I loved that magazine. In fact, it inspired one of my favorite holiday baking memories: stained glass window cookies. I was 11, and I'd broken my wrist in early December. The plaster cast was just right for smashing baggies of those shiny brachs hard candies into smithereens. The cookie dough was terrible, and the cookies themselves looked better than they tasted, but candy crushing and stained-glass cookie making was wonderful. Ah, National Geographic World!
