Up on Mount Crumpet,
Through a white fog...
It was Christmas Eve
For the Grinch and his dog.

It's Christmas Eve and the Grinch is fast asleep when Max realizes they didn't put out a snack for Santa! The friends work together to whip up a delicious treat in the kitchen--but will they finish in time before Santa arrives?
