A day in my life

My pallet flag is hanging out waiting for summer! I actually love winter, except for the short daylight hours.

One thing I love making in the winter, beside chili and hot chocolate, is roasted pecans. I made this pan full Saturday.

One of the great things about where I live: After a few days of temperatures below freezing, Friday it will be in the 70s! I love North Carolina!

About Once A Year

If we are lucky, about once a year we get some snow. Today we are getting a pretty snow, but since it was in the sixties yesterday the road and ground are very warm.  So, no accumulation on the roads. Just the grass and other things will get a little accumulation.

As I was sorting the children's fabrics in this box in the sewing room...

Outside it looked like this:

I gotta get rid of this pumpkin soon!

The flakes are huge and wet!

I won't be wearing these flip flops today!

No worries.  Around here it can be snowing one day and flip flop weather the next!  I love that we don't get too much cold weather.  There's just enough to be able to experience the seasons.
