When we went to bed it was snowing and there was a dusting on the ground. Just enough wet to freeze on the windshield and make everyone at least 10 minutes latesince they had to clear off their windshields with ice scrapers, or my case an old credit card that I didn’t care if it snapped in half – and sure enough, it did. (I think there is a message in there, somewhere.)
So this morning, the ground is covered with a very thin coating of white stuff and it is still snowing. I’m sure schools are closed everywhere and Kroger has had a run on its milk, bread, eggs and toilet paper. Funny how we could have gotten along today without all that milk, bread, eggs and toilet paper, but since it is snowing we MUST have those things.
I was NOT one of those Kroger lemmings, thank you very much. I go shopping once a week and know how to plan my menus ahead and have everything on hand for the week, plus a little extra in case of, hmm, maybe snow? or even better the unexpected drop in of guests who I want to have stay for dinner. I have a great pantry and I keep it well stocked because we love to eat well and I like to prepared for anything.
