That last few days have been raining but normally it's in the low-mid 70's during the day. It's the reason I moved from New York City to Florida. I miss the change of season but not as much as I don't miss shoveling snow and freezing. LOL My kids have never seen snow. I may take them back to NYC next winter for the holidays.

-14 is considered 'balmy' for Minnesota isn't it?

Default Johnson's Baby Cream
Today I remembered that when Son of Isis was a baby (he's 23 now), I discovered that Johnson's Baby Cream was great for healing chapped, cracked lips, as well as any other chapped, cracked skin due to winter weather. It contains dimethicone, which is in a lot of more expensive lip care products. I ordered two tubes off of drugstore.com Online Pharmacy - Prescription Drugs, Health and Beauty, plus more (whom I do not work for), where it is very inexpensive.

I also ordered something quite frivolous and not at all frugal (drugstore.com and beauty.com are actually the same site), but that's not what this post is about!
