A special thank you to Brickerville Fire Co. for the many years of using the Fire Hall, kitchen and parking lot. Also, the Brickerville United Lutheran Church for the last 13 years of using the social hall, kitchen and parking lot. A special thank you to all who were on committees for our club, and all members for their support to our club over the years. Jane S. Connelly, held the presidency for 17 years and who has done lots of day and overnight tours. Thanks to Elite Coach for the use of those wonderful coaches; the largest tour was Alaska, 30 days, from Elite, Ephrata to Alaska with #118 Coach; 10,222 miles with 37 travelers. Beverly Rightnour, held the presidency for 4 years, and Larue Ketner, 2 years. As we “Members Disband” from our club December 11, 2019, may “God” keep us safe and look over our needs. We shall be “friends” forever and go our separate ways, to what and where. Thanks again to all members, with God’s gift to each and every one of you, “Peace and Joy.”

Esther Martin, Grade 8 Our Horses

By: The Late C. Richard Beam

One evening when my brother was watering the horses, he forgot to close the door and the horses ran out. Our neighbor caught them. We were frightened and were glad when they were in the barn again.

A collection of “Deitsch Eck” columns from past issues of The Shopping News honoring the late C. Richard Beam.

(Originally published in the May 19, 1982 issue of The Shopping News) Stories From Center Grove School En Ganze Latt Fisch Ee Daag sin mir niwwer gedoppt an die Pond wu der Amos Horning nau wohnt. Dann sin mir zu’s Noah Martins gedoppt un hen der Harlan Martin aagedroffe. Er waar am Fische. No is er mit uns gloffe zu’s Amos Hornings. Mir hen gfischt in die Pond. Mir hen yuscht about 75 Fische gfange. Ich hab en grosse 15-Zoll Catfish (Katzefisch?) gfange. A Lot Of Fish One day we walked over to the pond where Amos Horning now lives. Then we walked to Noah Martin’s place and met Harlan Martin. He was fishing. Then he walked with us to Amos Horning’s place. We fished in the pond. We caught just about 75 fish. I caught a big 15-inch catfish. ***

Berks History Exhibit

An exhibit featuring the organizational history of the Berks History Center is on display in Wyomissing to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Berks History Center. The exhibit - which tells the story of The Historical Society of Berks County from its founding in 1869 to its transformation to the Berks History Center (BHC) today - is available for viewing at the Wyomissing Public Library, located at 9 Reading Boulevard, Wyomissing, MondayThursday, from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and Saturday 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Curated by BHC volunteer curatorial assistant, Amber Vroman, the exhibit is one of many rotating displays that will be featured at the Wyomissing Public Library now through 2020. The BHC has partnered with the Wyomissing Public Library to share its diverse collections with the community and is part of the BHC’s initiative to make Berks County’s history more accessible to the general public. The exhibit at Wyomissing Public Library is BHC’s second community “pop-up” exhibit installation this year. In August, the BHC featured Berks County’s industrial history at the Berks County Community Foundation in downtown Reading. These “pop-up” exhibits are just a taste of the historic offerings that are available at the Berks History Center

Museum and Research Library, located at 940 Centre Avenue, Reading. “The Historical Society of Berks County was founded 150 years ago to help preserve and share the history of our county,” says BHC Executive Director, Benjamin Neely. “Today, the Berks History Center is continuing that legacy in everything we do. From our educational programs and research library services to our activity on social media and our museum exhibits, it is our goal to make sure that everyone in Berks County can know and enjoy their history. The BHC’s new pop-up exhibits are one more way that we can celebrate the rich history of our community.” For more information, please call Alexis Campbell at 610-375-4375 or email publicity@berkshistory.org.

THIS WEEK’S

Biblical Message

He That Is Spiritual Judgeth All Things But where God has clearly made His truth and will known, believers should judge between truth and error, not only “standing” for what is right, but “with­ standing” what is wrong (Eph. 6:11,13), and this often involves “judging” and “withstanding” persons

involved. Using the same root, krino, the Apostle says: “But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man” (I Cor. 2:15). The truly spiritual man is so far above the wisest sages of this world, yea, so far above the mass of Christians with whom he comes in contact with, that he can understand them, but they can never quite understand him. It is a sad fact, however, that in the Church today, as in that of Paul’s day, there are so few, comparatively, who are truly spiritual and truly qualified to judge. Referring to the senseless and shameful contentions among the Corinthian

believers, Paul wrote: “I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?” (I Cor. 6:5). Here he reprimands them because there is not one man among them who is spiritual enough to reprove the wrong and defend the right. Indeed, Paul himself, an eminently spiritual man of God, once found it necessary to rebuke Peter publicly, even though Peter had been used of God to bring thousands to Messiah’s feet before Paul had even been converted. Read the passage carefully: “But when Peter was come

to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. “For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles; but when they were come he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the Circumcision. “And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him, insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation [hypocrisy]. “But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou being a Jew, livest after the manner of the Gentiles, and not as do

the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?” (Gal. 2:1114). Surely this must have been embarrassing to Peter, but who can deny that Paul was right in thus dealing with this crisis, stepping in immediately to rebuke Peter’s hypocrisy in going back on the great truths which God had revealed to him with regard to the oneness of Jewish and Gentile believers in Christ. Paul’s action was not only right; it was necessary lest Peter “build again” the wall of separation between Jewish and Gentile believers which he himself had helped to “destroy” (Ver. 18 cf. Acts

15:9­11). While Paul, in I Corinthians, deals with judging in the context of spirituality, he is not the first in Scripture to declare that God’s people should, when truly qualified, judge others. When Christ Himself was judged by His antagonists, He said: “Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment” (John 7:24). Surely our Lord indicated by these words that His hearers should judge — fairly and rightly, though “hypocrites” (as in Matt. 7:1­5 above) should take care not to judge at all. In I Corinthians 6:2,3, the Apostle declares that

Spartan Foundation Receives Donation

First Citizens Community Bank donated to the Spartan Foundation. The Eastern Lancaster County School District Spartan Foundation for Education

seeks to enhance the global educational opportunities of students to help them better compete in a rapidly­ changing, technology­ driven world.

Shown in the photo, from left to right, are Jamie Lutz (First Citizens), Dr. Robert Hollister (Superintendent) and Jeff Bollinger (First Citizens).

believers will one day “judge the world” and will even “judge angels,” basing upon this fact his exhortation that they should be able to judge in matters pertaining to this life (Ver. 3) and reproving them for their inability “to judge the smallest matters” (Ver. 2). And in Verse 5, as we have seen, he speaks to their shame that there is not even one among them who is spiritual enough, and there­ fore respected enough, to judge between his brethren. Thus God calls upon His people, not merely to judge others, but to be such as are qualified, morally and spiritually, to judge in matters concerning truth and error or right conduct and

wrong. Thus he instructs Timothy and Titus, both truly spiritual men of God, to act in situations in which it is necessary to judge. To Timothy he writes: “Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear” (I Tim. 5:20). And again: “…reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine” (II Tim. 4:2). Likewise, to Titus he writes: “For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I have appointed thee” (Titus 1:5).

“For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision; Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake” (Vers. 10,11). Not just anyone would be qualified, spiritually and morally, to judge the recalcitrant believers to whom Timothy and Titus ministered, but these two men of God were thus qualified and the Apostle instructed them to do so firmly. This brings us to a most important consideration appertaining to us all.

Cox Received Two VFW Lifesaving Certificates National On Wednesday, December 4 at 6:00 p.m., the Cocalico Valley VFW Post 3376, 141 South State Street, Ephrata, awarded two VFW Life­ saving Certificates to Pennsylvania State Police Trooper Jonathan G. Cox. Trooper Cox is an eight-year veteran of the State Police and assigned to Troop J, Lancaster. Trooper Cox was awarded two lifesaving awards in recognition of the following incidents: • On November 11, 2018, Trooper Cox went into Wawa at 2126 Lincoln Highway East, in East Lampeter Township, Lancaster County, to get himself dinner. While he was at the checkout counter a young female fell to the floor becoming unconscious. He immediately reported over the radio an unconscious female at Wawa and he retrieved the Naloxone from his vehicle as he requested EMS. The female was turning blue and unresponsive. As Trooper Cox came back inside the store, he subsequently administered to the female

two 4mg applications of Naloxone to her nostril. The Narcan was not immediately effective so Trooper Cox began to perform CPR as a second trooper arrived on scene with a resuscitation mask and gave the female two rescue breaths. Trooper Cox continued CPR until Lancaster EMS arrived on scene and transported the

unconscious who did in fact regain consciousness a minute or two later. One female had a broken leg and foot and the other male had his left leg severed off below the knee. Trooper Cox immediately applied his tourniquet to the male’s leg to stop the bleeding even though he had already lost a large amount of blood. All three subjects were transported to LGH where they were treated, and have recovered from this serious crash. Stated Corporal Bertrum James, Trooper Cox’s supervisor, “On the day of this crash there is no doubt in my mind that Trooper Cox saved that seriously injured male’s life by applying his tourniquet to the male’s leg to stop the bleeding.” The VFW National Life­ saving Award recognizes individuals who were instrumental in the saving of a human life. This is the first time that Post 3376 has issued this award.

Christmas Eve Candlelight Service

Festival Of Nine Lessons And Carols

By Miriam H. Martin

Salem Evangelical and Reformed Church, 12 East Church Street, Reamstown, will be having two Christmas Eve Candlelight Services on Tuesday, December 24. The services will be at 5:00 p.m. (childcare provided for children up to age four) and 7:00 p.m., with hot chocolate and cookies served after the 5:00 p.m. service. Come celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, the light of the world who shines into the darkness.

9 Bergstrasse Christmas Eve Service

Lighted luminaries along the driveway and parking lots will again welcome visitors to the Christmas Eve Service at Bergstrasse Evangelical Lutheran Church, 9 Hahnstown Road, Ephrata, on Tuesday, December 24. The service, beginning with special music at 7:15 p.m., will include music by the Joyous Praise Handbell Choir, the reading of the Christmas story from scripture, carols, Holy Communion and a candlelighting as the congregation sings “Silent Night.” Everyone is welcome to celebrate Christ’s birth at Bergstrasse.

Jesus came to show us the way. “Come follow me” He did say. The Good Shepherd knows his sheep His commandments we should keep. Jesus taught us what to say As we kneel down to pray. To our Father who is in heaven We ask that we will be forgiven. Jesus’ words are meant for all. We should listen to His call “Let your light shine” He did say May heaven be on earth today.

Interestingly, his one loss (often attributed to a terrible start and the extra weight he was carrying) was to a horse named Upset. * Statistically speaking, you probably live within 320 miles of the place you were born. * Have you ever ex­ perienced a social situation in which you have to introduce someone, but you can’t quite remember their name? In Scotland, there’s a word to describe the hesitation caused by that moment of panic: a tartle. * According to a poll conducted by outdoor recreation retailer Gander Mountain, almost half of all hunters have some kind of

ritual they observe to increase their chances for a lucky hunt. Some hunters go the entire season without shaving, some start each hunt at a particular time, some kiss the first bullet, some do an “anti-rain” dance -- the variations are endless. From Minor Tune-Ups to Major Repairs!

Scouts Order Of The Arrow Program

The Order of the Arrow (OA) is the National Honor Society of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA), composed of Scouts who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives as elected by their peer scouts. The society was created in 1915 as a means of reinforcing the Scout Oath and the Scout Law. It uses imagery commonly associated with American Indian cultures for its ceremonies. These cere­ monies are usually for recognition of leadership qualities, camping skills, and other scouting ideals. Influenced by Scout camp customs, the OA uses symbols and rituals to impart a sense of community. Inducted members, known as Arrowmen or Brothers, are organized into local youth-led lodges that harbor fellowship, promote camp­ ing, and render service to Boy Scout councils and their communities.

8th Grade Jaeden Akinin is a sporty 8th grader who loves laughing with his friends at Hinkletown Mennonite School. He is the oldest of two boys in his family, and his parents are Ivan and Nadia Akinin. They attend Ephrata Community Church every Sunday. One of Jaeden’s hobbies is fishing. He and his dad go fishing quite often, and they both enjoy it a lot, but he also likes to make time for playing and training for soccer. Maybe one day he will play soccer professionally. Most professional soccer players didn’t just get to play professionally with a snap of their fingers; they had to work hard. Jaeden does all that he can to prepare for all his games and stay active throughout the year. He plays on two teams, one for his school team and one for Lititz. When he does not have practice or a game, he does his own training or goes to the gym. One of his teammates, Clydde Bowman, says, “He could definitely do it, but he would work hard and really want it.” His coaches also think anything is possible and that Jaeden would be a great leader on his team. Another thing Jaeden did to help him train, was going to Germany to play soccer. He really liked it and would want to go back to play professionally there. Jaeden is a very determined young man who has big dreams and will do whatever it takes to make this image he has in his head, to be a professional soccer player, happen. Written by: Alayna Regitz

FOR ANOTHER SCHOOL YEAR!!

6th Grade Meet Kierra Martin. This sweet sixth grader might be your match, well that is, if you’re athletic, artistic, and can hunt. Kierra’s strengths tie directly into what she likes to do in her free time which happens to be drawing people and animals and spending time outside, maybe in a tree stand with her daddy. Kierra loves to spend time with her dad, and it makes her feel special that her dad spends time with her too! She looks up to her parents and enjoys spending time with her family, including her two younger sisters Hallie and Brielle. Apart from being with her dad, mom, and sisters, Kierra loves to spend time with her cousins whether that be swimming in Florida (her favorite place to go) or creating a human pyramid and watching it fall in slow motion. Kierra has such a fun flair! I mean, who else wants a lime green Jeep and a Bernese Mountain dog, likes the color turquoise, loves eating cream dried beef, and thinks hippos are funny and cute?! Kierra is not a procrastinator because she would rather finish her homework two weeks ahead of time. This definitely could come in handy because her dream job is to work in the office at Martin Water Conditioning or be an artist. I think that if work ever gets slow in the office because Kierra has finished everything ahead of time, she could just start creating art; then Kierra could be both an artist and work in the office. I really enjoyed interviewing Kierra, and being her big cousin makes this article extra special. Be on the lookout for a lime green Jeep with two girls aboard when Kierra turns 16.

Test Your Knowledge Of Christmas Movies

What would the holidays be without snowflakes fall­ ing outside, a mug of hot cocoa in hand and a favorite Christmas movie on television? Television is full of feelgood movies come the holiday season. Choose from among classic flicks you have watched year after year or new movies vying for spots as soon-to-be favorites. Watching Christmas movies is a holiday tradition for many families. So much so that lines from popular movies are easily remem­ bered and recognized. Those who can recite movies verbatim might enjoy testing their mettle with the following Christmas quiz loaded with memorable quotes from some holiday classics. 1. “It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without

packages, boxes or bags.” 2. “Uh, since the United States Government declares this man to be Santa Claus, this court will not dispute it. Case dismissed.” 3. “If TV has taught me anything, it’s that miracles always happen to poor kids at Christmas. It happened to Tiny Tim, it happened to Charlie Brown, it happened to The Smurfs, and it’s gonna happen to us!” 4. “I want an official Red Ryder, carbine action, 200 shot range model air rifle.” 5. “Bless this highly nu­ tritious microwavable macaroni and cheese dinner and the people who sold it on sale. Amen.” 6. “Iris, in the movies, we have leading ladies and we have the best friend. You, I can tell, are a leading lady, but for some reason, you’re behaving like the best friend.” 7. “Who gave you per­ mission to tell Charlie there was no Santa Claus? I think if we’re going to destroy our son’s delusions, I should be a part of it.” 8. “I want to wash my

hands, my face, my hair with snow.” 9. “We’re not just doing this for us. We’re doing it for the kids. For every kid who ever sat on Santa’s lap. For every little girl who left cookies and milk for Santa on Christmas night. For every little boy who opens a package Christmas morning and finds clothes instead of toys. It breaks my heart.” 10. “We all know that Christmas is a big comm­ ercial racket. It’s run by a big Eastern syndicate you know.” 11. “I fear you more than any spectre I have seen. But as I know your purpose is to do me good, and as I hope to live to be another man from what I was, I am prepared to bear your company, and do it with a thankful heart. Will you not speak to me?” 12. “Seeing is believing, but sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can’t see.” 13. “Light the lamp, not the rat, light the lamp, not the rat! Put me out, put me out, put me out!” 14. “Tell me something, Billy. How come a cute little guy like this can turn into a thousand ugly monsters?” 15. “Wanna see some magic? OK, let’s watch you disappear!” 16. “That’s not ‘my’ Christmas! ‘My’ Christmas is filled with laughter, and joy…and this: my Sandy Claws outfit. I want you to make it.”

Keep These Things In Mind When Making Gift Returns This Holiday Season Many of the gifts bought this holiday season will end up becoming returns. But not all of those returns or exchanges will be easy. Stores have return policies to protect themselves from fraud and financial loss. The wise consumer knows what to expect. The public is no longer living in the 30-day-moneyback-guarantee world. Stores are tightening their belts on returns and that’s important information to know when the holiday season has ended. Shorter Deadlines Many of the items in stores have finite “expiration” dates. Clothing styles are always evolving and technological advancements can make one product the latest and greatest one day and obsolete the next. That means stores have to be stringent on their return deadlines to ensure they’re not restocking “old” merchandise no one else will buy. Some stores will allow 2 to 3 weeks for returns. Retailers may count purchases made during the holiday season as

if they took place on December 24. That means the clock starts ticking from Christmas onward for returns. Restocking Fees Stores may charge a restocking fee of anywhere from 10 to 20 percent to take back items that have been opened. This is particularly true with electronics or appliances.

Whenever possible, if the item received will not be used, do not open the packaging. Opened items that are truly inoperable should be returnable without a restocking fee. Exchange or Store Credit Keep those gift receipts in a safe place. Gone are the days when stores will take back just about anything. Today, many retailers want

Sheds • Gazebos Decks • Playsets Lawn Furniture Vinyl Fence & Railing Garages Amish Crafts & Gifts FREE ESTIMATES on Roofing & Siding 1 Montrose Blvd., Shillington, PA

610-743-5660

may be exchanged for store credit, and that credit will usually reflect the current “sale” price of the item. Generally this price is lower than the purchaser paid a few weeks earlier. Having the receipt handy means the greatest dollar value can be given on the returned item. Return Database A consumer’s return history could be tracked at particular stores. Retailers often have a computerized system that tracks returns made, frequency and whether a receipt was used. Individuals who are frequent returners may find more difficulty returning items, especially those without a receipt. If the cashier asks to see a to see the receipt, even if the driver’s license or other tags are in place. If a receipt identification when items are is not available, the item taken back to the store, that’s

a likely sign a shopper’s return history is being recorded. Mail-Back Only Some retailers that operate both online and with brickand-mortar stores will allow items bought via the Internet to be returned at a physical store. Others will not. Be sure to know the return policy of online merchants to facilitate the process. Remember, oftentimes returning items through the mail requires that postage be paid by the person doing the returning.

Get Christmas Crafty With Homemade Ornaments Handmade gifts, trinkets and treats help make the holiday season special. Although cookies and other baked goods are some of the most popular homemade creations this time of year, gift-givers young and old can put their talents to use with various craft projects. Ornaments and decorations are one such idea. Here are some clever and, not-tootime-consuming craft projects to try this holiday season. • Mini sleighs: Create miniature replicas of Santa’s famous sleigh. Paint several popsicle sticks to form the main body of the sleigh and glue them together. Put one at the top perpendicular to the others to serve as the steering rudder. Two silverpainted popsicle sticks placed on their thin sides act as the blades of a sled. • Popcorn garland: Gar­ land made of popcorn is a classic handmade holiday project. For a new twist, toss the popcorn with food coloring and allow it to dry before stringing for some bright color on the tree. • Photo ornaments: Print out several different photos that you love. Purchase

round or square thin wood pieces from a craft store and attach the photos with Mod Podge®. When dry, drill a hole through the top and thread with twine. • Advent calendar: Make an Advent calendar to count down to Christmas by covering a foam board with fabric. Use paper tags or small ornaments and write a number on each for each day of the month. Hang these all from the board. As each day passes, move the tag or ornament to the tree.

Spirit of ‘76

• Wooden snowflakes: Have children collect small twigs from outdoors, as well as holly leaves and some sprigs of evergreen. Arrange similarly sized twigs in the shape of snowflakes and glue together, or tie with twine. Embellish with stickers, glitter, dried berries, and more. • Dough ornaments: Any­ one can have fun molding their own ornaments, letting them dry and then painting them. Use cookie cutters to get perfect holiday shapes. Craft stores sell various types of modeling clays and lightweight modeling

What Child Is This

Prepare Yourself With These Gift Wrapping Tips The holidays are here and that means shoppers have started to stockpile gifts for those they love. Once the shopping rush is over, the time to wrap all of those great finds and treasures has come. Although some people are gift-wrap gurus, there are many others who feel that their wrapping skills are lacking. Regardless, anyone can create delightful wrapped gifts with a little know-how. • Prepare The first step to wrapping is to have all of the supplies in one place. There are some people who have actually dedicated small rooms as gift-wrap stations. While you don’t have to go this far, find a large table and keep your tape, tags, paper, rib­ bon, scissor, pen, and other accessories nearby. Also, sort out the gifts ac­ cording to recipient and have any gift receipts handy to wrap up with the gift. Wrap at a time when there are no distractions and you can devote your attention to the task at hand, like after children have gone to bed or during the day when no one is home. • Paper or Bags? When purchasing wrap­ ping paper, it may be tempt­ ing to skimp on the quality of the paper to save money. However, a thicker, higher quality paper will make wrapping go more smoothly. That’s because it will be less likely to tear on boxes or when you’re rolling out and cutting it.

What child is this who, laid to rest, on Mary’s lap is sleeping? Whom angels greet with anthems sweet, while shepherds watch are keeping? This, this is Christ the King, whom shepherds guard and angels sing; haste, haste to bring him laud, the babe, the son of Mary. Why lies he in such mean estate where ox and ass are feeding? Good Christians, fear, for sinners here the silent Word is pleading. This, this is Christ the King, whom shepherds guard and angels sing; haste, haste to bring him laud, the babe, the son of Mary.

Thicker paper means you’ll also be able to achieve more intricate folds and bet­ ter creasing around boxes. It also may be more forgivable around oddly shaped items. Gift bags are the go-to wrapping medium when you’re short on time or have items that are not easily wrapped with paper. Be­ cause they come in a variety of sizes, and even giant plas­ tic bags to contain large gifts, they are often more convenient. • Other Tips There are different tips that can help with wrapping. Buy neutral-patterned wrapp­ing paper that coordi­ nates with other papers. This way if you run out of one

type of paper you can stag­ ger other pieces and make a collage of papers so there’s no waste. Use ribbon to dress up a gift and direct the eye away from any imperfections. Keep a stack of paper scraps and use it instead of tissue paper to fill in gift bags. Keep scissors sharp for clean cuts. Pack smaller items or odd­

So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh, come, peasant, king, to own him; the King of kings salvation brings, let loving hearts enthrone him.

ly shaped things into a dif­ ferent container that is easier to wrap. Roll up clothing and place into a paper towel tube to turn the wrapping into a can­ dy cane shaped gift. Practice often makes per­ fect when it comes to wrap­ ping gifts. Having the right paper, a few decorative sup­ plies and some patience can ensure that gifts look festive this year.

A List Of Top-Selling Gifts From Years Past

Many children who grew up in the 1980s hoped to find a wrapped Cabbage Patch Doll under the tree on Christmas morning, and many parents went to great lengths to procure such dolls for their children. Cabbage Patch Dolls are just one example of a toy creating a shopping frenzy. Over the years, many toys have become the must-have presents of their times. The following is a history of some of the more popular gifts from bygone years. 1984: Transformers were a must-have present in 1984. Originally produced by a Japanese toy company, Transformers were even­ tually produced by Hasbro and became so popular they were a toy that spawned an later block-buster live-action animated series (not the movies. 1985: Just about every series leading to the toy) and child, and maybe even adult, wanted a Nintendo Enter­ tainment System for Christmas in the 1980s. The system ushered in a new era of gaming, and helped make Super Mario Bros. a

back. 1990: Were you a fan of Michelangelo, Leonardo, Donatello, or Raphael? Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were named after Renaissance artists, but they were just pizza-eating teen­ age heroes at the start of the 1990s. Kids obsessed over these action figures and the animated series that featured them. 1992: Barbie has always been a popular holiday gift, but her reinvented Barbie Dream House was something girls were clamoring for in the early 1990s. Barbie’s trendsetting home featured a ringing telephone, a working doorbell and a fireplace that lit up. 1993: The Talkboy was a portable audio cassette player and recorder made popular by the movie “Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.” 1995: Beanie Babies were a popular line of collectibles that enjoyed their heyday in 1995. Rare Beanie Babies would later be worth hundreds of dollars. 1997: Tamagotchi made its appearance and became a premiere virtual “pet.” Industry insiders estimate that, at the height of its popularity, 15 Tamagotchis sold every minute across North America. 1998: Building on the Tamagotchi success, Furbies were poised to become a hit as well. And they did, as 27 million Furbies were sold in 1998 alone. Pokémon cards, Razor Scooters, Nintendo DS, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and many other gifts have reigned supreme during the holiday shopping season. Last year L.O.L. Surprise Dolls were the sleeper hit, and who is to say which gift will capture the hearts of kids this year?

Shopping Facts And Figures

• Many people pride them­ selves on shopping early for gifts, but there are eleventh­ hour consumers as well. NRF says around 15 percent of last­minute shoppers plan to buy gifts at supermarkets or grocery stores. • Charitable giving tends to skyrocket at the end of the year, when the spirit of giving synonymous with the season inspires individuals to give back. According to PricewaterhouseCoopers, the average total cash contribution to charity by individuals is roughly $245. • The NRF notes that, in 2017, only about 12 percent of consumers finished their holiday shopping by the second week of December. • Research from Forbes found that gift cards will continue to reign supreme. Gift cards are convenient for gift­givers, and PWC found that 42 percent of people prefer to receive gift cards for the holidays. • Sales are strong for both online and brick­and­mortar retailers. Accenture’s “10th Annual Accenture Holiday Shopping Survey” dis­ covered 84 percent of consumers plan to go online, particularly to Amazon.com, to research and price­check gifts before looking or buying elsewhere. • The Accenture survey also found that at least three­ quarters of shoppers are enticed by coupons and other promotions to shop at stores they have not visited before. • Don’t let the holiday buying season fool you. Shopping continues even after Santa has slid down the chimney. The NRF states 48 percent of shoppers will take advantage of after­Christmas sales in stores.

The holidays are here, and that means millions of people will spend time decorating, making shopping lists, purchasing presents, and stocking up on enter­ taining essentials. Various groups and consumer watchdogs track trends in holiday spending and giving, and many facts and figures may surprise holiday en­ thusiasts. • Economists with the National Retail Federation say online and retail sales in 2017 increased by 10.5 percent over the previous year. The combination of job and wage gains, modest inflation, and elevated consumer confidence has led to higher holiday spending. • Between Thanksgiving Day and Cyber Monday 2017, more than 174 million Americans shopped in stores and online, offers the NRF. Black Friday still reigns supreme, with 77 million consumers. However, Small Business Saturday was not far behind, with 55 million consumers. • Data from Prosper In­ sights & Analytics says people planned to spend an average of $967.13 in 2017 on the holiday season. That was up 3.4 percent from the year prior. • Tracking of spending on video games by The NPD Group reflects a growth of 15 percent when compared to a year ago. All categories have shown gains, including software, hardware, access­ ories, and game cards. Fortnite has been a significant software sales driver for 2018, ratcheting up legions of fans seemingly overnight.

Help Your Pet Avoid Holiday Stress Making The holidays have started, and although you may be coping just fine, your pet may not be. Hiding under the bed, licking itself constantly, whining and pacing, or clinging to you are all signs of a stressed­ out pet. Although they don’t have to deal with the hassles of holiday crowds, pets can still be affected by the stress of the holiday season. There are certain steps that you can take, however, to make this time of the year easier on your pet. Stick to your pet’s regular schedule. Even if you have to cut back on their playtime and walks in order to get things done at this hectic time of year, make sure you feed, play and walk your pet at the normal times. Create a place where your pet can get away from all of the confusion and make sure they have access to their favorite toy there. Use non­toxic products when decorating and anchor the tree so that your pet can’t knock it over. Place fragile ornaments and edible decorations like gingerbread men at the top of the tree. Be wary of using tinsel, which can cause intestinal blockage in pets when eaten, and make sure your pet doesn’t eat the needles of the tree, which can also cause intestinal blockage. Keep all cords and holiday plants

out of the reach of your pet, and place lit candles on high shelves. Gifts require extra pre­ cautions. Pets have been known to get into packages that contain food, so if you receive any packages in the mail containing food, put them out of your pet’s reach. When wrapping gifts, keep the wrapping supplies away from your pet and put everything away as soon as you are finished. Once all of the gifts have been opened, pick up the paper immediately and ask children to put away their toys. Choking and intestinal blockage are commonly caused by pets swallowing small plastic toys or rubber balls.

Be careful about dressing up your pet at the holidays. Some costumes can limit pets’ movement, while others can easily get caught on things and cause injury. Put your pet in another room so they can’t bolt out of the front door whenever company comes over. Make sure your pet is wearing an I.D. tag just in case they manage to escape. Don’t feed your pet from the dinner table and don’t let guests do so either. Keep chocolate away from your pet. Small amounts can cause vomiting and diarrhea, while large amounts can cause abnormal heart rhythms, nervous system malfunctions, and in some cases, death. Should you ever feel that your pet has eaten something they shouldn’t, don’t hesitate to call your vet right away. Face it. The holiday season can be a stressful time, even for your pet. Don’t spend this season coaxing a whimpering pet out from under the bed. Take precautions now and ensure the holidays are a happy time for everyone living in your home.

sight as much as possible. 2. Cut apart the bunch of poinsettias with wire cutters and place the individual flowers around the wreath. 3. Attach the flowers to the wreath by wrapping the stems around it. Snip off any excess. 4. Place the ornaments around the wreath and attach them to the wreath with floral wire. 5. Lay the wreath flat in a box, wrap with gift paper and add a bow. Creating a wreath to give to the host of a dinner party is fairly easy. If you can’t find a wreath with lights, you can always buy a string of lights and attach them to the wreath first. If your host has a particular hobby or interest, you can even specialize the wreath for them with miniature charms and decorations, such as music notes for a music lover. Now, how’s that for the perfect thank­you gift?

Holiday Shopping Tips When Shopping For Toddlers And Preschoolers Extra Kick The chaotic holiday shopp­ ing season seems to approach sooner each year, and while visions of toy recalls dance in their head, consumers shopping for young children will be on their toes this season. While safety should be a big concern, toy shoppers should keep other things in mind as well, say early childhood experts at Parents as Teachers National Center. Age and skill level. Con­ sult the age guidelines shown on toy boxes, but remember they are just that, guidelines. Imagine the child playing with the toy; is it challenging enough to capture his interest without being overwhelming or unsafe? If you are unsure, ask the child’s parents. They know their child’s skills and capabilities best, and can decide if he is ready to enjoy a particular toy. Opportunities for parentchild interaction, the “play with me” factor. When shopping for gifts for young children, look for items that will foster parent interaction

with the child. Adults can support and extend children’s play. Look for play materials that provide such opportunities. Games are good choices as they require more than one person to play. For parents, think of things you like to do and see if you can extend those pastimes to include your child. For example, if you like to cook, child-sized utensils, apron and a cookiebaking date could make a gift both you and your child will enjoy.

Interests. At a very early age children develop inter­ ests that guide their learning and enjoyment. Parents should watch what their child chooses to play with and listen to the things she talks about. At the same time, help a child who is engrossed with a particular type of plaything to branch out and have other play experiences. For example, a child who is fascinated with trains might enjoy a puzzle with a train theme.

Toys are not the only things children play with. Look for everyday objects that can support and extend a child’s interests. For examp­ le, a child interested in bugs might like a flashlight and an unbreakable magnifying glass to find specimens. The value of play. Young children learn things every day through play. Toys that do everything for the child don’t have much play value, nor are they likely to engage a child for long. But toys and

materials that allow a child to use his imagination will also help his brain grow. Look for activities that are open-ended, that is, that can be played with in many different ways. Building blocks, for example, can be played with by children at different ages. They can become anything the child imagines them to be. All things considered… Always focus on how safe playthings are when choosing gifts for children. Safety depends on how toys are manufactured, but also on how appropriate they are for a child’s age, skill level and activity level. There is no such thing as an absolutely safe toy. Children require supervision during play. And remember that more than anything else, young children crave time and attention. These are the best gifts a parent can provide. When you play with your child you foster learning and support his development in a number of areas.

From Your Holiday Cookies

Baking cookies during this festive season allows friends and family to gather in the kitchen, and then enjoy the fruits of their labor — a dish full of sweet treats. During a time where many people are left to balance a busy social schedule with work obligations and long lines at the mall among other gift shoppers, oftentimes, you’re left with a declining level of energy. If that’s the case, whip up a snack that will act as a pick-meup. Try cooking a batch of Cappuccino Cookies. These cookies should give you the extra boost you can use around the holidays, while still allowing you to satisfy your cookie-baking tradition. CAPPUCCINO COOKIES Makes 25 1⁄2 cup softened butter 1⁄2 cup packed light brown sugar 1 tablespoon acacia honey 1⁄4 teaspoon salt 1 egg 1 tablespoon liquid coffee concentrate 2 tablespoon. instant coffee, dissolved in 1 tablespoon hot water 11⁄4 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda 3⁄4 cup chopped macadamia nuts 5 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped Beat the butter in the bowl of an electric mixer until creamy. Beat in the sugar, honey, and salt. Add the egg, coffee concentrate, and dissolved coffee, and beat at low speed for 3 minutes. Add the flour, baking powder, and soda, and beat for 3 minutes longer. Mix in the chopped nuts and chocolate. Transfer the dough to a sheet of parchment paper and roll into a cylinder shape 2 1⁄2 inches in diameter. Wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cut the dough into slices 1⁄2-inch thick. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 14 minutes. Remove and cool on a wire rack.

How To Make The Holiday Season More Eco-Friendly

Christmas trees. • Serve locally sourced foods. Food is often front and center during the holiday season. Whether hosting family and friends at home, dining out or catering an office party, patronize businesses that sell only locally sourced foods. Locally sourced foods are much more ecofriendly than foods that must be shipped from afar before they land on your dinner table, and such foods tend to taste fresh as well. If serving at home, use reusable dishware and cutlery instead of paper plates and plastic utensils.

than today’s LED Christ­ mas lights. The Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy notes that LED lights consume 75 percent less energy and last 25 times longer than incandescent lighting. In addition, the OEERE says that LED holiday lights are easier to install and that as many as 25 strings of lights can be connected end-toend without overloading a wall socket. An eco-friendly holiday season is easier to realize than many holiday celeb­ rants may know.

• Reuse decorations year after year. Decorations need not be discarded once the holiday season ends. Come the new year, inspect holiday decorations and store those that made it through the season unscathed. Doing so benefits the planet and will save you the trouble of shopping for new decorations next holiday season. • Get rid of your old holiday lights. Still using the same Christmas lights you used in 1995? Such lights are likely incandescent bulbs that are considerably less efficient

Taste in music is a topic of eternal debate. Whether a person’s interests lean to­ ward the Beatles or the Beastie Boys, there’s no de­ nying most people love lis­ tening to music. Music can lift our moods and help us through difficult times, and it can also make the good times that much more enjoy­ able. Come the holiday season, many people look to music when gifting friends and family. Though it’s wise to avoid getting too specific with a musical gift for fear of offending personal taste, there are more general gifts shoppers can give that are sure to please. • Protective headphones: The popularity of digital music has increased the pop­ ularity of personal digital music players that are often listened to via headphones. One significant disadvantage to such players is the longterm side effects they can have on hearing. Over time, if music lovers spend lots of time listening to players with poorly designed head­

phones, they can do substan­ tial and possibly irreparable damage to their ears. Protect your loved one’s hearing with headphones that prom­ ise great sound quality with­ out putting a person’s hear­ ing at risk. Protective head­ phones can reduce the risk of hearing loss and often pro­ vide superior sound quality than the headphones that come standard with some of the most popular digital mu­ sic players. • Music lessons: Younger music fans might want to try their hand at a favorite musi­ cal instrument or join a choir. For such youngsters, music lessons might be the ideal gift to encourage a hobby that’s both healthy and educational. Those con­ sidering such lessons for nieces or nephews should consult the youngster’s par­ ents first, as Mom and Dad will ultimately have to deal with the consequences of having a young rocker around the house. For espe­ cially young kids, consider musical toys that are fun and educational. • Concert tickets: Music lovers almost universally agree seeing a favorite band or performer live in concert is even better than listening in the car or at home. This holiday season, consider go­

C

With so much to do, it can be easy for people celebrating the holiday season to forget about the environment. But no matter how hectic the holiday season can be, there are always some simple opportunities to make it more eco-friendly. • Create an eco-friendly party theme. Many holiday parties have themes. For example, “ugly sweater parties” have become so popular that many clothing manufacturers now intentionally produce colorful sweaters that might otherwise draw the ire of fashionistas. Hosts planning to throw an ugly sweater party can easily transform such festivities into something more ecofriendly by encouraging guests to purchase their sweaters from thrift stores. A Christmas tree planting party is another ecofriendly party theme that can benefit the planet and revitalize local forests at a time of year when they might be depleted due to the demand for natural

Maintaining Your Exercise Routine

Temperatures are dropping and you’re busy preparing for the holidays. What would it hurt if you took a break from your exercise program? With everything going on during the holiday season, it’s no wonder this thought pops into your head. Scheduling workouts is difficult, and sometimes, you have no choice but to skip workouts, making you feel like you’re com­ promising your efforts to stay fit. Fortunately, there are some steps you can take to maintain your exercise routine during this hectic time of year. One of the first things you need to do is acknowledge the fact that the holidays are going to affect your exercise routine in some way. You may have to reschedule trips to the gym, shorten your workouts and skip some entirely. Be prepared to make whatever adjustments are needed and change your routine to prevent boredom.

If you swim four times a week, for example, you might want to cut back to twice a week and try running, lifting weights or playing racquetball in-between. Add in some outdoor activities like cross-country skiing, sledding or snowshoeing for variety, and if you normally exercise after work, try doing so before work or during lunch. If you absolutely can’t make it to the gym and must skip your workout, do other activities at home to make up for it. Walk to the store rather than drive, or at the very least, park farther away from the store and walk the extra distance. Clean house, walk the dog and do squats while on the phone. Go for a brisk walk before breakfast, after dinner or both. Start with a five- to 10-minute walk and work up at a 30-minute one. To make your walk more challenging, carry a backpack with some books in it. Work out at home. Watch TV while pedaling a stationary bike. Try some bodyweight routines. Lift some weights.

walk the rest of the way. Walk around your building during breaks or at lunch. Join a fitness center nearby where you can exercise before or after work or during your lunch hour. Put your exercise time on your calendar and treat it like a business appointment. Start or join a recreation league or a sports team for charity. If you are traveling during the holiday season, take extra care to exercise. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Walk while waiting at the airport. Stay at hotels with fitness centers or pools. Do calisthenics in your hotel room. The holidays are not a time to stop exercising. In fact, they are a good time to focus on staying fit and perhaps even setting up that home gym you’ve been thinking about. This will keep you motivated and help you stay on track and combat stress.

Few things get worked harder during the holiday season than credit cards. Because of all the spending that comes with the holiday season, the black strip on the back of a credit card is often worn down by the time New Year’s Day finally arrives. But just as worn down is the person holding that card. In addition to the busy social schedules and shopping lists that run people ragged by the end of the holiday season, financial stress can also take its toll by the end of the season. But the financial stress doesn’t have to be so burdensome. • Christmas clubs: Banks typically offer a Christmas club savings plan. Each week, account holders deposit X amount of dollars into the account, and that money cannot be withdrawn until a specified date during the holiday season. Many banks even allow automatic e-transfers from a checking or savings account so account holders don’t forget to make their deposits. At the end of the savings period, you’ll have a sizeable

Deciding Where To Spend The Holidays This Year You’ve only been married for a few short months, but in that time, you’ve man­ aged to fill up your personal calendar with various family events. Now with the holiday season rapidly approaching, requests are flying in from all over the place. You have received a number of requests to spend time with this person, that person and the other on Christmas Eve and Day. You and your spouse’s parents are both divorced, so in addition to four sets of parents vying for your attention, you have various cousins, aunts and uncles telling you that you can spend the holidays with them. Ugh, it’s making your head spin as to what to do. Relax. Unless your families all live in the same general area, you can’t possibly spend the holidays with each and every person who asks. You are going to have to turn down some invites; otherwise, you will be spending your days off from work running from home to home. Conflict is inevitable, so you might as well face that fact and be prepared to take the bull by the horns and come up with a creative solution. Many couples find it best to focus on their parents’ schedules first. If your parents celebrate on Christmas Eve and your spouse’s parents on Christmas Day, then perhaps you can spend time with both sets of your

parents on Christmas Eve and your spouses’ parents on Christmas Day. If everyone celebrates on Christmas Day, then perhaps you can take turns spending that day with your parents. Perhaps you can spend the day this year with your mother and stepfather, next year with your motherin-law and her husband, the following year with your father and stepmother, and the year after that, with your father-in-law and his wife. If you decide to alternate holidays between parents, make sure you document

your actions. Get a notebook and write down where and with whom you spend the holidays each year. That way, there will be no question each year as to where you are spending the holidays. Should your mother, father or in-laws forget and question why you are spending the day with so-and-so, you will have proof where you were

the year before and why you are planning to be where you are this year. If alternating holidays between parents seems a little too hairy for you, you could throw your own celebration at another time in December and invite your parents over. You could invite other relatives, too, and save yourself and

Imagine not having to load and unload all of your kids’ gear and gifts. These are just a few ideas for dealing with schedule conflicts during the holidays. With some thought, you are sure to come up with a method that suits you and your spouse and your families. If you don’t and the process gets out of control, you may have to play hardball and refuse all requests. You can always spend the holidays at home with your new spouse and some friends. A little time apart from your families may give everyone some perspective on the issue and the motivation they need to find a creative solution next year. Deciding where and with whom to spend the holidays is never easy. Try to please as many family members as you can, but don’t go overboard and stretch yourself thin. Say no when you need to, make your decision and stand firm.

The Sounds Of Christmas

Next to “White Christmas,” what is the best-selling Christmas song of all time? “Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer,” of course. Ironically, the song began as an advertising campaign for Montgomery Ward. In 1939, copywriter Robert L. May was asked to create a story for a Christmas coloring book the store could give to shoppers. May, who was sickly as a child, wrote the tale of the red-nosed Rudolph. By 1946, the store had given away nearly six million copies of the coloring book. May obtained the copyrights to the story a year later and his brother-inlaw, Johnny Marks, set it to music. In 1949, Gene Autry recorded the song, selling nearly two million copies. Popular ever since,

“Rudolph” and the sounds of other Christmas songs fill the air every year. But how much do you really know? Take this quiz and find out. 1. Who wrote “A White Christmas?” A) Irving Berlin B) Sammy Cahn & Jule Styne C) Bobby Helms 2. What song contains the line, “City sidewalk, busy sidewalks dressed in holiday style?” A) “Up On The Housetop” B) “Let It Snow!” C) “Silver Bells” 3. What did the narrator’s true love send on the eighth day of Christmas? A) Calling birds B) Drummers drumming C) Maids a milking 4.

Norman Rockwell Christmas

Certain holiday images have been ingrained in the minds of the public. CocaCola’s smiling bearded Santa Claus, in his now universally recognized red coat, helped create a model from which all other Santas evolved. And an early 20th century artist and illustrator helped to establish the feelings of the Christmas season for millions with portraits featured on the covers of The Saturday Evening Post. Norman Rockwell was born in New York City in 1894 and dreamt of be­ coming an artist when he was young. Rockwell received his first commission at age 17 and illustrated for Boy’s Life, the monthly magazine of the Boy Scouts of America. In 1916, Rockwell was hired by The Saturday Evening Post. When Rockwell began work­ing for the Post, his humorous and dead-pan depictions of American life tugged at the heartstrings of the public — even if they weren’t so adored by art critics. Rockwell spent 47 years working for this iconic magazine. Rockwell pro­ duced paintings for the Post and other publications that depicted key images in American history, including Charles Lindbergh’s cross­ ing of the Atlantic, the Moon

Landing and World War II. However, some of Rock­ well’s most beloved work pertains to his holiday scenes. Rockwell used real people as his models, and every detail in his reproduction paintings of photographs was fastidiously planned, say biographers. Over time, Rockwell’s paintings helped define an idealized vision of American life and Christmas celebrations. Even now

people seek to emulate the merriment and magic exemplified in Rockwell’s imagery — from tired toy store clerks to a boy discovering Santa kissing his mom to the great holiday dinner. Rockwell produced 29 Christmas covers as well

Empty your pockets or pocketbooks of spare change each day and store in any available receptacle, empty juice container, water bottle or can, large enough to accommodate the change. When it comes close to the holidays, roll your change and bring it to your bank, or take advantage of the CoinStar machines in many supermarkets to cash in your coins. Spare change saved for a year could very easily add up to hundreds of as greeting cards and other dollars. holiday scenes. • Take advantage of credit The holiday season would card incentives: Credit card not be the same without the holders who extensively rely work of artist Norman Rockwell.

on their cards each holiday season can take advantage of the incentives many com­ panies offer. These incen­ tives can net free merch­ andise cardholders can then give as gifts, or other benefits cardholders can use for themselves once the season is over. What these incentives essentially allow is card­ holders to get more bang for their holiday buck. Such value can make paying the credit card bills come January a little easier to swallow. • Consider CDs: If you’ve made a conscious effort to save early for the holidays, consider a Certificate of Deposit (CD). CDs can be an effective means to saving in the months leading up to the holiday season or even a means to saving for the bills that will inevitable arrive once the season is over. Account holders can deposit money into a CD for a specific amount of time (3 months, 6 months, 9 months) depending upon what your bank offers. CDs usually yield a higher amount of interest than regular savings accounts, so you’ll be rewarded with extra money when the CD matures.

Guide To Office Gift Giving

Fewer things are harder come the holiday season than shopping for the perfect gift. Whether you’re shopp­ ing for your spouse, child, or distant cousin, chances are you want to get a thoughtful gift that expresses your love and appreciation. While shopping for relatives is challenging, things may seem a bit tougher when shopping for coworkers or colleagues. If you happen to be friends with a coworker or colleague, finding a gift may be easier. But if you want to do something thoughtful for those you simply work with,

the following guidelines should help you keep things pleasant and professional. • Consider religion: There’s a good chance your office includes people from diverse backgrounds. Certain gifts are taboo in some cultures, but perfectly acceptable as gifts in others. If there’s any doubt as to a coworker’s religion or other preferences, steer clear of gifts that might raise an eyebrow or possibly be seen as offensive. In addition, if you’re unsure whether a client or colleague drinks alcohol, avoid giving a bottle of wine or champagne as a gift. • Give a gift that’s office ready: If you’re really stuck, give a gift that can help brighten a coworker’s office or cubicle. For example,

The Origins Of The Yule Log

give a plant, a small radio, or something to make them more comfortable, such as a seat cushion or padded mouse pad. Avoid wall hangings, as there’s no accounting for another person’s taste, and you don’t want to put a coworker in the position of having to hang something on their wall that

they don’t like simply because they feel obligated. • Go the gift certificate route: To some, gift certificates might seem to indicate little effort on your part. To others, they’re the perfect gift and one they’re sure to use. Don’t worry about which group a coworker falls into. If you really can’t find a gift, a gift certificate is perfectly acceptable. If you’re unaware of a coworker or colleague’s interests, give a mall gift card that’s accepted by many of the stores in the mall. Chances are, they’ll find at least one store that matches an interest. • Don’t give items emblazoned with the company name: Nothing

will make you look cheaper or more indifferent than giving a company sweatshirt or memo pad to a colleague for the holidays. Such items are probably available for free throughout the year anyway, so giving them during the holidays is inappropriate. These items are meant for marketing campaigns, not as holiday gifts for employees, colleagues, or clients. • Let common sense be your guide: If you’re unsure about a certain gift, follow the rule of common sense. A general rule of thumb is to not give anything too personal to coworkers or colleagues.

The burning of a yule log has been a Christmas tradi­ tion in many European coun­ tries for centuries. It is be­ lieved to have originated at pagan winter solstice festi­ vals or yule festivals among Germanic people. Eventual­ ly it turned into a Christmas tradition, one where a piece of wood is burned in the hearth, oftentimes overnight until Christmas arrives. Even now, people who have fireplaces in their homes often participate in the yule log tradition. But for the many others who don’t have a fireplace, an en­ terprising television execu­ tive devised a solution back in 1966. Fred M. Thrower, President and CEO of WPIX, Inc., a local televi­ sion station in New York, was inspired by a commer­ cial showing Santa Claus in front of a roaring fire. He came up with the concept of airing a continuous loop of a yule log burning so that viewers without fireplaces could enjoy the magic of the yule log with seasonal music playing in accompaniment to the mesmerizing flames. The original piece of film was a loop of only 17 sec­ onds of film and individuals could tell it was artificial by its jerky appearance. Even­ tually the yule log was re­ filmed. Annual airing of the yule log took place up until the 1990s. But fans of the holiday staple protested and, after 11 years of being off the air, the yule log returned in 2001, a few months after the September 11th attacks. Television executives cited that people wanted “comfort food television” and restored the yule log. The yule log is now broad­ cast through many WPIXaf­ filiates, and many other sta­ tions have done their own yule log broadcasts.

Dress Up The Traditional Pie At Christmas Doing Your Here are some ways to dress up the “traditional” favorites at your Christmas dinner. • Make your usual pie crust, 2­crust version. Line the pie tin, put in the filling, and now it’s time to play. Roll out the second crust and start cutting shapes using cookie cutters or free form with a knife. • If you have the time and inclination, when the pie is baked and cooled, then use frosting to decorate your crust decoration. To save time, use those little tubes from the grocery; no one cares how it tastes. The gels are neat. • Decorate with white frosting and candy, licorice for Santa’s belt, gum drops for eyes, various colored sprinkles, cut up tiny marshmallows, candied fruit, nonpareils, cinnamon drops, etc. • Using whatever you have for the top crust – shapes, lattice or solid – apply egg yolk and then sprinkle with red or green colored sugar. • Do the usual only very different, i.e., make a pumpkin chiffon pie. At serving time, crumble candy canes and sprinkle on top. • Add a layer of marzipan or almond paste to the pie. Roll it out into a circle, place it on top of the bottom crust, then add filling. Good with mince meat, apple, pumpkin, etc. • For Beef Wellington, encase it in pie dough, then cut out shapes and apply them on top.

Christmas Shopping At The Last Minute

• Make an apple pie or something compatible with cheese and then cut out stars from cheese and apply on top. Sprinkle a few cinnamon drops around. • Make a meringue topping (would work for most pies) and then when it’s baked and cooled, sprinkle the top with large white fluffy sugar flakes, like snow. Or colored sprinkles. • Sprinkle crushed candy cane chips on top of the pie after it’s baked. • After it’s baked and cooled, stick miniature candy canes around the rim. • Most fruit pies are compatible with cranberries. Dip cranberries in egg white and then coat with sugar and place on top; they look

frosted. You can also use candied fruit – put green citron around red candied cherries like holly berries. • Sprinkle top with powdered sugar, like snow. There are lots of ways to dress­up the traditional favorites, and this should give you a good start!

Most people tend to do at least some of their Christmas shopping at the last minute. This is why shopping centers and malls, and their parking lots, are packed full in the few days leading up to Christmas Day. Every store is filled with people looking for those perfect gifts. The closer to Christmas it gets, the more anxious and agitated the crowd becomes, and many of those people, in desperation, are now searching not for the perfect gift but just for an acceptable one. Even though there is a whole year in which people can prepare for this festive season, and their New Year’s resolution may have been to do it earlier this time, many still leave their shopping to the last minute. Some people leave it this late because they enjoy the

excitement of it, some because they have put it off, and others because they have no choice. People who have no choice but to do their Christmas shopping at the last minute include college students, whose semester ends in mid to late December. Many of them do not have their own car and are living on campus during the semester, so shopping for Christmas any earlier is not possible. This is especially understandable when you remember that they have to work hard during early December for their finals, which are often worth 50% of their final grade. Mid December is when they take their finals, so they have to do their shopping for Christmas when the last final exam is over, and this means they find themselves doing it at the last minute, like it or not. Many of the people who put off Christmas shopping have been to the stores during October and November, when they could easily have got their

shopping done early. Instead, they spend their shopping time buying things for themselves, or just window shopping. They know Christmas is on its way, but don’t feel pushed to do anything about it until the last minute. Then they find themselves battling with the last minute Christmas shopping crowds. Then there are the people who actually enjoy last minute Christmas shopping. Maybe they see it as something of a challenge, confident that they can find their perfect gifts in a short space of time.
