He is behind the series that proves that there is more to coincidence than meets the eye. Good morn g ing to you, and Merry Christmas, and happy day. And this is coming from one of the today show viewers. Kate in melbourne, florida, and she had been struggling with so many Health Issues that had kept her from getting anything but a parttime job at cracker barrel, but she was is the still finding it tough to pay her bills. It was impossible for her to be able to afford the fly to her sons wedding, but kate kept her faith. She prayed for a god wink. So take a look at this one. I love my job at cracker barrel. As a cashier, because i love talking to people. But on the eve my son was getting married, i was feeling so sad, and then two cheerful Flight Attendants angie and ruben from Southwest Airlines came up to pay their bill. I asked them what route they fly. They said back and forth to vegas. So i joked, hey, if you are heading there now, how about strapping me into to a parachute and dropping me over phoenix, and i told them my sad story that i had to miss my sons wedding the next day. They told me how sorry they were, and paid the bill, and went on their way. Five minutes later, angie and ruben returned wearing smiles. Can you get tomorrow off, ruben wanted to know, we found a southwest buddy pass in our bag in the car. It is a complimentary standby ticket. I was dumb founded and i began to cry. All of the sudden, i heard, she sure can get tomorrow off. That is my coworker katrina who volunteered to take my shift. Angie got out the phone right there at the register, and booked the flight right there out of orlando and the next morning i showed up as a surprise for my son and my new daught daughterinlaw h. It was a wonderful wedding, and definite definitely the best god wink i ever had. Oh, so that is a good story. They are all good. Oh, good. And listen, there is a followup to this story. Tell us. Because when kate got home from the wedding, an ji the Flight Attendant called to hear about the wedding, but also to offer kate a job as a nanny for her two children, and now with two parttime jobs, kate can pay her bills and put presents under the Christmas Tree. Oh, thank you, christmas squi squire. Things sometimes seem hopeless in this world sometimes, but not today. Not today. And how to set a beautiful and functional table coming up. That is beautiful. Why do i cook for the holidays . To share with family to carry on traditions to come together, even when were apart in stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, and more, swanson® makes holiday dishes delicious and were gonna serve sunday businedinner off a counter wiped with jasmine sparkle . I got salmonella just thinking about it. Me too. You want clean, get a cleaner with bleach in it. Clorox means clean. When i booked your, place, my friends thought i was crazy. But this morning, a city id never been to felt like home. Thank you for sharing the world with me. Airbnb. Belong anywhere. Thwith aches, chills,g. And fever, theres no such thing as a little flu. And it needs a big solution an antiviral. So when the flu hits, call your doctor right away and up the ante with antiviral tamiflu. Prescription tamiflu is an antiviral that attacks the flu virus at its source and helps stop it from spreading in the body. Tamiflu is fda approved to treat the flu in people two weeks of age and older whose flu symptoms started within the last two days. Before taking tamiflu, tell your doctor if youre pregnant, nursing, have Serious Health conditions, or take other medicines. If you develop an allergic reaction, a severe rash, or signs of unusual behavior, stop taking tamiflu and call your doctor immediately. Children and adolescents in particular may be at an increased risk of seizures, confusion, or abnormal behavior. The most common side effects are mild to moderate nausea and vomiting. Antiflu . Go antiviral with tamiflu. It is Christmas Day which means it is only hours away from serving the holiday meal. Are you singing again . It is the same one. Down at the five and ten if you open up the pages of kathie lees book it is called good gifts and you can see that every table is set with design, and you can see that she did it with our very own decorator bianca borges. And you look so festive today. Yes, it is the day. And setting the table is important, ive heard. I have heard the rumors. Yes, it is. Yeah, we worked beautifully together with andy when we did this book, and i tried to use everything that is awe then the tick to my home. And these are my beautiful lenox beautiful christmas plates and the cigsignature way that i alw do my napkins, and i like to do that and put it there, and it adds a little height, but it disappear disappears when everybody sits dow down. And another thing, some tables are so cluttered that you dont know where to put anything. And you want to have enough space for food. One of the main things is that once you have picked the dinner plate, make extra plate and then divide the food into two and put it in both ends of the food. So it does not have to go all of the to way around the table. Yes, and the mashed potatoes and passing hot gravy is not easy on a table this big. Right. It will get cold. And because you are dividing it into two, you dont have to have such large plates. They can be smaller to serve. And appetizers . You put the food on top, and people will see that and start gathering, and of course, pouring wine will do the same thing. And also, the centerpiece there. And you can see the small clusters of nflowers and kathie lee did that throughout the whole book. It is a burst, but you are not going to be eating the flowers, and set an ambiance, but not overtake the room. And you can still see the person across from you. But the center piece of food is very good with the nutcrackers and the clementines, because it gives people who need something to do who dont want dessert. Check out good gift books. Org and the proceeds go to help salvation army. Were only human. We. Get. Angry. Out of control, mad to the core, angry. So cancer, youve got two options. Get out of the way or get rolled over. Anger. Just one reason more of us are surviving cancer than dying from it. Give now to the american cancer society. This holiday, give the gift of ferrero rocher. Ferrero rocher.

Christmas eve dinner ignited a fire in a livermore home. Fire crews say they saw flames and fixed smoke pouring out of the front of duplex when they arrived. The woman says oil overflowing from a pan caught fire and scalded her face. She was taken to the hospital. No one else was hurt. Happening today, a gift in the sky. For the first time in nearly 40c years, there was a full moon on Christmas Day. Its the last of the year and its called a full cold moon because it occurs at the start of winter.
