Yes.......we caught this Rudolph red nose reindeer trespassing on our farm late last night .....grazing on our crops. The neighbors and Farmer Deno ....was able to round her up and get her into a pen. We will display her during our farm Spring tours.

We are waiting for that ol' Santa Claus too....to capture him as well. Last year he broke our chimney and up top of that....he ate MY cookies and milk. Farmer Deno plans to catch him too....and put him in a pen. Will display him during our farm spring tours.

Just think.....you will be able to see him every day here at the farm!

The Natomas Farm postings will be quiet for about days...busy with the holidays. Blood Oranges will be available when we come back.

    My division was stationed in Normandy, France, at the time of the Allied invasion on June 6, 1944. Toward the end of August or early September, Canadian troops captured me near Dieppe.10 I was with a small group of men who were cut off from our main company and overrun by motorized Allied units. For several days we wandered around searching for our unit, until one night we strayed into a field camp of Canadian soldiers. You can well imagine the astonishment all around when we suddenly appeared in their midst. The Canadians didn’t have a guard posted. This was probably better for all because otherwise we might have exchanged gunfire. Instead, we peacefully turned over our weapons and in return received cigarettes.…

    The Grinch sneaks into young Cindy-Lou Who's house, steals the stockings, the presents, food, the Christmas tree, and even the log from the fire, but not before encountering the 2-year old Who.

    They say honesty is the best policy. But when it comes to Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy, are we being dishonest with our children or just telling those stories. In the essays, “Santa Claus Isn’t Coming to Town” written by Allison and “Truth and the Santa Claus Moment,” written by Corey Harbaugh, the writers discuss the values of honesty and the moments we choose to believe in.…

    I had the opportunity to use a fancy studio in the Lower East Side gratis recently. It happened to occur in a time when I needed to make music more than at pretty much any other point in my life. I am truly blessed with some excellent friends. It was a harrowing time. It is without question the most emotionally honest thing I have ever been involved in making. Here's the first single.…

    “Maybe there really is a Santa Claus.” Many ideas can be interpreted from this simple sentence written in Miranda's diary, on page 139 of Life As We Knew It, by Susan Beth Pfeffer! Santa Claus, the world's beloved giver of gifts, transporter of toys, rider of reindeer, is more important than you might think. Most children only realize the minimum, that they have to behave, in order for Santa to bring them more presents. In reality, Santa is giving them the best gift of all,everlasting hope. Santa allows kids to have something to look forward to all year round, his arrival. The thought of his presence is like a beacon of hope, or belief for people of all ages. The only problem is, when kids find out he isn't real. That day, where they overhear…

    At the same time that Santa permeated magazines and overshadowed Christmas, other famous figures appeared to promote the holiday. In January 1939, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer was created by Robert May of Chicago. At this time, the United States still struggled to climb out of the Great Depression, and businesses scrambled to turn a profit in a floppy economy. May’s company, Montgomery Ward, commissioned him to write a quick Christmas-themed book that could cheaply and effectively win the hearts of children. With this thought in mind, May created a small book, only 89 couplets, that included borrowed lines from Clement Clarke Moore’s “A Visit from St. Nicholas” and theme’s from Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tale “The Ugly Duckling”. Rudolph’s 32 page tale became a gimmick for children; a promotional gift awarded to children who visited any of the department’s 620 locations. The store gimmick worked; the department store handed out 2.4 million books in 1939 and 3.6 million in 1946. (Klein) With six million books indirectly promoting the department store, Christmas became a bigger brand in the market, at least for Montgomery Ward. The 32 page book has since been stripped and modified into a short film. Added characters in the film, like the Abominable Snowman and Hermy the Elf have altered the content of the children’s story and have added more labels for commercial markets in future years. These…

    “Rudolf, get your delightful reindeers to come here and run like the wind because we are going to be late for delivering the presents!” Santa exclaims. But Blitzen doesn’t feel well and does not want to go on the journey with them. He feels as sick as a puppy. Santa says, “Reindeers never take a break on Christmas Day. Reindeers have to rapidly be ready to run. Just sleep on my sleigh the whole ride.” says Santa, “Time flies, we’ll be done in no time.” “Fine Santa, I’ll do it.” Blitzen replies sorrowfully. As they are soaring through the inky sky, Santa ignores sick Blitzen behind him and Blitzen falls out of the sleigh into the chimney of Scrooge’s house. Oh, is Scrooge angry! He calls the police right away, but right after he dials…

    I ask myself is it morally wrong to tell them that Santa is real. My religious and faith in “God” say that I celebrate this holiday because it is “Jesus” birthday. I tell my nieces and nephew yes there is a Santa but the real reason we celebrate Christmas is because December 25 is the birthday of “Jesus” it is when he was…

    I felt expelled and exiled, sitting in a room filled only with a bed. White walls which painted no imagination, no hope just emptiness; yet they still assured me I was meant to be here. Every day was the same as the last, every memory I captured had slowly escaped. I was considered dangerous, vile and out of control; these words constantly surrounded me, swirling around in the echoes of the halls. 15 years I have been here, and still not once has my voice box being strained. Everyday new comers are filling the halls with recent experiences, these are the only colour these halls ever hold, the only colour we are ever able to grasp and use to paint our own ideas of community; they enable us oldies to once again imagine. Soon enough the halls go back to plain white and emotionless passages and so to do my imaginations, the images that i had held slowly fade over and over again until i am left with nothing. This only reminded me of what was familiar.…
