The Cinnamon Bear: Chapter 10
It’s another adventure with The Cinnamon Bear! Last time, Judy and Jimmy were on the Magic Island, where the Roly-Poly Policeman had taken their Silver Star for his uniform. But before the kids got to him, Crazy Quilt Dragon ran off with the Silver Star again!
Today: Chapter 10: Professor Whiz
In this chapter, Paddy, it seems, crossed an invisible boundary line, and so do the children, reuniting the group once again. An educated owl. Professor Whiz tells them that he’d spotted Crazy Quilt run into the nearby home of the feared Wintergreen Witch. They follow but find the home empty, except for a magical picture of a great forest. Stepping through the frame of the Picture into the woods, they meet tiny Fraidy Cat, who in a wee voice tells of a great giant who lives there. The trio and the kitten try to run when the giant approaches.

Christmas Wreath Cookies
One year, I made these cookies with my kids. They were quick and fun for them to make. I thought that maybe we would try them again this year using rice krispies instead of corn flakes?
Anyone have any other variations that would be quick and easy for children to prepare?
1/2 cup butter
3 cups miniature marshmallows
1/2 tsp almond extract
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp green food coloring
4 cups corn flakes
Melt butter, add marshmallows. When mixture is smooth, add extracts, coloring, and cereal. Make into wreath shapes.
Decorate with red cinnamon candies and silver balls.
Fractured Christmas Carols
Our family is a big music family. During our “spare” time (hehehe), we have a DJ business – so music is a big part of our lives. And those fractured song lyrics are a big hit.
In keeping with the “spirit” of Christmas, I decided to share some fractured Christmas carol lyrics with you. Feel free to share some of your own!
- Deck the halls with Buddy Holly
- We three kings of porridge and tar
- On the first day of Christmas my tulip gave to me
- Later on we’ll perspire, as we dream by the fire
- He’s making a list, chicken and rice
- Noel, Noel. Barney’s the King of Israel
- With the jelly hot proclaim
- Olive, the other reindeer
- Frosty, the Snowman is a ferret elf, I say
- Sleep in heavenly peas
- You’ll go down in Listerine
- Oh, what fun it is to ride with one horse, soap, and hay
- Come, froggy faithful
- Good tidings we bring to you and your kid
Merry Christmas, everyone!
