Quotes of the Week

Sorry the quotes and recipes are late this week- I had no internet access and am scarily bogged down with makeup work from being sick. Here they are though- all are lyrics from holiday songs. Quote 1: "Silver bells, silver bells It's Christmas time in the city Ring-a-ling, hear them sing Soon it will be Christmas day" Silver Bells Jay Livingston and Ray Evans All Lyrics found here Where do you do most of your shopping for Christmas presents? Quote 2: Over the river and through the woods To Grandmother's house we go. The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh Through white and drifted snow. No Author Attributed Are you traveling for the holidays? Quote 3: Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul With a corncob pipe and a button nose and two eyes made out of coal Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale they say He was made of snow but the children know how he came to life one day No Author Attributed What is the coolest snowman you have ever made?

In 2006, then-editor Steve Smith of The Spokesman-Review had the idea of starting a publication for an often forgotten audience: teenagers. The Vox Box was a continuation of the Vox, an all-student staffed newspaper published by The Spokesman-Review. High school student journalists who staffed the Vox made all content decisions as they learn about the trade of journalism. This blog's mission was to give students an opportunity to publish their voices. The Vox Box and the Vox wrapped up in June 2009, but you can follow former staffers' new blog at http://voxxiez.blogspot.com.
