I think I vote bread pudding for dessert.
Why is it so cold in here????
Also, I have already cracked the whip this morning, so I think I'm done with working....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
What do we think?
Is this an "all of the above" kind of quiz?

There are only five of us, so I reluctantly have to choose only one.
I suspect Lewis will want the Chocolate Malt cake, which, admittedly, looks very good.
The Ginger Pear and bread pudding both appeal to my sense of home that I associate with the holidays.

I vote ginger/pear upside down.
KR, he has like a bagillion crayons and prefers colored pencils anyway. He has 2 boxes of those. a new pencil sharpener would work though, as well as colored paper for airplanes.
Jesse, I am doing a tangerine in there even though he will NOT get it and proclaim it lame. a toothbrush as well as charcter toothpaste will work though (I have denied him the character toothpaste for months).
Thanks for the ideas!

Balsa wood airplane? They're cheap but they're actually fun and last for a bit. (Emmett and Matilda both got balsa wood planes in their stockings. Emmett's is the fancy kind with a rubber band.)

Not if you wrap it in tin foil, he won't!

might do. we literally have boxes of made paper airplanes - he has 4 books on how to make different ones. The making I think is more than half of it and they mostly get flown indoors, so I'll have to think about whether balsa wood flying about the living room is a great idea.

psst - Jesse is out of touch with what a 7yo will think is lame, pass it on.

Hmph. You just tell him about how on the frontier there were no oranges, and he's sure to come around.

I like snow much better than winter rain despite the extra inconvenience—it's pretty, and clean, and takes me back to my childhood when we had actual snowdrifts in the South. Ice, on the other hand, (particularly highway black ice) has earned my undying hatred.
