Well this one is but maybe I should have used the term, "cute" rather than silly. So since Feb 14 to now without opening, I can still expect them to open? Like your dog. Thanks for input.

Interesting... Is it ok to move them to a cooler room for this? I'll do my best to get 10 down - probably difficult for me to get 15 in my house. Thanks for good info.
