    No snow this year, but we did have some fun today. My daughter spent the morning tracking Santa on the computer & checking herself, friends & family out on the Naughty-Or-Nice-O-Meter:

    She made Christmas cookies at her aunt & uncles house in the country.

    I do hope Santa left her lots of nice things. Those cookies look yummy! She's such a pretty girl.

    egg cookie

    The fried egg cookie is a tradition too. She makes one each year. I usually eat that one, but this year, we gave it to my father as he left for Colorado, where he lives.

    cookie

    Nice of you to share with daddy.
    He would need a bite for the cold trip to Colorado.

    PS Does he ski?

    no ski

    No, sewnsew, my dad does ot ski. Neither do I. I tried it twice in my life. I am not good at it. I hate snow and I hate being cold. Skiing is not for me. My wife lacerated her gluteous maximus in college on a clandestine ski trip - her mother told her not to go, then found out due to the ER visit & stitches. My wife said, she was horrified, because here she was with a bleeding butt and her rescuers were "gorgeous" men. So 10 years later, she had to settle for me.

    My dad will be 75 in January, so I better not hear of him taking up skiing.

    I don't dig the ski stuff, but the stories one hears..Like yours.

    Us winter folks in pa will stick to 4 wheeling. Ps my inlaws are up here from Texas.......They want to see Pennsylvania snow........Guess what, no snow at all here ......40º sunny today.......Guess the kids go home without.
    3nd time in 4 years it happened to them.. No snow here....ha
