I did make the hostess graphic - found the kitties on the Internet and just had to use them.

.45MAN, however, felt that they needed their own identities, so he did the eye-coloring.

Billie-blue, dansy loves purple, aqua for Aquamarine....then he just "freelanced" the others!

Teamwork - it's a beautiful thing!

I may have a chuckle to add. Goes alone with your iceskater theme.

During one of a nice snow days this winter, we always bring out out my baking tools to play in the snow. Bread pans make perfect bricks for forts, cookie cutters, spatualas, fun shaped cake tins, food dye....

Well, we have a nice little 3 foot hill that separates our house from our neighboors. My son is sliding down this on a cookie sheet. I'm standing at the top of this hill thinking to myself, I use to surf, skateboard, et al...this looks like fun...

I stand on the cookie sheet expecting to 'snowboard' down this hill. Ooops.

I go down and I went down hard! twisted my leg real good. (not broke, just embarrassing)

My son (6 y.o.) looks at me shocked and runs to the neighboors house, "mommy is hurt!"

I crawled over to the tree to pull myself up and tried to look as normal as possible when my neighboor came running out, "Hi Joan, want to play in the snow?" Don't think she bought it to well, she looked at me with an all knowing look, "Everything ok?". I think she knew my pride was hurt more than anything else.

Boy I felt stupid :P

Good Morning Meekie!

I hope it's only computer problems keeping nic away too!

hope she comes back soon.

[iceskater]

The car does look very familiar. :)

Hi, Martin!

I got one:

Never put your hands in the freezer while they're wet! (this is for the older non-self-defrosting fridges)

[Calpernia]

Someone did a study once that showed by age 3 kids could recognize up to 30 brands.

What if they recognize a drug name from the candy that is on an actual drug? Granted the packaging is the same as the candy; but the drug label is on it too.

We don't have any of the actual drugs in the house...but I don't think it was the best marketing move.

[Pippin]

GOOD MORNING ALL!

I have another piece of profundity

Never lean back in a chiar at the table with a sharpened pencil proped betwee you hand and the edge of the table!

It happened to me when I was a kid. I had a pencil go right through the palm of my hand and it hurt like heck!

[Pippin]

Good Morning, Cal!

[Calpernia]

That is right! I did get my fingers stuck to an ice tray I just filled and was trying to put in the freezer years ago! Forgot all about that.

[dutchess]

Dansy...excellent job today!!!!

Hugs to the Finest's favorite couple!

[Pippin]

You guessed that's what happened to me when I was still living at home and my parents had an old fridge. I was changing the ice trays and I touched the bottom of the freezer and got my middle,index and ring fingers so stuck that they had to use a kitchen knife to get me loose! OUCH!

Not to sound like a former pervert in chief but, I feel your pain!

[dutchess]

Goodmorning aeronaut!

[Pippin]
