Every Christmas, for as long as I can remember my heart has been touched by The Wonderful Window by Beth Vardon, illustrated by Charlot Byj. I believe it was written in the 50's and I would likely have received it for Christmas sometime in the 60's. It's no longer in print so I hope I'm not violating any copyright laws by sharing it with you. As soon as the patchwork was tacked into place The angel came in with a smile on his face. And both he and Katie got down on their knees, Praying: Lord, could you spare one small miracle -- please? That night, all the people who happened to pass Saw a wonderful window of glistening glass! And the light from the candles was shining inside On the angel and Katie -- both beaming with pride. (Just take a look now, while the happy choir sings...You'll see -- even Katie --- has almost got wings!)
Believe it or not we didn't think about the fact that it was Hallowe'en weekend when we chose this wine from our cellar (aka the pantry). We picked it because we were having fish and most of the wine we keep on hand is red. This one is a chardonnay called Skulls from Fullglass vineyard in Tranmere South Australia. It was very fruit forward and didn't appeal to me much. The BC Liquor Store website didn't give it a very good review either and it received a two star rating with 41 people voting. The label's kind of cool though...
