Holiday Staredown
The look that parents give one another after realizing how much money 'Santa Claus' spent on Christmas that year while organizing finances; often occurs a few days after Christmas and results in yelling and frantic money saving until about February.
Little Child: What's wrong with mommy and daddy? They haven't made breakfast yet!
Older Child: ...Mommy and Daddy are busy paying bills. Stay in your room for a while, it's about time for a holiday staredown.
