Snow, redux
Nov. 24th, 2010 05:09 pmHeh. So here I am, preparing dinner-for-four. I have shopped and chopped and sizzled; I have hollowed out my pumpkin and prepared my stock; I have planned a starter for whoever comes first, and a nice warming pud for afters.
And only now, at 5pm, have I thought to look out of the window.
Um. It seems to me not impossible that all my dinner will come out lovely, and there will be nobody but me and the boys to eat it.
It is chucketing buckets of snow out there. If it keeps this up another hour, driving will be dangerous. Hell, it's probably dangerous already, what do I know? At the moment, people are still doing it. But I just heard an emergency vehicle go by with its sirens wailing...
