1. Was the milk frozen?
At that temperature, I would expect it to be half slush. Okay, I read the comment again, and get it. Was it slush or was it hard as a rock?

2. Slush. Inside a cooler.
Of course, the bill was tucked into the lid so it didn't close. I can assume it wasn't slush when he put it there at 4 a.m., but by 7, there ya go. :D

4. Don't laugh
...That's my bellwether.

When I take the baby out in the backpack, to do shoveling or get the mail or just go for a walk, I leave the gloves behind. As soon as my hands get cold, I figure the baby's probably cold, too. :)

Hm, I seem to be missing my star. Sorry, Skinner, you'll have to wait until the first of the month (like everyone else). :D
