1- Best part is the crisp, clean feeling to the air. I love having no humidity
3- Hot chocolate, lately made with Almond Breeze instead of regular milk
7- Favorite treat is a cookie my mom makes called Melting Moments. They are made with crushed almonds and literally melt in your mouth when you eat them. So good!
2- Grandma's green jello with pineapple and shredded carrots. It isnt all that great tastewise, but it's not winter without it at Thanksgiving
4) Realistically snow angel, but just because we rarely have enough of the right type of snow for a snow man.

Oh, I forgot all about cherry cordials, Jill! I love those things. But I only allow myself one box and that usually takes all winter to eat.

<div>He LOVES to snuggle. Since it was just him and me for a couple years, he follows me around wherever I go. And when it's time for bed he gets in the bed with me and won't get up in the morning until I do. He doesn't particularly like to be picked up, but he will sit with you for hours and he LOVES to meet new people.</div>

FutureMrsFezz

Hmm.. I've always wanted to go to Charm City. 

salt78

Let me know if you ever visit!! Oskie would love to have a new friend. 

Snippylynn

Salt, Oskie looks so much like the kitty I had.  Mine was the devil though.  He would only let me pet him, and he didn't like to be picked up either, unless I cradled him like a baby.  He was a weirdo.

salt78

Oskie thinks you should come for a visit as well!

Snippylynn

The Chef says that would be borkariffic.

salt78

Okay "borkariffic" is my new favorite word.
