Cozy Weekend

There's something to be said about a cozy weekend at home.

We are more fortunate than many on the East Coast of the United States.  The nor'easter that hit coastal New York, New Jersey and Massachusetts (and a couple of other states) missed us, although yesterday was miserable, with a stiff wind and a wind chill warning.  We never left the house.

At least it didn't get down to -7F (picture taken when it had risen to -6F (-21.1C)) as it did on January 22.  I hope we can get out of this cold spell soon.

Spouse made some delicious soup and we had a chocolate/cherry dump cake I had baked on Friday.  Today, more soup may be on the menu.

This morning, although we bottomed out at zero F (-17.8 C) the sun was out, and it warmed up fast.  Of course, warm is all relative.  Right now it is 21 F (-6.1 C) but we were able to get in a little walking.

We may have escaped yesterday's storm, but we are going to get one Thursday into Friday.  The prediction right now is 12-18 inches using one model, and almost nothing with another model.  But the more accurate model is the 12-18 (30-45 cm) model.

Later, my spouse will have his football playoffs to amuse him.

How's your weekend going?

  1. Upstate NY. My husband grew up in Buffalo in the 1950s. The stories he can tell are incredible. So many unintelligent kid games, and no one got broken.

  2. ...we don't get snow from the storm, but today we had some blue skies.

  3. Nope, there is not any way that 21 degrees can be considered warm. (Oh, I take that back. If we're talking Celsius.)

  4. Cold, high winds and soup here too this weekend. It was really cold for Florida but of course nothing close to what you have there. Stay warm!

  5. Soup for cold weather is perfect match.
    Coffee is on and stay safe

  7. Looks lovely in the photos! Soup sounds great, cherry dump cake even better. Stay warm and safe.

  8. I don't watch football so I am probably ill-equipped to comment, but I can't figure how it takes two and a half hours to play a one hour game.
