With razzleberry dressing!

Forgot to mention that our Xmas dinner was pot roast with root veg: carrots, potatoes, parsnips, and beets (all from our farmer's market). Yum.

When I made gravy, the beet juice turned it a lovely scarlet. Yes, it looked like berry juice rather than gravy. Tasted good though.

...which led to the idle thought (not that there are much of other kinds here on this boring day at work): I vaguely remember some cheesy '70s cartoon, maybe a Christmas Carol remake, where there's this whole cute kiddie song about "razzleberry dressing". Anyone know the source?

Frosty the Snowman? Probably not, but you're right...it *does* sound vaguely familiar.

It sounds like something from The Grinch.

razzleberry dressing?

It's not from the Chuck Jones animated How The Grinch Stole Christmas, which is the only one I will admit exists.

I vaguely remember this from the '70s, so it can't be from the unnamed version.

Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol. (Google is a wonderful thing.)

Ya know, I'm kinda scared that a crappy cartoon like Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol made that much of an indent on my brain that the razzleberry dressing song stayed there for 30 years. My wife, too.

OTOH, at least that's all I can remember from it. 8)
