Making snowflakes

I found a site on the Internet where there are instructions on how to make a 3-D paper snowflake. It is incredibly easy and looks like this when done the first time by a rank amateur (AJ).

I’ve made a bunch of them and some smaller ones, as well as the old standby – the construction paper chain. Actually, this is the most fun I’ve had in a long time . . . and I listened to Christmas songs too.

Now I need some cocktail shrimpies and whiffs of evergreen and the crackle of a fire and sparkling grape juice.
