"God gave us memory so that we might have roses in December"

When we recall Christmas past, we usually find that the simplest things - not the great occasions - give off the greatest glow of happiness.

Gifts of time and love are surely the basic ingredients of a truly merry Christmas.

Christmas is a day of meaning and traditions, a special day spent in the warm circle of family and friends.

Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas.

Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love.

Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before! What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas...perhaps...means a little bit more!

Molded Plywood Mastery: The Eameses perfected molding plywood using heat and pressure, initially for leg splints for the Navy during WWII, which funded their furniture experiments.

The spring has stopped. Ice forms a thin veil over its mouth, trapping the water beneath in restless loops. Tiny bubbles twist against the frozen surface, straining to rise. Stones rimmed with frost line the edges, and bare branches dip toward it, hesitant, as if testing the weight of the cold. A bird lands nearby, shakes its wings, and flies off, leaving the air empty. The spring waits, silent but alive, holding its motion just beneath the ice, as though the world itself is holding its breath.
