It's been said many times, many ways, but the
most memorable Christmas celebrations are the
ones that bring family and friends together in the
true spirit of holiday giving.
We would like to see you have the merriest of
Christmases and for that reason have compiled
some helpful hints and a few tried-and-true favorite
recipes for the holiday season.
Even though Christmas is almost one month
away, you would be surprised at how quickly it will
be here. Most people start their Christmas shopping
early these days and that's a good idea as it saves a
rush of bills all at one time. Starting early to buy
your Christmas household supplies is a good idea as
well. By adding a little bit to the shopping list each
week, you'll save time and spread out the cost.
If you haven't got those Christmas cards and
packages in the mail yet, do so as soon as possible
since the holiday rush is bound to slow up delivery.
Small gifts can be mailed in padded envelopes that
can be stapled shut. Larger packages can'be mailed
in sturdy cartons, taped shut and a sticker pasted do
with the address.
Christmas is a magical time for the children, so
let them participate when they can — whether it be
choosing or decorating the tree, making holiday
treats or even doing odd jobs around the house such
as dusting or cleaning waste baskets.
Although many people have bought artificial
Christmas trees, nothing rivals the smell of natural
pine. However, natural Christmas tree pose
special safety risks. To protect your family make
sure the tree you buy is fresh with soft, moist
needles and stand it in a water -filled container to
prevent drying.
Trees should be placed away from heaters in a
cool area and Christmas lights should be checked
for faulty or worn sockets.
Tree lights never should be left on if no one is at
home and the same goes for all light • s! decorations,
especially lighted candles.
A "help -yourself" buffet is the best way to serve
food at a party, but guests do enjoy nibble food
throughout the evening.
