There’s no hurry, Mr. Snowplow Driver. We don’t have to go anywhere until Thursday.

It’s been years since we had an old-fashioned blizzard. Here’s a picture of a storm on this day, 2011:

And another one is coming next weekend.
Yes, it’s winter.
We’ve been watching football and I bet you have, too. Go Pats! Go Seahawks! Let’s plan the Super Bowl food and get ready to snack all day and evening!
I’m going to make Pioneer Woman’s Cream Cheese & Pepper Jelly recipe. Here’s the link:
When I finally stick my nose out the door Thursday I will start my Super Bowl grocery shopping because we just might be in a once-a-week-snowstorm pattern. We’ve had that before and it is absolutely no fun.

And downtown Austin, from the condo:

And from our own town, from daughter Nancy’s window:

There is ice. Lots of ice. School is cancelled today, which is a good thing.
Banjo Man and I are comfy. I am making baked beans. We grilled burgers last night as the sleet pounded down on top of a foot of snow. But our electricity stayed on, so we are happy.
Stay safe, everyone.





Oh my! We are freezing but very little snow. It doesn’t even cover the grass. No ice. my response to the last message did not send. Keep them coming!!

Did my response come through?If not, I will repeat. Cold, just a skiff of snow, no ice.So glad you are prepared. I think Chili is
Your comments came through, Marge. Success! Yes, we have been prepared for the storm. Our Idaho time has taught us well. Stay warm.
We missed the big snow here, but have just enough to cover the ground. And it’s pretty darn cold! We’ve been in the single digits– Below zero this morning!

This kind of cold is a bit shocking. I know we’ll get used to it during the week, but for now I’m hiding in the house and drinking tea. I hope you and Tom are, too!
Spring and Idaho are just around the corner.
