The winter chapters came to mind during your description of home with kids. For me it was required reading in HS American lit.Noelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10445980997391559036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5851687726423267832.post-9581639742099131572008-12-17T11:24:00.000-06:002008-12-17T11:24:00.000-06:00peppermint cookie recipes that are not in my colle...peppermint cookie recipes that are not in my collection? come one liz.

That drift looks thick and nasty as well as high.<BR/><BR/>This morning I was thankful it didn't reach -30 F and that the snowplow didn't leave very much snow in the driveway when it went by.
