'Twas the Night Before Christmas ...

... and visions of sugar-plums danced through their heads.

  4. What a romantic vision of childhood. How different children's dolls and other(electronic) toys are today. Look how the dolls and the kids have the same complexions and rosy cheeks. Strange to think if not for Clement C. Moore's poem, the "sugar plum," like so many other 19th century foods, would be gone from our language and our imagination.

    Joyeux Noël!
