    Gifts from a Stranger

    Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there stood a shimmering white castle in a valley by the sea. In this castle lived a beautiful little girl whose name was Princess Meredith. She loved to play in the garden where beautiful flowers grew. Her favorite flowers were the golden buttercups which matched the color of her hair. Because of this, her father, the king, called her his beautiful little Buttercup.

    One spring day, she decided to take a ride on her handsome white horse, Dancer, out into the countryside where the flowers in the meadows sparkled with the morning dew. Dancer was a very strong horse, and loved to gallop. He always carried Princess Meredith with the utmost care, and always knew to stay away from the low hanging branches in the trees. Dancer loved Princess Meredith, and she loved him.

    Princess Meredith knew exactly where Dancer could get the very best to eat in the meadow. The lush meadow grass was the tenderest down by the creek where the water was cool and babbled over the stones.

    So Princess Meredith went to the stable and had the stable boy put Dancer’s saddle on. Princess Meredith was very fond of the beautiful saddle her uncle, Duke Richard, had made for Dancer. With his own hands he had inlaid intricate patterns of gold thread into the shapes of her favorite flowers, and accented them with shining red rubies, bright green emeralds and sparkling diamonds.

    The stable boy helped Princess Meredith climb up onto the saddle on Dancer’s back and opened the door of the stable. Princess Meredith urged Dancer on with a slight kick of her heels, and away they went down the cobblestone street toward the gate.

    One of Princess Meredith’s favorite things was the wonderful aroma of freshly baked bread made by the kindly old baker. He made long loaves of bread, biscuits baked with delicious herbs, cakes with icing, and her favorite of all, warm rolls made with cinnamon and raisins sprinkled on top.
