(See pages 16-17 for the story of - The first Christmas card) Old Christmas Cards often showed idealistic scenes of horses pulling stagecoaches along snowy village streets like the ones illustrated on this page. In reality travelling on stagecoaches two centuries ago was somewhat different. Charles Dickens gives an account of his journey to Bowes, situated on the northern edge of North Yorkshire, which illustrates the travelling conditions of the times. (See pages 22-27 for the story of – Charles Dickens) It was at the end of January 1838 in severe winter conations when he and his friend and illustrator, Hablot Knight Browne, nickname Phiz, caught the Glasgow Mail coach out of London. They had a difficult, two-day journey, travailing 255 miles in 27 hours up the Great North Road, which was covered in snow. They turned left into a blizzard at Scotch Corner and then along the wilds of the trans-Pennine turnpike road. The coach stopped at about 11pm on the second day at the George and New Inn at Greta Bridge on the A66.

  • Get Your Glitter on Tasty Treats Santa Strawberries • Prep: 20 Minutes
    Get Your Glitter On Tasty Treats Santa Strawberries • Prep: 20 minutes Ingredients: • 12 strawberries • 1 can squirty cream/whipped topping (or make your own whipped cream) • a handful of chocolate sprinkles Directions: 1. Using a paring knife, slice the leafy end off each strawberry so they stand up evenly. Then slice the tip off to make a little hat. 2. Using a spoon or a large icing tip, place a large dollop (about 1-2 tsp) of whipped cream on top of the strawberry base. Plop the little hat on top. Add another small dollop of whipped cream to the tip of the hat to make a mock pom-pom. 3. Place two chocolate sprinkles in the Santa’s “face” for the eyes. Using a toothpick, place two very small splotches of whipped cream down the front of the strawberry for buttons. 4. You’re done! It’s that easy. If you don’t eat them right away, store them in the fridge to keep them cold. Santa doesn’t do well with heat. Peppermint Polar Bear Creams • Prep: 30 minutes (no cooking) • Makes 15-20 Ingredients: • 250g icing sugar • 1 egg white, beaten • few drips of peppermint essence • 15 chocolate sweets Directions: 1. Sieve the icing sugar into a large bowl. Mix in the egg white, a little at a time – stop adding it when you have a soft dough that feels like plasticine. 2. Add 3 drops of the peppermint essence, mix well and taste. Add another drop if it isn’t minty enough. 3. Roll half the mixture into 15 balls, about the size of cherry tomatoes, then flatten them with your hand to make the bear heads.
