The Coffee House-Come and Chat With Us!(December 2019)

I've put up my Christmas tree and want to do more decorations, but they might have to wait until tomorrow, as I have to work later. The weather has been as advertised: snow, then sleet, now a mix of rain and sleet. It's supposed to turn back to snow tomorrow. I hope it's not too icy. I need my power to stay on.

This is our big 3-5 snowstorm so far.

Hahaha, that looks like my deck, too. It's currently sleeting. The cat does not like the sound of it pelting the windows. We're allegedly getting more accumulation tomorrow, but we will see. I'm skeptical.

That’s what I’m hearing too. You know I’m skeptical especially after this debacle lol.

Same here! I mean, it's good that I came back from Rhode Island last night because I did get the tree up and all that. And I've been knitting a little. So it's all good, but I expected at least 3 inches by now.

How far is Rhode Island from your place ?

I don't think we got any snow here yet, i haven't looked outside. The husband was up at 6 and went right back to co structing his tv stand for his new tv! (Vegans don't kill...vegans dont kill...vegans dont kill...)

It's about an hour and a half drive to my parents' house. My parents really wanted me to stay over because they missed me. I hadn't seen them in three weeks because of the plans I had with friends and family.

That's quite a long drive. I hope that you can catch up very soon.

The sky is dark purple with a narrow strip of orange-red just over the horizon. All the houses are dark, a few with Yule-themed lights. Stunning view! On my way to work on the early bus today.

Woke up at 1, went through one of my cookbooks looking for ideas for this week. Its gonna be a good week. My folks are coming down for the holiday get together, so i get to see them. I also get to share some of my vegan cooking with them. They are getting pasties from a local place, so i am cooking myself whatever i want! Ha! Plus, i know they will want to "sample" what i brought.

It's a very mild and sunny day. I have put up my tiny, weeny Christmas tree.

 

[Qwaychou]

Today my parents are in town to have xmas dinner and do the gift thing. They are getting pasties from a local diner, but I'm having lasagna and minestrone soup! I'm gonna rock it today!

[shyvas]

It's a nice, sunny day and the shops are open due to it being a christmas month.

 

[Qwaychou]

Snow-filled clouds looming over us this morning up here. Its been holding off for a while, maybe today we'll get it?
As for me, my house looks like its been ransacked, and i need to clean.

 

[Forest Nymph]

I got to feed pigs today. Kuni Kuni babies. A good day in nature with friends.

 

[KLS52]

Those piglets are adorable.

 

[shyvas]

Those piglets are adorable.

Yes, I would pignap them if I had a large garden and shelter.

So, i have a mushroom crockpot with yukon gold taters, carrots and onions. I also have a "cheesy" rice bake going in the oven. The recipe had me toast the nooch, oh my goodness, my house smells amazing!
