I did end up making a big pot of soup, I've been dipping into new books, AND I've got a choice of some good single malts for sampling after dinner tonight. Could be worse . . .<BR/>Duchesse: Sounds like fun -- and a good use of snow. I like to take advantage of this kind of weather to make ice molds for candles, then stick the resulting lanterns in snowbanks to welcome guests -- so pretty! <BR/>Metscan: It's true -- our Golden is staying much cleaner with the snow as her only rolling material. -5 is what we're up to now. The -19 I didn't like at all!!materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-63753854779240995462008-12-21T10:06:00.000-08:002008-12-21T10:06:00.000-08:00Lots of snow over there!

Not at all sure,if there will be snow at xmas on the southern parts of the country. I´m not missing it one bit. The only positive thing about it is that the dogs stay clean. The coldest we have had, was about -5C one night( so far).mettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13732534795009852825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-49417346017298693992008-12-21T09:59:00.000-08:002008-12-21T09:59:00.000-08:00We've had blizzard too and it's amusing to hear th...We've had blizzard too and it's amusing to hear the drama some Torontonians exude over a foot of snow. We had a dinner party last night and used the snowbanks in the yard as ice buckets for our pre-mixed cocktails and champagne.Duchessehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09986153653120526776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-66513093451301432342008-12-21T09:35:00.000-08:002008-12-21T09:35:00.000-08:00Those are lovely.

Hooray for the guerilla decorators! <BR/><BR/>All I can suggest for blizzard conditions is a good book, soup and single-malt scotch.Susan Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16005855250089328310noreply@blogger.com
