House Bound.....

What do you do when the day looks like this???
You enjoy it! You relish the fact that it is 25 degrees, snowing, and Sunday (so they are not canceling school). You can stay home, turn up the heat, and just stay in your pajamas! Snow is a rarity around here. I love it. It is peaceful and clean and makes you stay in and enjoy the fact that there is no where to go!
It is also time to drag out the crock pot and put on a pot of stew. This was Jimmy's day in the kitchen. He cooked while I did nothing at all. What a nice feeling! Well, I cleaned up the mess but I am all for that!
Then he threw on a pan of brownies for good measure. I am sure he burned up enough calories standing in the kitchen to allow for a brownie sundae after dinner...complete with microwaved Blue Bell ice cream. He says that Blue Bell recommends softening it in the microwave on their website...??? That is doubtful but who's to argue!
And last but not least you watch your grandchild catching snowflakes. This is the second snowfall she has witnessed in her short life. She is going to grow up thinking this is normal!!
A little snow on a Sunday afternoon makes for a great day!
