Seasonal quote from Through the Looking Glass

[kestrell]

I want one of these as a tree ornament...


"Look on the branch above your head," said the Gnat, "and there you'll find a Snap-Dragon-fly. Its body is made of plum-pudding, its wings of holly-leaves, and its head
is a raisin burning in brandy."
"And what does it live on?" Alice asked, as before.
"Frumenty and mince-pie," the Gnat replied, "and it makes its nest in a Christmas-box."
Lewis Carroll, Through the Looking-Glass

Frumenty sounds vaguely alcoholic, and also tasty
