Or maybe cooking during the storm.
2nd entry today.
There is a foot of snow outside and no sign of it stopping anytime soon. The kids are having a blast, though I do keep making them come inside to get warm.
So far this morning I have turkey noodle soup cooking, finished making the TexMex Turkey and Rice and decided to make some Turkey Cacciatore while I was at it. I will have some nice freezer meals for the chest freezer.
I'm going to have to dread the storm and bring in some firewood, which means I'll have to kick Rose out of my snow boots. She's not going to like that, but I'll do it the next time she comes in to get warm. I have to set up the drying racks, they've managed to soak their scarves and their coats are going to need time in front of the fire as well.
They haven't plowed our road yet, though I'm sure the highway is in good shape. It usually is if you can get to it. I'm glad I have nowhere to go. This will really help with my no eating out for 2 weeks goal. It'll help a lot with no spend days, too!
I do hope the school buses can get through tomorrow. It's going to be a long day otherwise.

We're just now getting a good snow, maybe a couple inches at this point....but I don't expect it to last, just way too wet. But it is soooo beautiful coming down.
Cooking here too.........Roasting pumpkins still, treating the chickens to the insides and rinds, and putting the pumpkin in the freezer for soups.
Stay warm!
