Winter

November 10th, 2006 at 08:42 pm

It is breathtaking outside. We are having our first real snowfall of the season and it looks like a Christmas card. The snow has been falling steadily for about 3 hours and the branches are quite heavily laden. Tiny tracks cross the yard where our intrepid squirrels have been out playing. My world is white and glistening. inside I have a roaring fire to cut my heat bill and lend itself to the ambiance of the day. Hot soup simmers on the stove which twill soon have cocoa as well waiting for my DH to burst in the door covered in white. Both my DS2 and our resident canine are yearning to get out to romp around in the frosty expanse. When he gets up from nap we are going to take glue and scraps of stuff and spend the afternoon creating presents for those we love to bring special smiles to their faces next month.

    We used to christen the first snowfall with "snow cream." Of course, we don't get snow here, but the memories are still there.....
