For each day, you are to write a short note back to your loving partner about the gifts.

7 Wassail Extra Credit As early as the 12 th century, the Old English cheer of waes hael ( be well or be hale in other words, be in good health ) was a common holiday toast. The winter drink, normally a hot mixture of ale, honey, and spices, was usually poured into a large bowl-like glass. The evening s host would then toast his guests with waes hael, and they would reply drinc hael ( drink and be well ). Over time the toast came to be applied to the drink itself.

13 Gingerbread Houses History: This time of year, what smell is unmistakably both sweet and spicy, warming the heart as well as the belly? It's gingerbread and it has been a holiday tradition for centuries. Originally, in Medieval England, the term gingerbread simply meant "preserved ginger. The ginger was added to breads and pastries when it was found to have a preservative effect. During the 11th century, the sweet bread with spicy notes was introduced to Western Europe by the crusaders who were returning from the wars in the Mediterranean. Gingerbread making really became popular in 17th century Germany where bakers and craftsmen would display and sell their works of art at fairs and festivals. Many shapes were popular for different times of year. Flowers and animals were popular shapes at Easter, while angels and hearts were found at Christmas time. The tradition of making gingerbread houses at Christmas originated in North America with early settlers who brought their family recipes with them to the new world. "Lebkuchen," were large pieces of sweet cake flavored with ginger that German bakers used to build Hexenhaeusle, or witches' houses. We are probably all familiar with the fairytale, "Hansel and Gretel," where a young brother and sister are lost in the woods and come across a house made of candy and sweet treats. While this particular gingerbread house doesn't have the best reputation, there are many impressive Victorian-style houses built every year as part of some families' holiday traditions. The White House pastry chefs make a gingerbread house every year to be displayed in the State Dining Room during the season. This year's house is a different view of last year s re-creation of the original White House as it appeared in 1800 when John Adams became the first resident. The house took weeks to create and was made from about 300 pounds of gingerbread and chocolate, complete with over 800 hand-piped icicles clinging to the roof. Closer to home, The Lafayette Hotel has been hosting a gingerbread house contest for the past six years. According to Jennifer Auville, the hotel's general manager, they received 65 entrants for this year s contest from all age groups.
14 How to Make a Gingerbread house Gingerbread recipe: 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 cup molasses 11/2 teaspoons ginger 1 teaspoon allspice 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon cloves 2 teaspoons baking soda 1/2 cup margarine 1 egg, beaten 31/2 cups all-purpose flour In a medium saucepan, heat sugar, molasses, ginger, allspice, cinnamon, and cloves to boiling, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; stir in soda (it will foam up). Stir in margarine till melted. Stir in egg, then flour. On a floured surface, knead dough till mixed. Divide dough in half, wrap half with plastic wrap; set aside. Roll the other half of dough with a rolling pin until slightly thinner than1/4 inch. Cut according to specifications. Gingerbread "glue" recipe: 2 large egg whites 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice 3 cups confectioners sugar, sifted Use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites with the lemon juice. Add the sifted powdered sugar and beat on low speed until smooth. Use immediately. STEP 1: Make a Pattern You will need a ruler, pencil and paper. (Cardboard from a cereal box works well, too.) Make a pattern for the long walls: draw and cut out two rectangles 10 inches long by 5 inches high. Draw a door and windows on one of the long walls: measuring from either side, draw vertical lines at 11/2, 21/2, 4, 6, 71/2 and 81/2 inches. Measure 3 inches up from the bottom at the 4- and 6-inch lines and connect these with a horizontal line this is your door. Measure 2 and 3 inches up from the bottom on the other lines and connect at these points with horizontal lines to create two square windows on either side of your door. Cut out the door and windows. Make windows on the other long wall: measuring from either side, draw vertical lines at 2, 3, 7 and 8 inches. Measure and draw horizontal connecting lines 2 and 3 inches up from the bottom to create two more windows. Cut out the squares. Make a pattern for the short walls: draw a rectangle - 6 inches wide by 5 inches high. Situating your pattern in front of you so that the rectangle is horizontal, find the center point along the top of the rectangle (the 3-inch mark), and measure and mark a point 2 inches above the top of the rectangle. Draw lines from this point to the top corners of the rectangle this is your roofline. (Essentially, you're adding a triangle sitting on top of the rectangle.) Cut out this shape in one piece. Make a window: measure and draw vertical lines at the 2- and 4-inch marks; measure and draw horizontal connecting lines 2 and 3 inches up from the bottom. Cut out the window. Make a pattern for the roof: draw and cut out a rectangle 41/2 inches by 11 inches. Make a pattern for the chimney: draw and cut out two squares, each 2 inches by 2 inches. Put one of these aside. Find the center of the other square and measure and mark a point1/2 inch toward one of the sides. Draw lines from this point to two adjacent corners. (You're essentially taking a triangle-shaped bite out of one of the sides; this is so it will straddle the roofline). Cut out the triangle.
15 STEP 2: Cut out the house Roll out gingerbread dough to a thickness of1/2 inch. Use the pattern pieces you've just made to cut out four walls (two long, two short), two roof pieces, and two of each of the chimney pieces (four total). Cut out the door and windows on the long walls. Keep the door-shaped piece to be baked along with the wall and roof and chimney pieces. Trim1/8 inch off the door piece, all the way around. Cut out the windows in the short walls. Bake on a cookie sheet at 325 degrees for about 12 minutes, then cool. STEP 3: Build the house Spread your frosting "mortar" thickly along the short edges of the walls. Stand them up on a tray and join them together to make a box with an open top; let dry for about an hour. Spread frosting thickly along the top edge of the walls, all the way around, and on the long edge of one of the roof pieces. (Use soup cans to prop the walls up while they dry.) Place the roof pieces on the roof, pushing them together firmly so that they meet solidly at the roofline. Prop them with something solid (like cookbooks) to hold them so that they don't slide down as they dry. (They should be reasonably solid in about an hour.) Use frosting to prop the door at an inviting angle while the roof dries. Spread frosting along the inside of both the cut-out triangles and along the side edges of all four chimney pieces. Build your chimney on the roofline, about 1/3 of the way in from the side of the house. You can't prop anything on the roof (it's not strong enough) so have something ready a piece of plastic wrap or a clean strip of rag or cheesecloth to wrap around the chimney to hold it steady while it dries. Decorate your house with candy, using the frosting to secure it: frame windows and the door, edge the roof, the sky's the limit! Drip some frosting from the eaves to suggest icicles; dust with powdered sugar for snow. Be creative and have fun!

17 PLAY DOUGH RECIPE 2 cups of flour 1 cup of salt 2 tablespoons cream of tartar 2 cups of water 1 table spoon of mineral oil food coloring ( your choice) glue glitter other craft items To make the play dough recipe you will mix all ingredients in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring until stiff. Allow the mixture to cool, then knead the dough by rolling it and squeezing it in your hands. The play dough must be stored in a zip lock baggie until you use it or it will dry out and become hard. To make the ornaments you will need Christmas cookie cutters in all different shapes. Roll out the play dough and cut the dough with the cookie cutters. Place a hole at the top of the shape for a hanger to go through. You can use pretty ribbon, yarn, or string to pull through the hole for the hanger. Decorate your ornaments with glitter and other craft items.
