The Charcot Leyden crystals are a guise for snow crystals, the red cells may perhaps represent red delicious apples before man made ornaments were inovated.

Charcot-Leyden crystals. They are a degradation product of eosinophils and tend to appear in certain parasite infestations.
A very Merry Christmas to all of you!
