WINTER’S FURY!!

WINDY…and with it came the rain and the sleet and the

snow.Trash everywhere. cans rolling down the street.

It was so noisy I had trouble sleeping through

it all. Freezing rain closed most all the schools and

colleges for the day. One good thing ..the wind

blew the snow away and so we got very little

in our area. NO SHOVELING

We will not be skipped though,

they already have us preparing for 4-8 inches

by Friday night. We will see..

Mom was saddened to hear that Edwards (herfavorite)

pulled out of the presidential race. She looked at

me and said "NOW WHAT?" I answered….

"I have no idea." She said she liked his

style and his voice.

Made me think about who will

be the running mates for the candidates.

 It is important who
we elect, but also who the person they pick

to run with them as the vice president.

Would that person
make me want to vote for them or against them?
SO many decisions left to be made yet. I am
sure it will be pretty interesting as time goes on.

I think now the commentators on tv may be right

there are only four left that are really running.

Good thing we still have months ahead to decide.

RED WHITE AND BLUE SUPERBOWL

SUNDAY is the night!!

This year it will be a red,white and blue bowl.

Both teams will be wearing the same type colors.

I find this confusing somewhat. I mean I watch

games but with both wearing similar colors it

will be even harder for us amateurs to keep

track. Odds are on the Patriots because they

have not lost one game this year. I watched

the last game they had. It went back and forth and

they could have just as well lost it. The

Giants are doing well too.. their quarterback was

really pretty good. SO.. who do you pick..

I think I have to go with the odds on this one.

I will go with Tom Brady and the Patriots and

if he gets injured.. well all bets are off.

I will be watching the ads for sure.. each one

during the game costs $2.7 million per 30 seconds.

Wow wonder if we will get just one that sticks

out as really good? I will go to the store today

to get my usual supplies for the game before the

snow gets too bad on the weekend. I will use

more fruit and vegetables this year due to

Mom’s strict diet. The chili will be made with

ground turkey and the chips will be eliminated and

we will have a sugarfree dessert. I haven’t decided

what just yet. Maybe red white and blue jello! LoL

Hope you all have a great day!!

CHOCOLATE PRICE IS RISING!!

CHOCOLATE COST RISING!!

OH NO!!! Hershey’s is raising it’s prices! If they do

that so will other companies and many of us who love the

taste of a good chocolate will be the ones to pay

for it..literally!! Mom loves anything chocolate and

making something for her to eat has been a challenge

for sure. I have used the cocoa powder more than

ever since her diet change. I was sad to see the report

that they are raising the prices. Valentine’s day coming

up and you know you always like to seek out your

favorite treat. I go for the smooth chocolate..

the really milky kind ( I know it is bad for you) but

I still like my peanut butter cup once in a while.

I do like the new idea of a 100 calorie bar although

I have no idea what it tastes like. Whoppers and

Pieces in my younger days really were a favorite.

AHHHH the price we will have to pay for

indulging our cravings… IT JUST WENT UP..

If you remember Bosco syrup and a dog puppet Farfel

singing a tune called N- E- S- T- L- E- sssssss…then you

are of the age of candy bar that everyone could

afford. Back then a candy bar, and a large

one at that, used to be 5 CENTS You just

cringe now when you have to pay 1.00 for one!

Milk prices being what they are and cocoa beans

costing more to ship and grow well it was bound

to happen I guess. My favorites have changed

over the years.. but it all goes back to

“SOMETIMES YOU FEEL LIKE A NUT…

SOMETIMES YOU DON’T—— 

GUESS WHICH ONE I AM??? lol

WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE???

A BLIZZARD???????

Well the wind is howling and the snow

is really coming down.. We might get at

least 4 or 5 inches overnight

.. We will see…The house is

rocking from the 50mph wind gusts.. I cringe

when I hear noises, wondering what big tree

limb will be next. I heard a loud noise

coming from the back of the house.

A large limb fell in the neighbors yard.

The storm just starting…. that is not a good

sign.

Hopefully we will keep the power on

to keep us warm.. -10 wind chills in the

morning will be no fun if the power is

off.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here is a picture I took yesterday. Green

grass…no snow.. I am sure later today it

will be different. The other picture I took

a few days before ……snow.. go figure!!

  

 

HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT DAY !! STAY WARM!
