An excellent choice! Christopher Plummer was perfect as the Scrooge that Dickens is struggling to bring to life on the page.

Wow. This gingerbread construction takes the cake - and cuts it!

Bonus round: If you're interested in libations other than whisky, see if you can get your hands on a bottle of Krupnik from Wayward Distillery (based in the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island) - it's thick, spiced mead that tastes like Christmas in a glass. Perfect for this time of year.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. You need to put down the Crown Royal and try some of the good stuff, like Macaloney's Caledonian, Glen Breton, Shelter Point, Great Plains, or Pemberton Valley, then we'll talk about how great Canadian whisky is.

Okay, I'll bite. Alternate theory:

Columbo is not, in fact a Hobbit. Rather, he's one of the two blue wizards who disappeared for a few ages but never actually left Middle Earth, remaining here to fulfill his task of bringing evil-doers to justice in the most annoying way possible.

Fight me! 😂
