My favorite cards
Except for last year, I have been a consistent card sender during the holidays. Typically, my husband and I make the card together: (I’m concept and words, he’s illustrations.) I cook because I love to eat, and I send cards because I love receiving them. Instead of bills, my mail these days is full of cards and best wishes from friends and family. This year I got two cards with text that I especially enjoyed. The first one is from Barbara Lee, an art philanthropist and supporter of women in politics. The words follow:
“A snowflake is one of the most fragile creations. But look what they do when they stick together. Wishing you warmth, light, and happiness this holiday season and throughout the year.”
The second card is from Bob Gagnon, a local plumber. Here are the words to Bob’s card:
“Dashing through the snow,
In a one man Plumbing truck.
O’er the road he goes,
Hope he don’t get stuck.
Our pipes are leaking bad,
Our Boilers cold it’s sad,
When Bob gets here he’ll fix it up,
And then we’ll all be glad.
Oh! Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells,
The heat is on its way.
The plumbing’s fixed; the pipes don’t leak,
Now it’s Bob we have to pay!
