I haven't posted about the snowpocalypse yet because I didn't want to pick which pictures to post, we took so many! Here is the snow just as it got started on Friday morning.And here is the same view Saturday afternoon. It snowed hours more after this pic was taken.
I stayed home Wednesday with Gabriela because overnight we had received like 5 inches of snow and daycare was closed the next day. I've hardly been to work since. A huge snow storm arrived on Friday, and we had an early release scheduled so we could all get home in time. I decided to do some work home instead of having to rush home in the snow to get to Gabriela if daycare closed early. It snowed from 10 am Friday until 6 pm Saturday, and we got nearly 2 feet of snow! We had a snow day on Monday, work and daycare are closed again today AND another 10 to 20 inches is supposed to make its way to us starting this afternoon. Surely, tomorrow will be another snow day!!!
My goal over the weekend was to make as many Cooks Illustrated recipes as I could. As a result, we've been eating like kings. So far we have made the Pizza Margherita, Chewy Chocolate Brownies, the Best Buttermilk Pancakes, Indoor Pulled Pork (and South Carolina Mustard BBQ Sauce), Minestrone Soup, Cranberry Pecan Bread, and Braised Butternut Squash with Dried Apricots and Madras spices. These were just the Cooks Illustrated recipes. We ate more, believe it or not. I think it's wrong when you wake up after sleeping all night and you are STILL full. whoops. We are enjoying being snowed in.
I need to pick up a few groceries before the snow starts up again, since we'll probably be confined to the house for another few days.

Remember a few weeks ago when you were so excited to finally get a snow day?
