Simple pleasures count for a lot, especially during the holidays. Just ask the Grinch, who watched in amazement as Christmas in Whoville "came without ribbons! It came without tags! It came without packages, boxes or bags! ... Maybe Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more!"
