    I do like how you specified "Friendly children"... none of your devil spawn, just the good ones! heh heh...that is my wife's due date, so I'm hoping to be in the hospital, or maybe home already if we get lucky and the kid gets tired of being in there! lol

    Awwww. You're so nicely inclusive. If we don't wear ourselves out traipsing around this afternoon, we'll show up with a plate of springerle and other delights.

    Caroling was AWESOME! What great neighbors!!! So many happily surprised people of all different ages! Looking forward to doing it again next year so mark it on the calendar. If I know a lot of adults are coming next year some old grandad bonded will make it into the cider.

    MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!

    Caroling was great. Here's to a larger band of singers next year. Glad the Springerle was tasty. (Although you didn't say it was tasty, just awesome, which I suppose could mean "terrifyingly bad.")

    Awe inspiring in a truly positive sense i assure you. I did indeed laugh out loud but am writing it out in respect to your sensibilities.

    Awsome, as in terrific, delicately delicious, wondrous, something you want to "nosh" all the time - open up a bakery already, LB, and make us all happy! Looking for a storefront? Ask Lolly - she'll help!
