This months blog hop can be found here



and my message for the month;-

Make the most of what you have.

if it snows when you are having a party (my Dad's 80th) then why take up room in the fridge chilly the bubbly!

    Brilliant! My mum relies on it being cold over Christmas so she can store extra food outside....one day she may have problems but it has always worked so far. We haven't had any snow at all so far this year which doesn't seem right since we are in Scotland, oh well! Juliex

    I love your message - and you certainly looked like you made the most of what you had!! I put my cooler outside the back door at Christmas when I can't squeeze any more in the fridge, but using the snow is inspired!!! XX

    Natures own chiller - green & free!

    I saw your comment over on Philosophy of lists - Try Cosmic Boy by Frank Cotterill & the Eragon series by Christopher Paolini - Cosmic boy really got my then 10 year old into reading & he couldnt put the Eragon books down. It was a joy to see.....

    What a fabulous natural cooler. You know how snowmen always melt slower? Get the kids to build a mini igloo for a chiller that lasts longer! :0)

    haha... very fun, and yet practical way to keep the bubbly chilled--love this Tess! Actually, I could do with a glass of bubbly... that would chase those winter blues away. ;o) Happy Days ((HUGS))
