(I do have a copy of that book an antique first edition at that, and some of the most lovely plates in it as well in full color. Illustrator for this copy is Jesse Wilcox Smith, whom I am found of art wise. It was one of my favorites, and I had first searched for a copy, by reading an part of it in an old children's library book series. I think it may have been one called my book house, that also led me to seek out a copy of water babies. )

It seems we have the same edition. Or rather, had. I gave my 1919 edition away some time ago.

(Librarian mode activated. It appears they did both appear in the My Book House series, albeit in different volumes:
Vol. 3, including "Verses on Kingsley's Water Babies"
Vol. 5, including "Little Diamond and the North Wind" by George MacDonald)

(A little serious, but you helped me get through things once, I thought this would be helpful for others too.)

As Carmen both IC and sometimes OOC, you seem to have it all together. Did you ever have insecurities or ever feel inadequate? How did you develop stability and be such a good boss?

    Did you know.....The original candy canes were straight sugar sticks that were often used to decorate Christmas trees. The first historical reference to the cane shape was in 1670, when the choirmaster at Cologne Cathedral in Germany bent the sugar sticks into the shape of a shepherd's staff. Candy canes remained white until the early 20th century when red stripes and peppermint flavor became popular.

    ((So... the folks called me upstairs to help figure out how to get their SSI paperwork to the new landlord... we were discussing it, when the landlord emailed that all three of us are denied... mostly the main thing was "poor rental history; insufficient income (they're on SSI); no credit file; if no judgment was rendered on them after they appealed the initial eviction notice, then they gave their 30 days notice, can they rescind that (this is Minnesota, ya shure, ya betcha) and stay?

    Michelangelo wrote a poem about how much he hated painting the Sistine Chapel...One translation of the poem he sent to his friend begins: I’ve already grown a goiter from this torture, hunched up here like a cat in Lombardy(or anywhere else where the stagnant water’s poison).
