This mornings greeting comes from VERY cold Iowa! We had a big winter storm and I even think Iowa made the National news for this storm!I am thinking we were in the range of 10 16 inches here.YEP we have snow mountains! Lets not tell Karen but I have some sweet little helpers that are going to load up all of it out of my yard and truck it to her yard she will be so surprised and HAPPY!!


Hope all have a great Thursday!

Yes, I did see Johnson, Iowa on the news and wondered if it was near you!
Cars were burried in snow and Wisconsin was just as deep in the white stuff. The wind made it much worse, with snow drifts to boot. We had a little bit of snow here on Tuesday evening - it presented itself from midnight to 6 a.m. We woke up to it yesterday.

Did schools and workplaces get closed down yesterday? Or is Iowa kind of like Maine that way, its a way of life in the winter. Don't expect anything less. LOL

Went to a cookie swap last night. I baked yesterday afternoon. I made peanut butter cookies and put 1/2 mini peanut butter cups and Hershey kisses on top of them and also decorated sugar cookies to take. The extras I left out for the kids for when they came home from school disappeared within a short period of time; I'm glad that way I'm not tempted. I plan to bake some more to send to my Dad.

Ya know years ago Iowa dealt with this kind of snow.I remember the bus ride to school with drifts in the ditch higher than the bus.But for some reason**global warming?** we have not had much snow so yes the whole state petty much shut down yesterday and no school again today.


YUMMMM on the cookies I would have to give them away fast or I would have ate my fill!

Ruth,
Hope you can stay inside today - that's what I'm doing. Temp here was a warm 6 degrees when I got out of bed. Took the furnace forever to warm up the house. Working on some craft projects, plan on a pot of chili for supper. DH loved the potato/ham soup we had last night and the crockpot did all the work! I will make the chili in the Dutch oven because I can brown & cook in 1 pot. I should do some holiday baking, but need to wait until I stop coughing.
No Curves visit so far this week, but I plan on doing a walking DVD later.
