Meaning
This reads as a comic exaggeration of sudden abundance, with the speaker treating an ordinary overflow as a festive miracle. It can be taken to mean that a lack has been replaced so completely that the result feels almost absurd, and in a happy way. It lands when a small problem turns into an overcorrection, like ending up with far more than you expected from one generous gesture.
