Today's News and Weather Report

[la_samtyr]

It is still bitterly cold. Supposedly it will begin to warm up tomorrow and more by next week. We'll see. Right now I am busy watching the Eastern Seaboard get clobbered by snow. I am also teasing my Chicago cousins about the earthquake they had earlier (no, New Madrid did not 'pop'); I think anyone not living in CA (or some other earthquake zone) should get bonus points if they feel an earthquake. XD

I am trying to decide what sort of food to fix right now. I am not overly motivated by any recipes but I imagine I will end up making potato soup and adding a few mushrooms since I need to use up the potatoes on hand and then buy some fresh. There is a good sale on for 5 lbs. for $1, which is as low as I have seen them in some time.

Writing continues. Back later on.

Chicago had an Earthquake???

Outside of Chicago, and in the 3-4 range, just enough to rattle things around.

We may be getting some snow here in southeast Alabama by tomorrow or the next day or so. It's been very cold for us (the lowest 26 degrees). I made a big pot of vegetable beef soup yesterday (actually Tues evening) and I had some today. I'd love some of your potato soup, too. Num!

Sorry I'm so slow replying; I hope you are staying warm. *hugs*

That's okay. :) I am staying warm. It started snowing earlier this morning around 11 am and we have about an inch to inch 1/2 now. I'm excited to see it.
