I would like to add:

When were toddlers we were told when it was snowing that it was
"Mother Goose shaking her feather-beds".

Featherbeds belong to the days when one had to breath on the windows on
a frosty morning, then scrape the "ice ferns" off.


Ah yes ... those were very comfortable ... if only they still existed.
