HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Citizen, 2008-12-24, Page 18We asked the Grade 1 students at
East Wawanosh Public School...
What is your favourite Christ-
mas movie/television show and
why?
“I like Rudolph The Red-Nosed
Reindeer. I like the new one though,
not the old one. I think I like it
because his nose is bright and red
and shiny. It’s funny too.”
- Grace
“I like any shows about Santa. I
like Rudolph and Frosty though too.
I only like the funny ones though.” -
Alex
“I like Rudolph The Red-Nosed
Reindeer because of the red nose.
Rudolph goes to the North Pole to
see Santa and the elves in that one.”
- Dakota
“I like the Scooby Doo show. He
goes sledding in it and he was being
chased by someone, but then he gets
away. It’s exciting too, because then
Scooby chases Santa.” -
Mackenzie
“I like this Christmas DVD I have
that has Santa and Jack Frost in it. I
watch it every night.
There’s a little girl in it and she
gets picked up by Santa’s sleigh.Then Santa takes her into his houseand shows her his snowglobe collec-tion.I like it because it’s good and it’sfunny too. I like the girl in it though
too.” - Kesler
“I have two younger sisters and we
always watch the Alvin And The
Chipmunks Christmas show.
That’s the one where the
Christmas tree gets chopped down
by a saw. After that they go into the
city because they’re worried that
Santa isn’t going to come.”
- Patrick
“I like this alien show that has
Christmas parts, so I don’t know
if that counts. The aliens turn
into elves and then there’s evil
guys who command them and
transform back into aliens and at
the end there’s a big snowball fight.” - Hunter“I like the Garfield Christmasshow. I like Garfield because of allthe funny things he does. I usuallywatch it on Christmas with my fam-
ily.” - Travis
“I don’t really have one, but I like
anything that has Santa in it.” -
Hayden
“I like the Grinch. He was the one
that wanted to take over Christmas. I
think it’s funny, I like the part where
he wraps the girl up in the Christmas
paper.” - Jaida
“I like Arthur’s Christmas. There
is something funny about it, even
though Arthur is going to school.
D.W. is there, but she mostly just
makes fun of Arthur.” -
Mackenzie

(NC)—With all the festivities that
take place over the holiday season,
it's no wonder that time-starved
hosts often opt for a casual potluck
party. While this type of entertaining
creates a great, relaxed vibe, it does
mean that guests must do some leg-
work beyond deciding what to
wear!
“What to make and how to get it
there are guests' top concerns when
attending a potluck party,” says
Jennifer Murphy, associate product
manager for Pyrex. “With some pre-
party planning and the right bake-
ware, you can ensure that your con-
tribution is delicious and makes it
safely to the party!”
Murphy offers these additional
tips for potluck partygoers:
• Ask the hosts what type of dish to
bring so they can make certain that
every type of dish – from appetizer
to entrée to dessert – is offered at
their party.
• Shop for your contribution in
advance so that you will have all
the necessary ingredients on hand
and can prepare your dish with
time to spare.
• To get your dish to the party safe-
ly, use a sturdy container.
• Be sure to highlight ingredients in
your dish, like nuts and shellfish,
which may cause food allergies.
• Consider creating recipe cards to
place beside your dish – that way
other guests can try your dish at
home.
• If you can bear to part with it,
consider leaving your bakeware for
the host – it will make a much-
appreciated hostess gift.
