Over the river, and through the wood -Oh, how the wind does blow! It stings the toes and bites the nose as over the ground we go. Over the river, and through the wood,To have a first-rate play. Hear the bells ring, "Ting-a-ling-ding",Hurrah for Thanksgiving Day! Over the river, and through the wood Trot fast, my dapple-gray! Spring over the ground like a hunting-hound,For this is Thanksgiving Day. Over the river, and through the wood -And straight through the barnyard gate,We seem to go extremely slow,It is so hard to wait! Over the river, and through the wood -Now Grandmother's cap I spy! Hurrah for the fun! Is the pudding done? Hurrah for the pumpkin pie Thank you to all my teachers from Owasco Elementary School in Auburn, NY who faithfully every year had our whole class sing this song right before Thanksgiving break! Thank you Mrs. Northrup, Mrs. Chapin, Mrs. Burgette, and Mrs. VanArsdale for all the wonderful memories. You were the best! Michele, your grateful student from the 1970's. Happy Thanksgiving! (This Thanksgiving song originally appeared as a poem written by Lydia Maria Child in Flowers for Children, volume 2, in 1844. The painting is by Anna Mary Robertson Moses, "Over the River to Grandma's house", 1947)

Western Interiors - Memorable Issue

With the recent demise of shelter magazines in this economy (Cottage Living and O at Home to name two) it's great when you see a magazine put out a stellar issue. <a href="http://www.westerninteriors.com/">Western Interiors Dec/Jan 2009</a> issue is one of their recent bests. I gauge that on the "fact" that I've picked up and sat down with this issue at least 4 times in the last day. The cover to this issue is misleading as the inside is full of a range of design that would appeal to many tastes. Features include a home by Kenneth Brown and a peek into Barclay Butera's Park City apartment. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTXVQJsTC3XlUBTlrwK25A01PSuycJ8lcg_45qFKX7idaOHQmdxLxhy_nNhonIsjlHoW8q3uhyphenhyphenwUeGUQ6V9NL1BNF5CD-S1dnK2DnkDAQnNe127s6QLJmJed2YarE1NOgCfAeSdgR1CHA/s1600-h/beard03.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5271157866650924642" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTXVQJsTC3XlUBTlrwK25A01PSuycJ8lcg_45qFKX7idaOHQmdxLxhy_nNhonIsjlHoW8q3uhyphenhyphenwUeGUQ6V9NL1BNF5CD-S1dnK2DnkDAQnNe127s6QLJmJed2YarE1NOgCfAeSdgR1CHA/s800/beard03.jpg" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" /></a>These <a href="http://www.westerninteriors.com/feature-san-francisco-chic">rooms</a> were created by architect Richard Beard and interior designer Michael Booth.
