The snow has come and gone! My house has about a foot of snow. The most that’s falling in one storm in quite some time. Working a full, regular day today. But I’m exhausted from all the clean-up and snow removal, both yesterday and this morning. At least I can take it easy at work and think about what I’ll be making this week.

What I Do on Snow Days
I bake bread!
Welcome February!
This is how February is greeting Connecticut.
I’ll be honest, I’m not a fan of snow and the anticipation of over a foot of the white stuff isn’t making me happy.
But! It is pretty!
Not looking forward to shoveling later, though. How many days till spring?
The Calm Before the Storm
Winter Views I
Yesterday was bitterly cold here in Connecticut! In fact, it was the first time since 2019 that we had a wind chill advisory!
Despite the chilly temperatures, my yard looked pretty thanks to the dusting of snow Thursday morning. More snow is possibly on the way! I have a love/hate relationship with winter and winter weather. One day, I’ll explain more about it. But for now, here’s a picture of my snow-dusted back yard.
Preparing for Snow
Tomorrow, my state is expected to have the largest single snow storm in about 5 years! For my area, meteorologists are predicting around 15 inches of snow! It’s been quite some time since we’ve been forced to deal with that much snow in one go.
I am not a big fan of snow, so I’m not really happy about it, but I am looking forward to the possibility of not having work Thursday. Though, I’d rather be at work than having to shovel.
The time spent inside means I can have some time for myself and possibly make something. I purchased a new cookbook over the weekend, not an Ina one obviously. But I’m still excited nonetheless.
And if you’re wondering, yes. I did make something over the weekend. I made a breakfast item! It will post tomorrow.
Until next time….
Chilly Day!
We are in the midst of our first truly “cold day” of the season. Usually, at this point in November, we are seeing temperatures in the high 40s and up to the low 60s. However, today the high is supposed to reach only 36! Much too cold for this time of year here in CT.
While I was glad to finally be able to acceptably wear a sweater to work today, all I can think about is wanting to stay home, under blankets and sip warm tea.
I think this week, I’m going to make a soup recipe. Even though by Friday, the weather should return to more seasonable temperatures.
