Mmmmm...Balls

Christmas Blue Balls. Booyah.
With Hannukah in full swing and Christmas right around the corner, its only obvious that the only thing on my mind is balls. I mean, when aren't balls on my mind? If you are an SNL fan like myself, balls and Christmas are synonymous with each other. Schweddy Balls that is! And I am not talking about the new Ben and Jerry's ice cream flavor. I am talking about Bill Schweddy's famous balls that first made their debut in 1998 on SNL's "Delicious Dish" skit with Ana Gasteyer and Molly Shannon. On  this special holiday episode they had SNL hosting legend Alec Baldwin as Pete Schweddy.  Since holiday time is, (according to the ladies), where many culinary wishes can come true, they had Pete talk about his own holiday bakery, Season's Eatings. And since it is holiday season, Pete's loves to take out his balls this time of year. One of Pete's specialty's are his old family recipe, Schweddy Balls. So right then and there, Pete whipped out his big, beautiful, tender balls. If you haven't seen this hilarious episode before, it certainly is a classic. There are puns-a-plenty with tons of sexual innuendo. And we can't ignore the ladies' wardrobe as well. The fact that these women and Alec kept a straight face the entire episode just shows what professionals they are.
 (For the full video, click HERE. But since this skit was supposed to be on NPR, maybe the audio was enough. Still hilarious!)

I really just want to wrap my mouth around a Schweddy Ball. Right now. Mmmmm...balls. With that being said, have a Happy Hannukah, Happy Kwanzaa, and Merry Christmas. And please leave Santa something more than tap water and rice.
