Sue, that is Fireplacing COLD.
Really really cold.
Thanks for hosting, QWP!
Have been doing a little of this, little of that prep all day.
My husband thinks that baskets are stupid (and he certainly isn't going to be the first to dig into one), but he is eating all the leftover chocolate that went into the candy jar. "Chocolate sheep! My favorite!"
No, QWP, I will not take your toddler's chocolate. We have WAY TOO MUCH CANDY in this house.
Sue, that is too cold for Easter. I had to wear a sweater here because it was 67F, and I am a wimp.
Even I, a fellow Canadian, think that -21C is way too fireplacing cold for Easter. And an outdoor service!!!
(I just checked, and it's -15 here. Why did I head north? I'm hiding in a pile of blankets and basking in the warm glow of Wifi, avoiding going upstairs to help corral the band of marauding toddlers.)
