Chinchilla’s Chex Mix Is a Hit at New Year’s Eve Party
Chinchilla’s Chex Mix Is a Hit at New Year’s Eve Party
Frankie the chinchilla was invited to no less than 12 New Year’s Eve parties this year. It’s not that he’s a laugh riot or a great dancer.
“His Chex Mix recipe is to die for,” says Cynthia MacMillain, who was the lucky recipient of Frankie’s “Yes” RSVP. “As soon as people heard Frankie was coming to my party, the guest list tripled. It’s a really good recipe.”

Lab Puppy Resolves to Eat Slower in New Year
Lab Puppy Resolves to Eat Slower in New Year
If there’s one thing Abigail learned in 2012, it’s that scarfing down her bowl of food in seconds flat isn’t always best practice.
“It’s not very polite,” says etiquette expert Carmen Sellick. “There’s also the issue of disappointment when the food disappears so quickly.”
That’s why Abigail has resolved to pace herself in the new year, taking manageable bites and chewing everything thoroughly before swallowing.
“I think she’ll enjoy it more that way,” Sellick adds.

Giraffe Disappointed After ‘Fiscal Cliff’ Talks Flounder
The U.S. Senate’s inability to arrive at a compromise to avert the so-called “Fiscal Cliff” has left one giraffe disappointed.
“Ted’s been moping around ever since the last update came in,” says Ellie Tambor, a source close to the situation. “He’ll check the news, then just gets disgusted. He’s not standing as tall as he used to, that’s for sure.”
