Research conducted at Cornell University in New York showed that people who had not eaten before going shopping bought more food than those who were not hungry. Food you buy when you are ravenous will usually be high in calories, unhealthy, and expensive—you are more likely to buy a bag of cookies than a bunch of spinach, for example. So, do yourself a favor and have a snack before you hit the supermarket aisles. (by Tania Pattison)

On an afternoon train, I heard a small boy ask his mother. “What if Santa Claus gets the coronavirus? I won’t be able to get a present, will I?” The passengers around them were all eyes and ears. They waited for his mother’s answer. She told her son, “Don’t worry, dear. Santa Claus has been already vaccinated!” That’s good to know. All the passengers listening to the conversation looked very happy. The origin of Christmas was to hear good news. I hope that next year’s Christmas will be full of good news! (by a Jaremaga reader)
