How many remember this from your childhood?
SNOW ICE CREAM RECIPES
These are basic, but you can use your imagination for various flavors. (Use chocolate milk, or use eggnog and rum flavoring, etc.) It’s fun, and it’s good! : )
Once enough snow has fallen for there to be clean snow.

*sigh*
...well, it was about 80 degrees and sunny here in L.A. today.
No snow = no snow ice cream. :(
Hah hah hah! Hope D.C. gets buried in two feet. Then they can call Algore for help!
Yep - remember snow cream well.
Some loved it - but me, never a fan of it. Too sweet!
But we made it after every measurable snow anyway!
Abd we played outside in the snow, usually sledding, til our lips and hands and feet turned blue!
>>.... (being a Bama native, I often wonder how Northerners react when they see Southern schools close whenever theres even the lightest dusting).
I hate to tell you this, but we usually start laughing ;).

The good thing about snow ice cream is that you can adjust the ingredients to taste! : ) My daddy always wanted it sweet. I’m like you in that regard. I don’t like it quite so sweet...always added a little more snow to mine!
Yes, I remember how my fingers and toes burned and ached when they were “thawing out”. But, it didn’t stop me from going right back for more of it!
No more news. Let’s all keep praying for Marysecretary.
Even God has a sense of humor. This Global Warming (or whatever “they” are calling it now) is suppose to continue in Mexico in July. This is more about how to take money away from the good citizens of the USA than it is about the weather! Like you-—I don’t want to see this Health Care plan pass. If it’s not good enough for ALL Americans(meaning those in Congress, Senate, the Pres. and family); then it needs to be voted down!
Yes. Mary is in my prayers.
But I’m a father now and I am doing the same for my children without any expectations of “payback” other than do better in live than I have.
It was a bobsled run when I drove it.
I’m truly sorry... I thought you knew I was kidding...
“Payback guilt” is wrong...what a person gives SHOULD be a gift of love, pure & simple...
My Mom made all of her grandkids a quilt. She gave them with conditions attached...and I don’t think a single one of the kids uses theirs, even though her conditions have been met. Truly sad for all involved...
Again... I’m sorry...
Ping a roo, Bethesda boy!!
Watch yer front and backsides and be safe......
Extended forecast is warm on Christmas Eve here, in the mid 40’s. Maybe snow on Christmas but not cold, in the mid 30’s......

The Sentinel’s Creed
My dedication to this sacred duty
Is total and wholehearted-
In the responsibility bestowed on me
Never will I falter-
And with dignity and perseverance
My standard will remain perfection.
Through the years of diligence and praise
And the discomfort of the elements
I will walk my tour in humble reverence
The best of my ability.
It is he who commands the respect I protect
His bravery that made us so proud.
Surrounded by well meaning crowds by day,
Alone in the thoughtful peace of night,
This soldier in honored Glory rest
Under my eternal vigilance.
God Bless These Men Who Will Walk Their Post In The Cold,,,
Please Keep Them Warm...
It’s not too bad... 75 miles exactly from my home in Rochester, MN to my dad’s place just outside Menomonie.
After I moved to California, I learned that when they expected a big rain storm (”it never rains in southern California. It pours; man, it pours”), they would empty the shelves of dried split peas to make soup. Seemed to make sense.
Amen.
Just curious..... is the Senate in session right now, at 2:45 am ET? Or has the snowstorm effectively shut down any gathering of the Senate. I especially hope that any weenie demoRAT senators are too scared to go out into the cold & snow!!!
