Even if you don't build a snowman, the carrots in your pocket will make for a nice snack.

One thing I learned this winter: when there is snow on the ground, always carry a bag of carrots in your pocket.

If I had the yellow paint used on pencils I would: .• Paint a canvas all yellow, then draw on it with a pencil.• Paint a box all yellow, and store your pencils in it. • Paint a pen to look like a pencil. • Paint an Optimus Prime toy to look like Bumblebee.

If you had access to the same yellow paint to coat pencils, what would you do with the paint?

I have magical pockets. Crumbled paper sometimes comes from my pockets; .other times my pockets yield origami butterflies

After sticking the arms pointing down, I realize why people put the arms pointing up. When the arms are pointing down, it's much easier for the arms to fall out.

Why are snowmen always built with their arms in the air? People don't stand around with their arms raised up. Some of my next snowmen will have their arms lowered down like normal people.
