In reply to: Carla 's message, "Chapter 30 Unfortunately, we have no rituals as lovely as this one. We have certain things without which various celebrations would not be complete -- like crackers at Christmas dinner, scalloped potatoes and ham for Easter dinner and the setting out of carrots, cookies and milk for Santa and the reindeer on Christmas Eve." on 06:27:11 09/19/07 Wed

Here's a good explanation of the Christmas crackers (which are not crackers as in Premium Plus or Ritz) Click Here Oh, and the betacarotene is for the reindeers, Santa gets the cookies and milk :) (NT) -- Carla, 14:39:12 09/19/07 Wed
- Doh! Of course, I've only seen them in catalogs, but now I get it. Jeeze, do I take long enough or what?? The only ritual we have here is me replacing the empty toilet paper roll. (NT) -- Elaine, 14:51:35 09/19/07 Wed
  - Gee, Elaine, we have that in common as well! (not as exciting as the last similarity) How can three grown men not be able to figure out this simple task?? (NT) -- Denise, 15:24:09 09/19/07 Wed
