So we had a pretty big dump, about a foot all told. The storm started about two hours before our big holiday concert, and so we figured a bunch of people wouldn’t show. By the time the show began, we had about 700 people out of the 900 who’d bought tickets, so that’s pretty respectable. Everything went very well, too, and as soon as I get my CD of the concert, I’ll post a track or two.
In the meantime, here’s a piece we did a few years back.
A busy day: shoveling out with the hubby;
plowing the North Forty;
taking a few minutes to enjoy the scenery;
and, of course, feed the turkeys who come through (although only a lone lady did, today);
A day like this, a girl really needs her snowshoes.
All in all, it was a day for soup and fresh baked oatmeal bread; for making a crockpot of my own special bison/lamb chili (go ahead and laugh; more for me) and trying that cranberry cake recipe.
The little guy was thrilled with the snow–only in theory, of course–and spent most of the day playing either with his toys or his new favorite: a wadded up piece of paper.
For the most part, it was a day when all was right with my little world, although the Packers lost 🙁 . Time to kick back, pop the top of a new Belgian ale,
and eat cake 🙂
