Snowy Saturday

Yet another snowstorm. A nice one, with pretty fine snow, but snow has been falling constantly since last night. So, my husband and I went out for breakfast to the Pancake House, which usually has a long line on Saturday morning. Today, no wait at all. Then we did several errands, where every place was uncrowded except for the grocery store. It seems that every time it snows, people rush out to the grocery store to stock up, just in case the snow turns into a blizzard, and they won't be able to get any food for several weeks.
Then back at home, we organized the holiday letters which just may go out on Monday. We are usually so last minute on these letters, often they don't get sent until the 23rd or so. This year, my husband helped Alma write the letter, as I just didn't have any enthusiasm for it. I did print the labels and put the envelopes together.
Alma is going through a food rebellion period. She hasn't been eating much, and when she does, shows little enthusiasm for her meal. So, after adding cheese, croutons, raw egg and other delicious and varied flavors to her food with no results, today we tried canned dog food. Well, she was in the kitchen in a flash, and consumed most of the bowl in about a minute. So, was she tired of the same old dog food mix? We'll see. We purchased some new dry food and several cans of wet food.
School is over now. We had a lovely holiday party. Now its time to get my syllabi together. When we get back from Mexico, it will almost be time to start up again.
