except , of course, the snow was white on a white background.

Can one do that emoticonically?

Announcement:

A prize will be offered to the blogpal who submits the best emoticon. The prize will be quite valuable --- my autograph on one of my books.

Note: When I worked in the Catskills a dish of cream cheese and cottage cheese was called "a dish snow-blindness."

Do Remember This: "Laughter is The Best Medicine." Additional prizes offered for posts that demonstrate this universal truism.

Hmnn: Just as I was writing this --- giggling away --- my tummy-ache disappeared. Poof !
