Valentine's Day, Some Randoms and Snowy Skies!

(click on photo to enlarge)

Wednesday about noon. I'm heading to Kroger to pick up some fun snow foods. The sign on the road says "winter storm warning"....it started snowing at about 2 or so and never stopped till Thursday morning and we thought it was done...

Went out to shovel the steps and the snow started back up:

And snowed and snowed another 6 inches!

And then the snow stopped and the sky turned pretty in pink!

Check out more skies from all over the world by visiting Skyley!

Now some randoms:

1) Wow, that was some snow event! It was the 3rd highest on record! You can read about that HERE

2) Ozzy absolutely LOVES the snow:



3) For breakfast I scrambled 2 eggs with some diced tomatoes, onions and fresh spinach...then topped with Feta! I love, love, love feta and this is so incredibly yummy!

4) I think I have taken over 300 pics/videos of the snow...so fasten your seatbelts, I've got lots to show you ;)

5) Happy Valentine's Day. I confess to being the worst mom on the planet. I forgot to pick up Valentine's for the kiddos and we're snowed in! I did make special pancakes this morning with sprinkles for them and will make a chocolate cake a little later...hopefully that will make up for it...then I can go to Kroger tomorrow and score on VDay candy at a discount haha ;)

Happy Valentine's Day and have a great weekend!!

  7. I got the path to the firewood cleared off so I can get some more wheelbarrows loaded and in the cellar. Haven't approached clearing the road up the hill, I am hoping the sun will help me out. Might be a big crowd at Krogers better wear your elbow pads to get at that candy.

  15. The day after is always the best time for heavy discounts on chocolate. But I think the chocolate cake will make up for the lack of it today. Unbelievably beautiful photo of the sunset.
