Preparing to be Snowed In

Two days from now we'll get another foot of snow, so even before writing today I was out like everyone else, stocking up on gas, groceries, and grain.  Before I left the house I got a timely call - I won the drawing at my local feed store for a "superbowl basket."  It's a small basket of dips and mixes that are made locally by Country Home Creations in Goodrich.  My basket included chili mix, fiesta nacho cheese dip, chile con queso dip mix, cheeseball mix, and chocolate covered cherry dip mix.  Party in a basket!  I can't argue with fate - I am obviously meant to ride out the storm in the company of tasty snacks.  I immediately added pretzels, sour cream and cream cheese to my grocery list.  Bring on the snow!

  3. I wouldn't mind a good excuse to kick back and read all day, but my office is never closed due to weather!
