You were fantastic to manage without water, I think I'd cancel visitors if that happened to me, but it's nice when everyone helps out.Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08100985140335023467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72554791720527032.post-4117701591611049132010-12-26T21:21:51.433+00:002010-12-26T21:21:51.433+00:00What a lovely Christmas!

It was nearly 60 degrees (fahrenheit!) in Seattle yesterday.

We have water but the houses on the opposite side of the road don't so its a case of each house adopting a house, which is working well.Lilyhttp://www.lilycollison.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72554791720527032.post-8788536356664810922010-12-26T15:55:06.083+00:002010-12-26T15:55:06.083+00:00Oh, well done you!

We do become so dependent on our easy life, don't we? Glad to know Santa never loses his way - Christmas is so much more fun with a little one. Your cake looks - and sounds - delicious!Stephanie Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03206167025245206754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72554791720527032.post-62011587241619001602010-12-26T13:34:44.151+00:002010-12-26T13:34:44.151+00:00And all that managed without water ....
