What We Woke Up To This Morning

It's a beautiful snowy day here. Snowed about 8", hubs went out to shovel at 8 am and at noon we had the sidewalk and driveway packed with another 2". It was grand. Of course, I'm not going out in it. I think I need to buy hubs a snow blower, but not today.

I call this photo "Roses in the Snow." It's just your eye candy for the day. I'll have more soon but I'm so caught up in reading I haven't been doing much crafting lately, which is weird but I'm just being lazy. :-)

This little sachet was a gift several years ago. It kept its rose fragrance for a very, very long time. I've kept it and scented it again with rose fragrance and just can't throw something so gorgeous away.

Cream of Wheat! Tasted scrumptious when lots of sweetener and butter in it.

More snow on this later photo than the earlier one below. Looks like a snow cake.



This shot does NOT show off his bum to full effect. He's got a great bum but those insulated coveralls make him look like an old man.

Do ya see those huge flakes?

  2. Wow what beautiful snow pics. I do wish it would occassionally know here. I love to eat cream of wheat but haven't bought any in ages. My grandmother used to boil can milk with cinnimon sticks and then added cream of wheat, oh it was so rich and good! Hope you are having a great day, T

  7. It was flurrying here all day here! I love snow when it just covers the ground. Not so into more than 1 inch right now. I love when snows in December. We are supposed to get a lot this winter. I can't shovel it myself, so I have to wait for the young man down the street to come and do it. Happy snow day!!!!!
