Not presentable
Well, it's Christmas time again, and therefore it is my duty to pimp out Albert, the Fake Christmas Tree, that classic tiny dog tale of fakery and redemption. I would say more but someone is going to get very mad at me in a minute for dorking around on the laptop and not decorating gingerbread men.
It's 30 minutes later. The gingerbread men somehow ended up tasting like vegan dog biscuits, and were declared "not presentable" due to an application of red frosting that ended up making them look like they were dipped in ketchup.
Semirelatedly, if you find yourself without a Christmas present for someone at the last minute, feel free to visit this site, fire up the printer at work, and make a paper model of the World Trade Center or Angkor Wat. I sure wish someone would attempt one of these and send me a picture, but I know tiny dog readers are not the type to spend leisure time on weird paper craft projects. So go on, disappoint me.
Here are some more. These are kind of cool.

The Albert story was great. Poor thing. but alas he was happy in the end. Merry Christmas and may your days be happy and bright.
Albert is easily one of the best christmas stories out there. I could see school children performing this for a christmas pagent (and kids fighting to play the lead of Albert).
And you have correctly guessed this readers lack of initiative to undertake such an elaborate paper cutting project. Best of luck to any who do...
p.s. I tasted one of these "not presentable" cookies and they were, in fact, quite delicious.
