Let it Snow. Let it Snow. Let it Snow.

****We interrupt a very important bouillabaisse post to bring you a weather update from central Texas.****

It snowed last night.  Really, it did.  I have pictures to prove it.  See:

Here’s how the events leading up to the snow unfolded:

December 9, Noon: 81 degrees, warm hot and muggy.  Air-conditioning on.  Kindergarten Little is forced to remove stockings at the Nutcracker due to heat.

December 9, Carpool Time: Windy and much cooler.  Strong desire to drink hot tea. Knee acting up, a chill comin’ on. Girl Littles complain their bare legs are cold in gymnastics leotards. 

December 9, 10 pm:  Weather man tells us to expect snow overnight.  Huh? Must be slightly buzzed from red wine. Turn off air-conditioner, put on heater.

December 10, early morning: When, what to our wondering eyes did appear? No, not reindeer yet.  SNOW!  

On the slide:

On the swings:

Two of the Littles were brave enough to see if jumping on a snow covered trampoline is more fun.

It is. Or so they say.

This concludes the important news flash of our winter-wonderland-snow-fall in central Texas.  By the time I hit publish the snow flurries will be a distant memory which is why I felt compelled to document our moment of winter.  

Bouillabaisse tomorrow, unless a blizzard blows through….

    oh yes! I couldn’t believe the flurries! They were so big and beautiful! They were plentiful… and now it’s sunny and yes, a distant memory.

    Jealous.
    Yes, indeed. It’s 65 degrees and raining here. Tomorrow? More of the same.
    This is December, dammit.
    Let.
    It.
    Snow.

    You make me laugh. I am making the White Bean Soup and Cashews for my parentals tomorrow night. What else should I serve?

Meet Kristin

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here.

I'm on a mission to love my neighbors. I put an ordinary picnic table in my front yard, painted it turquoise and invited neighbors, friends, and even strangers to hang out and do life together at the Turquoise Table®.

I hope you'll join us!
