Once upon a time, in a land far far away, there lived a wood cutter at the edge of the forest.  He lived there with his wife and two children.

Every day, the wood cutter went into the forest to cut wood.  In the middle of the day, he would sit on a log and eat his lunch.  At the end of the day, he would bring the tree trunk back to his house.

Around the holidays we all start feeling a little stressed.  We have family coming in, cooking to do, preparations to be made and shopping to be done.  No wonder why we get headaches around this time of the year. 

It is the time for cooking, eating and being merry, so you need to be careful of those leftovers in your refrigerator.  We all love leftover turkey and ham after the holidays, but it can only be kept in the refrigerator for so long.  Hopefully you will never have to deal with food poisoning, but if you do you will want to know what to do quickly.
