I knew you were from Jersey - I thought about you when I was writing this!

I so share your love of the big colored blinkers. And MY British DH is also really really enamored of tasteful tiny whites. Sigh. We went LED this year too (Home Despot, they are almost out too) and had to get medium whites (all they had, he was spared). I too am very desiring of bigger, colorful, BLINKERS! Love this post. Thanks for the online links too. You read my mind! Thanks, MamaBird. I was a bit worried about going public as a tacky NJ Christmas person, but I guess the ultimate compliment is my Jewish girlfriends still love me and just shake their heads! -- Lynn SNOMG!
