"Awake, My Fair"
Yehudah ha-Levi
"Awake, my fair, my love, awake,
So that I may gaze upon you!
And if one is eager to kiss your lips,
In your dreams this do you see,
Lo, then I myself of your dream
The interpreter will be. "

GARDEN GOODIES~SHARE OUR GARDEN RECIPE #0083 CHEESE KISSES
Each of these bite-size savory (low cal and gluten-free!) treats has a bit of dried fruit tucked inside for a slightly sweet surprise. They make wonderful holiday gifts as well as elegant little hors d'oeuvres.
(3) tablespoons hazelnuts, or pistachios (3/4 ounce), finely chopped
(6) ounces creamy goat cheese or port wine cheese
(6) dried apricots, or dried figs, each cut into quarters
Instructions:
Line a plate or small tray with wax paper. Place nuts in a shallow dish. Scoop a heaping 1/2 teaspoon of cheese and press a piece of dried apricot (or fig) into the center. Wrap the cheese around the dried fruit to form a ball. Roll the ball in the chopped nuts to create a crust; set on the plate or tray. Repeat with remaining cheese, dried fruit and nuts.

WHAT IN THE WORLD?
On today in American history, people in gardens everywhere were talking about:
1793 The Capitol cornerstone is laid
1927 The Columbia Broadcast System made its debut (CBS). The group of network and radio stations would later expand to TV
1960 Fidel Castro arrives in New York City as the head of the Cuban delegation to the United Nations.
1961 Bobby Vee earns a #1 hit with "Take Good Care Of My Baby"
1975 Patty Hearst captured
1996 Baseball Roger Clemons matches his own record by striking out 20
2012 A female giant panda at the Smithsonian's National Zoo is a mother for the second time, giving birth to a cub. The birth late Sunday by Mei Xiang was a surprise after years of failed pregnancies.
