Just chatted with my mom in Montreal. They're getting the snow too. The biggest storm since 1971! That's BIG. Here in Boston—just rain. A little gloomy so we're taking ourselves out to eat. Yay! Happy snow days out there in Ohio!!! Hi! Just chatted with my mom in Montreal. They’re getting the snow too. The biggest storm since 1971! That’s BIG. Here in Boston—just rain.

It just keeps coming, band after band after band. Really heavy and blowing right now. Butternut squash soup is simmering, rolls are having first rise, pizza dough for the kids also rising. Chris and Lila are down at the other house showing it (I'm taking it as a very good sign that the people wanted to drive out in the blizzard to see it, that they said "We've eager to get this going." Wheee! But I want my family home and safe soon. It's too noisy to do any real writing (D & D game going on in the dining room...with very funny conversations. You remember Tracey & Reid? Yeah. Funny as hell.) enjoy, stay warm and yum! lasagna! xoxo Debra, the snow is so incredible. It just keeps coming, band after band after band. Really heavy and blowing right now.

Going to the barn through heavy snow up to my knees was interesting. Lily tagged along so covered with snow that all we could see was the 2 black dots and a black muzzle! when she came inside, she rotated in front of the heating duct (kind of like a rotisserie) to dry off. Good to be inside! I am making lasagna to take to the in-laws and bread is rising. I feel like a domestic goddess. xoxo Isn’t the snow amazing!!

Yummy. I'm playing around with the idea of making Nana's swiss squares, but I don't have unsweetened chocolate. Guess I could sacrifice some of my good bittersweet. 15" so far!!! mmmm, Snickerdoodles. Yummy.

I have plenty of flour, so I'll make bread tomorrow. Snickerdoodles now. mmmmmph. And if I can scare up a porkchop, I'm making that pork & beans recipe I saw on GFG. I'm a little doubtful about all that olive oil, though... ... I don't have leek seeds, or I'd start some. According to last year's blog, I started my seeds on 3/17 and had plenty of time. I'm doing it next weekend. xx Enjoy the snow! Hmmm. I have plenty of flour, so I’ll make bread tomorrow.
