Sno Cones

Clara's main purchase with our Toys R Us gift card was a Snoopy Sno Cone Machine. I seemed to recall this same thing existing years and years ago, and, sure enough, I found an old one on ebay that looks IDENTICAL to this one (except for the box). It's not the easiest thing in the world to operate (note the effort on Clara's face), especially since our ice cubes are not cubical, but it does make fluffy, snowy stuff, just as it's supposed to do.
Naturally, both kids wanted to have sno cones for dessert. And, since we had no actual syrup stuff in the house, we substituted orange juice. So, dessert was a couple of ice cubes with a bit of orange juice drizzled on top. Seriously. Our children passed up their usual cookie for ice. Heh heh. Thanks, Snoopy. You're a good guy.
