Oh, the weather outside is frightful!!!
We received about 9 inches of snow today - kids got a snow day.
We had a ball making snow men, snow ice cream, snow forts, and snow angels! And we played with the idea of a new dessert using our delicious Strawberry Lemonade! The kids and I are planning on experimenting with a Strawberry Lemonshake recipe. Tune in tomorrow to see the results. If it works, I'll post the recipe and pictures. Boy, when we are homebound, our imaginations go crazy!
I think we'll have a snow day tomorrow, too. I went to Home Depot tonight and the roads were pretty clear. 20 minutes later, I exited into a blinding world of white! At first I thought it was Home Depot's roof just swirling snow off the top, but it quickly became evident that we were in a white-out. 40 mph winds combined with an unexpected hard snowfall. Don't think I'll be canning tomorrow - it's getting harder and harder to push through the snow drifts to the cannery out back!
