 | | | | HERE WE GO AGAIN | | Oh God, It’s Elf-On-The-Shelf Time | | | Do you elf? Samm Davidson does, and that means it’s time to gird her loins: “I climb onto a chair and steady myself before opening the upper-cabinet doors and fish through the junk forgotten all the way up there. Finally I spot him — tattered hat, worn lanky appendages, and a small stain on his belly. His eyes are wide and he’s staring at me from the spot he’s been hidden in for the past eleven months. It’s my wonderful, exhausting, controversial felt-made friend — my Elf on the Shelf — and it’s almost time for his yearly debut. Here we freaking go.”
If you’re still deciding whether to start the tradition, she’s got everything you need to know before you commit. And if you’re already committed, she’ll make you laugh in recognition. Good luck and godspeed to those who participate, and just remember: You don’t need to run yourself ragged to make magic.
