Did you get that? It is a snow day here. We don't have many of those in NC and althought it is barely covering the grass we are taking a day off for snow. Atleast mostly taking off anyway. We may do some when the novelty wears off. This is Monkey Toes(dad's nickname for her because when she was born she would stretch her toes out almost like fingers...she also had a pointy butt from being breech lol)first snow. We did not get any last year and even if we had she would not remember it. She has just been fascinated by it all. Right now she has a snowboot and sock in hand trying to find someone to put them back on so she can go outside. Never mind that the socks are wet because she took her boots off outside Mama does not go out in it because last time she went out to get snow to make snow cream and fell and broke her tailbone....not fun! I must admit that it was mostly my fault...you see I went out in my birkenstock clogs, after all it was only about 15 feet away from the house, but it was enough to fall and leave a huge hiney print to which my son and daughter laughed hysterically. My feet flew straight out from under me and my tailbone got all the weight....most painful I must tell you. Since I am pregnant I will enjoy it from the windows and the porch where it should be safe lol.
Snow also puts me in the mood for baking. I have my new Momys cookbook and so have alot of new recipes I want to try. This book is wonderful. There are so many recipes. It is a very thick book and to top it off I have several recipes in there too. The ladies who put it together and edited those recipes did an awesome job and Marmee did the mailing out to us....she mailed out I believe around 1300 cookbooks.
I am still decluttering. I have made it through alot of the house organizing, but I need to get rid of so much stuff. You cannot organize clutter and that my friend is a fact. I am doing the Colossal Clutter Cleanup over at Amy's blog. Check it out and join in...you are never behind.
Well I am off. Dd is still trying to find someone to put her shoes on her and has now proceeded to visit her big brothers room and get his wallet....I guess she is gonna bribe someone with his money lol.
Blessings,
Holly
