It’s been a long, hard year for us all. Time for a cocktail, some relaxation, and the tough mental and physical preparation for whatever New Year’s Eve celebration you may grace as 2011 draws to a close and we ring in the New Year.
Big Apple Christmas

This year Kish decided it would be interesting to go to New York City for Christmas. It was an inspired idea. Some people find the pace of New York City overwhelming; others just can’t stand the crowds. If you fall into one of those categories, you should stay away during the holidays. The calendar is [...]
A Simple Card And The Spirit Of Christmas

Christmas isn’t about getting gifts, it’s about giving them. Sometimes the gifts can be material, but often the best gifts are intangible ones — in the form of expressions of good will, or sharing a happy memory, or spending time together while holiday music plays in the background. This sweet and simple story about a [...]

Rock Center Christmas

According to Ordinance 330(j) of the New York City Municipal Code, if you are in the Big Apple in December you are required to visit the holiday decorations at Rockefeller Center at least once. (The Rockettes, however, are optional). Yesterday, we satisfied our legal obligations. The area around Rockefeller Center was jammed. The skaters were [...]

The Ohio Statehouse is decorated in its holiday best. Lit and ornamented Christmas trees are found at the corners of the lawn, and wreathes and swags, some complete with plastic apples and pears, have been placed on the Statehouse itself.
Christmas In Columbus

Like other cities, Columbus gets a bit gussied up for the holidays. It’s entertaining to wander around downtown, enjoying the decorations and the energy and talent that goes into them. At Columbus City Hall, the towering statue of Christopher Columbus — which depicts the intrepid explorer with a curiously flat top of the head — [...]
Christmas With Dino

There are lots of good Christmas albums out there. One of the better ones is Christmas With Dino — Dean Martin’s happy contribution to the holiday season. Christmas With Dino is a good example of intelligent matching of song and artist. Dean Martin’s well-lubricated, jovial singing style isn’t exactly well-suited to religious carols like O [...]
Egg No

Kish got two quarts of egg nog for the holidays. She did so because, some years in the past, one of the boys made the offhand comment that they had tried egg nog and it wasn’t bad. That innocent remark probably means we will buy at least one container of egg nog for the holidays, [...]
