Understood the humor behind it....ROFLMAO...........
Me....Not only are cookies left and eaten (with crumbs left behind)....my son decided that we needed to leave something for the reindeer.... so there are pieces of carrots left on the plate too..... he loved the note left by Santa that thanked him for being the first to remember them.... That was a masterscard commercial.....priceless.
I think we did that one year. But it was celery. Anyway, I don't remember getting a thank-you note, but it's funny that kids come up with that!
One thing I never understood - so many bloody cookies. Why didn't Santa bring some up for the reindeer? My dog eats practically anything. I always figured the reindeer would too, and they're the ones really doing the hard work. Santa stays thin, the reindeer get goodies and re-fueled in flight!
