This week’s comic guest stars Kate from Spineless Wonders, who won the Movember Giveaway. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as we enjoyed brainstorming it together!
****
And congratulations again to the other giveaway winners Pete, Jackie, and Arrie!
By the way, there is FREE shipping on prints until December 9 at midnight at my society6 shop. Check it out! I just added a lot more prints!
The Middlest Sister 
Totally brilliant.
Thanks! I’m happy with it :D
too funny! Great as always! and thank you again for my great header! :-)
Thank YOU, Jackie! :D
I love your posts; great, great, great, and thanks!
Thank you, Elisabeth!
Ahhh look at your gingerbread banner!!! What a great idea!
CONGRATS to Kate for winning one of THE BEST blogging prizes of all time. Seriously. I would stick a thousand candy canes to my OWN back, and then eat them, for a Nicki masterpiece!
Haha, thanks! I made gingerbread cookies with my daughter this week, and I just couldn’t resist. They were delicious, too, though I felt guilty biting my sisters’ heads off.
Thank you SO much Jules, this is the most amazing prize EVER!!! :D
Great stuff, as usual!
Thank you!
Now that was thoroughly entertaining. Love the ginger girls too.
Thanks and thanks :D
Haha, cute!
Thanks, Rae!
as always — a perfect story done perfectly
Aw, thanks :)
I disagree. I think this story is really good, but I think what makes it funny is people’s imperfections–Kate stuffing all the Christmas cards in one mailbox, and Chrissy sticking pre-licked candy canes on Charlotte’s back, RIGHT as she’s claiming that she’s “been good all year,” so she’s sure Santa will bring her what she wants. If the Middlest Sister (along with the four other sisters on either side of her) was perfect, then it’d be boring.
So jealous of Kate!
I almost feel jealous of myself. ;) It’s totally amazing! :)
:) it needs to be printed out and framed!
Absolutely! :)
Haha, you’re so funny! This made me snort-laugh
:D
ZOMG, THE TARDIS! Soooooooooooooooooo jealous!
SJ, I will make you one for your birthday. The tardis was a lot of work… it needs to be used again :)
I just squealed so loudly.
Heheheheh … more fun with candy canes! Great idea and wonderful execution.
Thanks! Those candy canes were so pesky! The girls’ heads are only the size of my thumbnail, so those candy candy were difficult to work with. But worth it :)
Love it!
Thanks, Emily!
what a nice comic , dear :D
Thank you so much!
LOL! This reminds me of the time one of my sisters stuck a wet candy cane in my hair. We had to cut it out. It was horrible. And the little brat still got a present from Santa, believe it or not!
Oh, no! Santa should have left her just a little coal, at least!
THAT story reminds me of a time in my youth, shortly after Christmas, when my brother took Peanutty Putty that he’d gotten in his Christmas stocking, and mashed it into my fuzzy polar bear blanket. My mom had to use nail polish remover and a butter knife to get it out, and it took FOREVER, and she was really mad at him……but, the following year, we got Silly Putty/Peanutty Putty in our Christmas stockings again, just like we did every year. I thought that that was strange, because this happened when I was twelve or so, and well old enough to know that Santa Claus was really my parents, so why would they willingly give us something that my brother had proven he couldn’t be trusted with? I know they could have given it just to me, but I wouldn’t have put it past him to steal my Putty and do something destructive with it. Fortunately, he’s grown up a lot since then.
So cute. I’ve already had enough of the kids constantly stealing candy canes off the tree, then my daughter gets goop from it stuck in her hair while she’s eating it. Good times. Your new banner is so cute and looks so delicious!
Ha! I was going to put candy canes on my tree (it’s such a sweet effect!) but my 3 year old is going through a phase where she prides herself on being “sneeeeaky,” so I knew she’s eat them all in a day and make herself sick. She’s already setting up booby traps around the tree to catch Santa. Kid can’t be trusted.
Instead of real candy canes, why not do a simple craft project with your daughter, and make your own pretend candy canes out of red and white pipe cleaners?
Love it! Great police box at the end, too..
Thanks! It was a surprising amount of work, but I think it turned out nicely :D
I really enjoy your blog, it brings a smile to my face each time I read it. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you, Debbie! That’s so nice to hear :)

I’ve been away for far too long! Love the new look!
Thanks :D It’s just temporary for December; just being silly.
I still like it :D
HA! Love it! The Letterses, lol. And the candycanes = super lol
Nicole did such a fantastic job! The whole Letters thing came about because I actually thought (when I was wee!!!) that my new neighbours were called ‘Letters’. I mean, why else have that written on your door? ;)
I’m so glad you laughed at that, because I sure did :D Kate was great to work with; she had such funny stories.
You are too sweet, :)
Oh my gosh Nicole, I absolutely LOVE it! This is just genius and the beret is perfect, it’s just like the one that I had when I was a little girl! :) This is amazing, thank you so so much for a wonderful prize! :D :) Can’t wait to share this!!! :)
I’m so, so happy that you like it! Thanks for being so easy to work with!
Oh please, this has been an absolute treat, I really am so lucky! Thank you for being so fabulous and so generous! :)

WOW! It’s time. I am guest starring in Nicole aka The Middlest Sister’s web comic this week! It’s amazing. The story is all based around true events from my childhood she even perfected the cerise coloured beret which is just like the one I had as a child. This is the most amazing prize! WOW! Thank you so so much Nicole. Guys, if you’re not already following this blog you should be!
Ms Katykins :)
Nicole, this is the first I’ve seen your work, and it is awesome! … Kate, you naughty girl putting all those cards in one box. But you look mahvelous doing it!! So cool you won this contest!
Well, in truth it was just the one card that I posted in the wrong box, but in my head I did for the right reasons… lol. But this way it makes a better story, Maddie. Seeing this really tickled my big brother! :) Isn’t it just awesomeness? Sorry, Nicole, I’m commandeering your blog post!
this blog is one of its kind….Love your blog!!
Thanks, Maria!
Fun and colourful! Have subscribed to your blog so will be in touch…thanks for the laughs.. :grin:
Thank you and thanks for subscribing!
What ever happened to the spirit of the holidays? Don’t know, but loved the post!
:D Thanks Ronnie!
Perfection!
:D That picture of Wonderbutt always makes me laugh
Did this ever really happen? I mean, not the part with Kate, but did Chrissy ever actually stick pre-licked candy on people’s backs?
Reblogged this on shoptotop.
HaHa this is great.
Thanks! :-)
I just stumbled upon your blog and I immediately fell in love with it! I love your humour and scissor-skills.
Thank you! I’m glad you stumbled upon it :)
Hahaha Mr(s?) Letters looks like a blonde Friar Tuck!
Hahaha! I guess she does!
She actually reminded me more of a blonde version of Miss Viola Swamp.
Great! :D
Haha that’s awesome. I love my banner and the others you created for the other winners. Thank you so much :)
You have such a charming blog here. You are mightily talented. I also have 4 sisters, but I am #2! We also have one brother…he is the baby!
Thanks! That’s what we kind of expected when my mom announced she was pregnant with #5… but obviously, it didn’t turn out that way :-)
By the way, your latke recipe looked so delicious, I decided to make some for dinner! So, thanks for that :D
You are amazing!!! Such a unique artist!!
I JUST LOVE these comics and the entire concept. It’s simple yet excellent humor, it’s highly creative, very expressive, and just all over brilliant!
I’m definatly folllowing/liking, and I definatly look forward to more of these post; thanks and keep them coming!
