(News -Record photo) Sharon's recipe corner and hints Helpful Hints Children born near Christmas often feel ,cheated so why not celebrate their birthdays on another day - a holiday or on the birthday of a favourite friend or relative. Save champagne bottles from a wedding reception and as a gift for their first Christmas or their first anniversary, present the couple with a set of drinking glasses cut from the bottles. 'Children's artwork makes great gift wrap for grandparents. For someone in the hospital, choose a "-for- ward-looking" gift that he or she will be able to use once they're well and at home again.
