Snoooooooooow
It is *such* a snow day today. Please note that I say this as someone who lives in a climate where actual 'school is cancelled' snow days are about once a decade, not because we don't get snow, but because we get so damn much that it takes a huge blizzard to defeat our army of graders and plows and sanders. (If you don't know what a grader or sander is, you are not a true Canadian. I'm looking at you, West Coast.) Anyway, the snow banks are waist-high and we've gotten about 15 cm (6") with 10 or 15 more to come. The roads are ridiculous. Thank goodness it's a non-working weekend and my only excursion today was getting out of the way of my house cleaner for two hours in the Starbucks down the snowy road. Also, I love my snow tires, they're the best invention ever.
Anyway, I'm snugged in with veggie-bean soup made from scratch with no recipe. It turned out more like stew because I kept finding more vegetables to add and my soup pot got too full. I'll thin it out as the stew/soup gets eaten up over the next four or five days. I don't know why I cook so rarely when I like doing it so much. Actually, I do know, I hate chopping things but I hate frozen things with equal fervour.
Does anyone want a cozy snow day/night ficlet? SGA or maybe even Inception or Glee or something? Prompt me and maybe the muse will strike! That would be fun.
