I’ve been baking Snow Balls/Mexican Wedding Cookies for a parent reception at school.� And, as crass as some may find this (Tristan), I couldn’t help but think of this classic holiday skit from Saturday Night Live the entire time I was in the kitchen.� I can already predict a phone call from my horrified mother.� Then again, I run the risk she won’t get the joke at all and wants me to explain it to her.� That would be far worse.
Oh, well.� I’m posting it anyway.

It’s just not the Christmas season until we’ve seen Schweddy Balls on SNL!

Ah, a Christmas classic, and the only reason I forgave Alec Baldwin for that awful phone message to his daughter…
Jules says
Yeah, I still think he’s a smarmy bastard.
Cara says
Hmmm. Thinking I should come back and watch this when there are no kids all around me?? ;)
Elena says
Love this! Thanks for sharing – this made my day. potty humor will never die…
Sue says
Hilarious!!! Particularly the part about explaining it to Mom – you know I’m in the same boat as you there. BTW, those are some of my favorite cookies. Would you share your recipe?
Kathi D says
That is the all-time classic skit!

Ever since I saw this skit, I cannot look at a Rum Ball, Cheese Ball, etc. etc. with a straight face. We were eating Rum Balls while my mom and I were visiting my brother and his wife in Sweden. Of course my brother and I burst out laughing … and we had to hop on the internet to find the skit. My mom kept gasping … and my sister-in-law was probably wondering where she went wrong to have joined such a family … :)
