LET'S MAKE CHRISTMAS CHRISTIAN We have mixed materialism with the mercy of God in such a way that the real meaning of the Christmas customs and symbols have been lost to most of us. Take the word, CAROL. A carol is a song inspired by joy. "Noel" we sing! This means news, the good news of the birth of Christ. Christmas carols are the songs celebrating the good news ? the gospel -- to mankind. The Gay WREATH we hang on the door or in the window at Christmas time tells of the love of God. As the wreath has no beginning ? no ending - so the love of God goes on endlessly. CHRISTMAS HOLLY reminds us of the crown of thorns Christ wore -- with the red berries a symbol of drops of blood. The very Christmas TREE -- The evergreen is symbolic of the love of God that is ever fresh and vital. The star at its top recalls the Star in the East that appears on that first Christmas night. The CHRISTMAS CANDLE tells us of the Christmas Christ who is the light of the world. As a candle burns it gives light, and at the same time it is giving itself. Even SANTA CLAUS is a symbol of the good will, the kindness, the generosity that are typical of this happy season. Santa Claus is our name for good Saint Nicholas who lived in Asia Minor 300 years before Christ was bom. He was so kind to little children that we associate him with the spirit of Christmas giving. FRUITS AND VEGETABLES Colorful fruits and vegetables look good, retain their nutritive value and offer variety to meals -? if your prepare them right. Here's what 1 mean. Crisp raw fruits and vegetables make ex cellent salads, appetizers, snacks, relishes or desserts. And when you serve them raw. fruits and vegetables usually provide the greatest number of nutrients and the lowest number of calories. Of course, cooked fruits and vegetables can be delicious and nutritious -- if your prepare them right. For example, manv vegetables retain most of their nutrients, color and shape if you'll do this -- cook them in a small amount of water for the shortest time possible to make them edible. This principle of cooking is important, since some vitamins are soluable in water and easily destroyed by heat. Another change that might occur from overcooking is this - a dulling of color, especially in bright green vegetables. And there might be a breakdown of texture. So it's no wonder, a short cooking time is recommended for most fruits and vegetables. When you plan family meals, allow for four or more generous servings of fruits and vegetables each day. And include green leafy and deep yellow vegetables often. Then serve them raw -? or cook them as little as possible.
