Time, that is, [to make some snowflakes!](http://www.popularfront.com/snowdays/) I know we’ve done this before, but it’s still fun. ---

Mine is 2797031. This is a way cool site! I can see myself wasting plenty-o-time here. The best part is I can send the link to all the idiots I know who make four-sided snow flakes. ---

Ooooh! Thank you for posting this **Scribble**. I go snowflake crazy every year when someone reminds me 🙂 It’s the simple pleasures… I know it’s ridiculous to have an online snowflake creator preference, but I like this site too: [http://www.addictinggames.com/createasnowflake.html](http://www.addictinggames.com/createasnowflake.html) It has wee scissors and everything. I just find it satisfying! ---

Wait a minute. You have to make your own snowflakes? Here in Canada, we have them made for us, during the winter months, at no cost! (Cute site. Mine is #2,800,222. 🙂 ) ---
