I used to love the snow ice cream. I was disappointed in frozen maple syrup though. I’d read some book where people back in the 1800’s were harvesting maple syrup and the kids got to eat the frozen syrup, and man! did I really want to try that. Oddly, it was still just maple syrup. And stuck to my teeth. How spoiled I was even back then compared to the kids who were so delighted with that frozen treat. But I bet they lost a lot of teeth eating it!

This brings back a lot of fun childhood memories. A smile maker for sure.

Love it Charlie. Our winters up here in Edmonton were more severe when I was younger. We would have a month or two of -30C weather usually dipping into -40C for a week or two. Certainly alot of days around -34 to -36C but I used to absolutely love being outside. Going for long walks, loving the snow sparkling in the sunlight or moonlight. Once I was a teenager I loved skiing. Looking back at pictures I can’t believe how little I wore. For the last 3 years it has only been the odd day that even gets colder than -20C and this year it has been more between +10C and -10C – balmy for here. Your poor penguins would not be happy. We haven’t had much of a snowfall since December. Now though even at -10C I prefer to be inside lol, sipping something hot and enjoying the beauty from inside 😉 . I love your penguins – they are one of my favourite birds.

I love ypur miscellaneous penguin Charlie. A couple of week ago I had a very cold, for these parts, cycle to work. By the time I got there my fingers hurt do much I felt sick. It took me back to being a child, and the pain of my hands warming up after playing in the snow.

So cute.

And I thought they were bowling penguins, cute!

Thanks so much, Fanna! 😃💕 Yeah… it’s soooo cold here, but finally going to be above freezing today. That’s going to feel like a heat wave! hehe

Hola, mi amiga! 😃💕 Aww that sounds like you and Christina had a ton of fun! What an adventure that must have been. That’s the beauty of youth, we never worried about being prepared for something before jumping in and actually trying it. It’s finally getting a touch warmer here, so that’s a plus…. soooo ready for spring! Much love to you! ❤️

Aww yay, Milena! 😃💕 Glad this brought back good memories!

Thanks so much, Mugdha! 😃💕 Seeing snow is a beautiful experience, even if being in it for long periods is just super cold! hehe I have a similar restlessness stirring inside me now as well. Something new, and good is coming for both of us! Hugs to you and much love! ❤️

Thanks so much, Jenanne! 😃💕 That does sound like a place penguins would really enjoy, though. Glad ya liked the scarf!
