and may all your Boxing Days be whiiiiiite… So we have snow on the ground here in Cheesecake City. (Supposedly we had a white Christmas too, but it started after the sun went down so I couldn’t tell, as I did not leave the house all day). I remember the days when snow = two…

95
So, when I was a little girl (I would refer to myself as Lil Elaine, but the word “Lil” makes me want to puke), I had a Grandma. Well, of course I had two Grandmas, both of whom were splendid in their own (and very, very, verrrrry different) ways. I have only the best memories…
