Welcome to the 5th edition of the Carnival of Snowflaking! I’m Kelly, and I’m very excited to be hosting. We have a good roundup of articles on snowflaking and some great editor’s picks. As an American living in France, I thought you might be interested in some other ways of saying snowflake… so here they are- in six major European languages.
Editor’s Picks: flocon de neige (French)
Paid Twice discusses one of the origins behind the Paid Twice concept and a great way to build snowflakes into financial flurries. I miss Target too, but for different reasons!
Save Money from How I Save Money talks about saving money in an emergency fund. This a great basic primer on how to successfully set up your emergency fund.

Thank you for posting my article. I am totally impressed with the European’s mastery of so many languages. The company I’m employed with has offices worldwide, and I regularly work with my European counterparts. We have a lot of fun with language, though I am embarrassed to say I myself can only speak English.

Thanks for including my article. I love the way you set this up.
