8" in the front yard and it's still snowing.






We have more snow. And because we have to suffer through it, so do you.

The Calm Before the Storm

Yup, it's still snowing.


According to various forecasts we're really going to get it tomorrow. They're suggesting anywhere between 4-12" of snow.

We've got food stocked away, I'm baking oatmeal cookies (made with applesauce and whole wheat- they're almost more of a breakfast cookie), and we've got board games, books, candles and flashlights. I think we're ready. As ready as we'll ever be.

Should be an interesting experience.

The First Snow of 2012!

Our first snow at Casa Crustante!

Yup, our attitudes toward soliciting are as cold as our weather.

Our lovely Faverolles ladies have been great troopers, they've spent the majority of the day outside, foraging and discussing important chicken matters. Although they have been wearing an expression of WTH all over their chicken faces.

Something tells me that snow is slightly beyond their comprehension.

Hope you and yours are staying toasty and warm.

Epsom Salts + Jars

Ran across this today at The Inspired Room- Epsom salt snow!

The Inspired Room

I love epsom salt. Whenever I feel glum and/or tired and/or sore, I'll toss half a cup of salt into a hot bath and just soak. It never ceases to make me feel better.

I love the way it looks, too- there's something about the way the light hits it that makes it so lovely. Perhaps it's due to the fact that we did not have much of a winter this year... but I cannot wait to make these.

Snowing!

Snow, snow, everywhere!

So my question of the day is..... If people are going to move to a state where there's a distinct possibility of snow, shouldn't people KNOW how to react? It took me TWO HOURS to get FOUR MILES. Caps lock is completely necessary here, since PEOPLE ARE FREAKING IDIOTS. I love Indians and I love Californians (well, one at least) but SERIOUSLY GET OFF THE ROAD IF IT SCARES YOU.

My beloved didn't even know that you drive in the fresh snow for better traction. Thankfully he parked his car at work and had the sense to walk home.

Ugh.
