Featured Foods: Goose
The very first song EVER in the history of Steve's 25 Days of Christmas Music was Christmas is Coming by John Denver and The Muppets, posted on December 3, 2001. A primary lyric in that song is "Christmas is Coming/The goose is getting fat", which is perfect for our Culinary Christmas.
Thus, today we present the same song, but performed by a different artist. Yes, Harry Belafonte fans, today is your day! Enjoy this 1971 rendition which is a LOT more reserved than the Muppets version I grew up with.
