an excerpt from "this book will save your life" by a.m. homes

(which might be my most favorite book of all time, now.)

"did you know that fudgie the whale is also santa claus? the famous ice-cream cake-- if you turn it around, the whale becomes santa claus; that's genius. right now all i can do is add green to the donuts on st. patrick's day, pink on Valentine's; i can't make a man into a whale."

just had to share that.
