in Fritos!

Now, that may have not been the best idea.  The marshmallows were peppermint and that flavor pairing is one I wouldn't recommend! 

The cookies were some plain premade fancy overpriced shortbreads I got at Target on clearance after Christmas last year and then did the Christmas Party even though the holiday was over.  Christmas kinda lingers and drags its ass all the way to New Years so it wasn't too weird.  I just had to wait for a whole year to post the party on here.  I added the icing to the cookies and it's so good with the salty Fritos!  

Here's all the deets, including the games:




And here is the comprehensive list of all the past parties sans November .... maybe one day! And I bet when that day happens it won't be in November.  You know how there's Christmas in July?  Maybe there should be Thanksgiving in June!
