Update from the snow zone

Well here we are in (what?) day five of the blizzard hostage crisis. Of course part of the fun of being snowed in includes making cookies right? I think Danny has been paying a bit too much attention to those cooking shows Su likes to watch. As you can see, he is a bit "know it ally" in the kitchen like those TV hosts ;-)  On the bright side, the oatmeal cookies did turn out splendidly so we've got lots of sugar to sustain us as we continue to watch the snow fall and blow.

As you may recall, I posted a pic taken Sunday that showed about 2 feet of snow on our back deck. I then totally shoveled the deck and table CLEAR yesterday before today's snowfall, and here is what it looks like now at about 6 pm on Wednesday night . I kid you not.  Another 18" or so we think.

We are doing fine otherwise. Our cable started going out about a half hour ago but now seems fine. We are really hoping our electricity, phones, cable and internet keep working. But wouldn't be surprised if something breaks. It's supposed to snow til later tonight. Onward and upward! -M

P.S. Danny's new favorite game? To announce "I am Monster Truck, Baby is Car!" This right before he tries to crawl over the little guy. Fortunately we are very good at intercepting him!
