Holiday Punch Sure To Please Everyone
No other time of the year brings with it as complete a return

at home at an informal “open house’
. at a more formal “recep
tion’’ ... at an after sports gathering. You don’t even need an
elegant punch bow! to have punch parties. Use a large colorful
plastic bowl with a few holiday stickers around the outside and
you’ll have a gay and festive serving piece. Or, if you’re having
a hot punch, serve it from a chafing dish.

pleases the whole family. A
typical example is a box or group
of seats for a season’s worth of

SPOOKING SPIRITS
In earlier times, Polish peasants
“drove” spirits away from their
crops during the 12 days between
Christmas and Epiphany. They
burned pine resin all night to
rout witches from their homes,
and on Christmas Eve, they
wrapped cloth around the base
of trees to keep spirits out, and
fired shots into fields to prevent
supernatural beings from harm
ing the land.
