The Philly Grinch causes quite the stir at the Conshohocken Winter Market this season!

2025-12-17

Every who down in who-ville ran for their presents this holiday season at the Conshohocken Winter Market. He snuck up on families, took his fair share of free samples and even crashed the holiday performance of the Plymouth Whitemarsh High School Band!

Matt Donnelly, of eXp Realty, said, "There's always something going down in Conshohocken. And today, we've got the winter market. And we're sponsoring the grinch. He likes to cause trouble here."

The grinch delighted and scared families, took selfies and generally caused quite the ruckus.

The grinch himself summed it up well. "Kids are scared. Parents love me. Dads think I'm crazy. And it's all about the pictures."

Some children were brave enough to take pictures while other hid behind siblings or their parents legs.

Along with 25 vendors, musical performances and snacks, every who down in Conshohocken had a fun time, even with the grinch who proved its never too late to grow a heart.

"My message to the world is to treat people with kindness!"

So even the grinch succumbed to the holiday spirit. For more information on the market and the happenings in Conshohocken, please visit https://www.morethanthecurve.com.

Creamy vanilla pudding, fluffy whipped topping, juicy mandarin oranges, sweet pineapple, and crunchy cookies come together in the kind of Midwestern classic that somehow lands between side dish and dessert. Every spoonful is cool, creamy, fruity, and packed with crisp cookie pieces that soften just enough without disappearing completely. The citrus keeps the mixture bright, the pudding makes it velvety, and those chocolate-striped cookies turn an ordinary bowl of fruit into the one dish everyone recognizes from church suppers and family reunions. It is playful, nostalgic, and exactly the kind of recipe that makes people smile before they even take the first bite.

The One Thing I Always Check Before Buying Cantaloupe

If you ever had trouble picking out a cantaloupe, here is the one thing you should always look for to know you've picked one ready to eat. Melons can be tricky to pick out in the grocery store.

Let me share the one thing I always look for when picking out a cantaloupe that I can buy and take home and enjoy right away.

I Stopped Boiling Corn on the Cob and Did This Instead

For years, boiling corn on the cob meant watching a pot, timing it just right, and still ending up with kernels that were sometimes tough and sometimes mushy. Switching to a slow cooker milk bath solved that problem completely. The corn comes out tender and sweet every time, and the stove stays free for everything else on the menu.

Before You Buy Cucumbers, Here Are 5 Things You Should Know

Before you head to the store to purchase some cucumbers, here are 5 things that you should know. 1. What Types of Cucumbers Can You Find at the Store?. There are 3 main types of cucumbers that you can find in grocery stores these days. The classic cucumber is long, green, mostly straight, but slightly curved. It is what most of us think of first when we think of cucumbers. They have small seeds on the inside that aren't fully developed. If the cucumber had been allowed to continue to grow on the vine, the seeds would be further developed and ready to be the next cucumber.

I stopped making regular tacos after trying this Frito casserole

This casserole has everything you love about tacos, but you get to eat it with a fork, no shells falling apart and no filling ending up on your plate. Layers of refried beans, seasoned beef, melted cheese, and crunchy Fritos come together in one dish, so you get that same bold taco flavor without any of the mess. The Fritos on top and in the middle add a crunch that holds up even after baking.

The Habit That Keeps My Shower Cleaner Longer

Cleaning the shower used to be one of those chores I'd put off for as long as possible. Soap scum would slowly build up, water spots would appear on the glass, and before I knew it, I was spending way more time scrubbing than I wanted to.

Contractor Took $40,000 for Home Repairs... Then Allegedly Built a Baseball Card Collection Instead!

You know, when you hire a contractor, you have certain expectations. Maybe they’ll show up a little late. Maybe they’ll disappear for three days because they’re "waiting on materials." Maybe they'll spend half the day leaning against a truck discussing the weather with another guy who's also apparently on an extended coffee break.

Farmer’s Casserole: My Favorite Make-Ahead Brunch Bake

Some recipes have that instant save-it-for-later feeling, and farmer’s casserole: my favorite make-ahead brunch bake is exactly that kind of comfort-food meal. It has the kind of name that makes you picture real flavor before you even start cooking: hearty, satisfying, and weeknight-friendly, with enough personality to stand out in a busy feed. This is the sort of dish that fits the moments people actually cook for, whether that is a relaxed weekend bite, something easy to bring to the table, or a recipe you want nearby when you need an idea that feels a little more special than the usual routine.

Taxi is a small, scruffy 27-pound Border Terrier/Pug mix (no DNA done) in Massachusetts who’s looking for a forever home after a disappointing turn of events: Taxi was adopted, then returned, not for aggression or “bad behavior,” but simply for barking at daycare. In a recent post, PAWS New England shared Taxi’s story in Taxi’s own words, explaining that busy daycare environments are stressful and bring out loud opinions, even though Taxi is otherwise described as “pretty perfect” at home.

I stopped boiling green beans after making them this way

For years I boiled green beans until they went soft and a little sad. Then I tried them the Southern way, cooked down with bacon and onions, and I have not gone back since. This is the green bean recipe that turns a plain side dish into something people actually ask about at dinner. The bacon grease does all the work, giving the beans a smoky richness that boiling water never could.
