Bread Making with Gma

The girls helped Grandma Betty make her bread over winter break.  I love all the messy hair and dough eating.  It has been snowing so much this is pretty typical of how we have been spending our days.  My rule is that it has to be 20 degrees to play outside in the snow.  Anne agrees with this rule (she doesn't even barely like it out there) but Elsie would be rolling around in the stuff non stop if I would let her.  What to do?  Seems pretty cold for a Georgia mama but the Pennsylvania daughter doesn't seem to mind freezing temperatures.  I am going to start to hibernate if this keeps up and maybe that wouldn't be so bad?
