of activities going on. Make a list, plan your
shopping, eat out to avoid cooking, and save gas and

locally...

there a little farmer in your family? If so, then
you have to take a short drive to Atlanta to Central

fried pickle appetizers! Want to see a menu
before you go? Click here.

This illustration by Charles Santore from
the book "The Night Before Christmas" shows Santa Claus smoking
a pipe. A new book version of "Twas the Night Before
Christmas" has been released that eliminates all references to a
smoking Santa. Santore's version keeps the traditional lines
from the 189-year-old holiday poem by Clement C. Moore.
