not miss that part of Christmas in New York, adirondacker!
I was talking to some people waiting in line to pay for gifts in a Bamboo store today and I asked where they were from.. "Canada".. "which part?" says I.. "Saskatchewan"! They said it was -40 degrees Celsius today.. which we decided was 10 below. That could be wrong.. but we do know it's COLD! 
yeah, that scared icon works for Brrr!)
Mele Kalikimaka, adirondacker.. how's the weather where you are now?
Canada Lake about the snow disappearing from last week. 
Here's to you all having a very snowy winter that's safe for travel yet good for cross-country! And, lots of Firewood! 
Your Mom will be so happy tomorrow.. how sweet, adirondacker.
Your winter break sounds good.. I actually like Florida.. just not the people who run it.

"Crosby was born in Tacoma, Washington, on May 3, 1903,[10] in a house his father built at 1112 North J Street.[11] In 1906, Crosby's family moved to Spokane, Washington.[12] In 1913, Crosby's father built a house at 508 E. Sharp Ave.[13] The house now sits on the campus of Crosby's alma mater Gonzaga University[14] and formerly housed the Alumni Association."

"What does Alice B. Toklas have to do with Alice B. Toklas brownies, anyway?
— Judy Prisoc, Chicago
Dear Judy:
About as much as she had to do with The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas--which is to say, not much. The 1933 "autobiography" was actually written by Gertrude Stein, Toklas's lifelong companion and one of the legendary figures of the Parisian literary scene in the first half of the twentieth century. Similarly, the recipe for marijuana-laced brownies (actually it was a brownielike hashish fudge) that appeared in the 1954 Alice B. Toklas Cook Book wasn't Toklas's own but rather that of a wiseacre painter friend named Brion Gysin.
It all started when Alice signed a contract with Harper's to write a cookbook in 1952. She was a pretty fair cook, but what Harper really hoped to get (and what by and large it got) was not so much recipes but tales of her life with Gertrude Stein, who had died in 1946."
The rest of the story..

Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas, longship~
