Toasting In a Haltertop

The title of my post may have conjured up visions of a wild New Year's Eve party, but no. This picture taken on Monday, illustrates the awkward time of year between summer and waiting for our first snow storm. Here you see Thing Number Two toasting a marshmallow in our wood stove while wearing a complete summer outfit. She had a beast of a tantrum when I tried to put her in sensible clothes. I will admit that I haven't taken out my own winter clothes yet, and here at the station Rob Riccitelli is still rocking shorts. We just don't quite believe it until the snow hits. Until then, we wonder why we all have colds. By the way, in some parts of the world,(South Portland), marshmallows are believed to have medicinal properties.
