Thursday - The 415!!

[Randi]

I want to know how Randi's soup turned out - the one with all the different kinds of beans.

Oh dear! I made the soup, but I should have taken the beans out after half an hour, or simply waited to put them in. They are horrible when cooked for that long. Anyway, I put it through a sieve and kept the soup, then added the rest of it. It actually tastes quite good now. I have frozen 3 containers of it. Gave most of the beans to a french girl I know, and some to the birds and the cats at the cemetary - they liked them.

Thanks - a Cafe au lait would be perfect right now - and I'm thinking of making a Pecan pie, since I brought a huge bag of Pecan nuts back from USA.

Slick, this has got to be the longest Christmas ever!

We actually got into the 60s yesterday! And 50s today.
The bottom will fall out Monday though starting with freezing rain, into snow on Tuesday and Wednesday, following with wind and highs around 16 Thursday. They haven't been brave enough to show us the forecast for Friday yet.

Would like a cherry limeade today and 6 cnts for the mob, please?

Look out everyone, MOFF brought the Kansas Mob with her today.

A catnip tea is all it takes and off they go...............Chip - why are you throwing the cherries at Chuck? Poor Chester I think he is hiding under the sofa.

Come on over here you little Mob and I will tell you a story!

Richard, how about a tall rum and pepsi with lime? Thanks.

You should have seen big brave Chip today. Two cats were fighting outside near my back porch. They were yowling and howling and carrying on something frightful. Scared Chip so bad he ran into his carrier and shut the door behind him. Even though he could get out, he hid in there for an hour. Even after I tossed water outside to break up the fight. My protector!!!

Good Sunday morning everyone. I'm putting on coffee, tea and hot chocolate. Very cold and snowy here today. It's been blowing snow since Friday afternoon. The temp this morning is -20oC but the wind chill is -31oC. I wanted to go for a run this morning but I'm not crazy enough to head out in those temps!! No sure what that equates to in oF but it's darn cold!

-20 = -4

-31 = - 23.8

Yup - you're right, Gayle - darn cold!

Batten down the hatches!!! We are in for a major winter storm. We can get up to a foot of snow plus freezing rain and drizzle between now and Wednesday morning. Then on Wednesday it will be windy with a high of 6 and low of -9 with wind chill of -20.

I feel the need for lots of veggie soup and hot tea just thinking of it. Fingers crossed the power stays on. I will have no heat if it doesn't.
