The temperature finally warmed up yesterday—if you call 15° warm. After a few days with sub-zero temperatures, yesterday felt
almost balmy. With the “war
mth” came snow. The snow started in the morning and continued through most of the night. It was a great time to fire up the woodstove and have dinner in front of the fire.
We had a yummy chicken stir-fry with rice on the side for dinner. Thanks, Maria, for teaching your mom-in-law that there are other ways to cook beside the grill and the microwave.
This morning, I woke to more snow falling but within the hour the sun had arrived and as I looked outside, I marveled at the winter wonderland around me. While I drank my first cup of coffee, I just had to take a few photo’s to share.
All good things must come to an end though because right after breakfast, I had to shovel that 14″ of pretty stuff from the decks and stairs.
Spring (and Florida) are getting closer!

Brrrrrr…if 15F feels balmy to you, I guess I should stop complaining about our 20 degree temps here! But you’re right, going through old files and tape collections, and with a delicious stir-fry and mug o’ java to warm you up is a great way to while away the day. (Hope you found the rice cooker!)
Complain about 20 degrees…you are SUCH an island gal!
