IC - 18 inches here is nothing to us - but when it starts blowing and drifting - then the closings start - I just wish all this snow would just keep falling on the White House - not my white house - the one in Washington DC -

a lot of our snow is going away - and we just don't want any more - when I say it is goin away - we can now see around corners, snow banks are smaller - but it's so cold that we have a lot of ice - if it stays supercold - it will be too cold to snow - I hope

at least with all this cold we won't see a lot of spiders this summer!

With the recent snowfalls darned near everywhere I wanted to remind folks of a traditional winter treat... Pour maple syrup or canned sweetened condensed milk over bowls of snow and eat like ice-cream. L'il ones LOVE this! (Big ones, too!) :)

So much crud gets pumped into the air I think Ill pass on snow cream these days lol. We used to eat it when I was a kid.

We got about 6 inches or so total with about an inch of so of ice. The main roads are clear but secondary roads are horrible. We went to Walmart Monday and I found a bunch of herb seeds for the garden this year at .20 a pack.

Today neighbors and I banded together and each made a soup/stew/chili to hold in crock-pots to share and show our appreciation to the many shovelers/plowwers in our condo village. I made Broccoli-Cheddar and Mexican Meatball, Vivian made Chicken/Bow-Tie Pasta and Tomato Rice, Milfred made Ham & Navy Bean and cornbread, and Florence made Cream of Mushroom and sourdough breadstix. The hot soup was really appreciated by the crew of 14 or so college guys... and there were plenty of leftovers for us to enjoy afterwards too!
