Snow is a rare thing in Ms...But yesterday parts of the state got several inches...we only got rain and more rain where I live. Hubby works 75 miles south of us in the State Capital and he called me early and said it was really coming down.
People don't know how to drive in snow in Ms...Hubby was coming home yesterday afternoon and said cars were in the ditch everywhere.All the kids here were dissapointed....my daughter who is 17 has seen snow only one time....lol...
A question.......has anyone ever made snow ice cream ?

yes in Columbus Ohio we have had snow all month. It's not such a rare thing here. At least there hasn't been any major snow yet. maybe half an inch on the ground right now. I have made snow ice cream. We made it as kids but I haven't made it in years. No one seems to make it anymore. They are worried about pollution in the snow.

Francie- haven't made snow icecream ever- but it seems I recall a story and recipe of sorts for it given in the classic Laura Ingalls Wilder book "Little House in the Big Woods".
Speaking of snow in the deep south- we got many environmental/mechanical and power failure alarms for State Farm offices in your neck of the woods during the night- also in Louisiana. You poor folks- watch out! Up here in IL. we're used to the stuff of course, and equipped for it with plows, shovels, ice-scrapers for car/truck windows, not to mention heavy clothes and coats/gloves/hats/scarves/long-underwear and such! But ya'll I imagine don't have ANY of that sort of gear! Be careful and STAY WARM!
