FYI: The ideal temperature for ice-making water—at least in the rink—is between 140°F and 160°F. The hotter the water, the less oxygen it contains, thus making it easier for the molecules to bind together and freeze. Several ice-skating ponds sprang up around New York City in the early 19th century, but these catered almost exclusively to the upper class. Central Park changed that when its first skating pond opened in the winter of 1858. Wish your wonderful step daughter and her partner a Merry Christmas with a card featuring adorable penguins, one in pink, ice skating wearing a scarf, bow and earmuffs behind a little one sitting on a bench, while one in blue is standing in the snow just looking cute. Background is decorated with big colorful trees against a blue sky with white text. Design by Laurie Schneider, Elements by Nini Scrap, La Galerie de Jackie.
