If life imitated art, the amount of snow we would have received today would have been three snowflakes instead of three feet.
OK, we didn't really get three feet. It just felt like three feet as I tried to shovel a path for the boys to do their thing this morning. I finally gave up and figured I'd deal with their thing in May.
I ventured out into the tundra last night for EGA and am glad I did. Not only did I get to spend a few hours stitching three snowflakes, I also learned that I'm braver than I think (for leaving the house after dark and in bad weather), and I was treated to a hot chocolate by Miss Charlene.
It's a new thing...hot chocolate. I hadn't really had it since I was a kid and Miss Charlene has introduced me to the joys of a steamy cup of it to set the world right. After the gallons and gallons of tea that passed my lips during the Downton Abbey bingeing, this is a lovely change of pace.
I hope you are warm and safe and dry today, kids. Here in Hoosierville we're hunkered down with blankets, some stitching, a few good movies....and hot chocolate!
We have fled to Florida for "the season" but I've been watching the snow via our security cameras up north. Wish I could join you for that hot chocolate. Nothing beats a good winter storm for breaking out the cozy.
ReplyDeleteHot chocolate on a snowy day is the best.
ReplyDeleteWaiting for the snow to arrive here in NY, at which time the hot chocolate will also arrive in my snowman mug!
ReplyDeleteYay Coni! Good for you on venturing out to EGA. Enjoy your snowy day and please send it my way when you are finished with it.
ReplyDeleteSounds delightful!

ReplyDeleteThere is nothing better than an EGA meeting to catch up with friends and be inspired with new ideas.
Glad you could spend the evening with stitching friends!
ReplyDeleteThe only thing better that spending an evening with stitching friends is drinking hot chocolate at the get-together. :)

ReplyDeleteThere is nothing like a mug of hot chocolate. :)
ReplyDeleteMmmmm, hot chocolate on a snowy day. No snow here, but I have been enjoying some hot chocolate.
ReplyDeleteThe Kroger brand Private Selection has a caramel sea salt cocoa that is divine - and no partially hydrogenated oil. I try not to get anything with that gunk in it and a lot of cocoa mixes have it!!
ReplyDeleteStitchy friends are the best!!
