Baby It's Cold Outside!

Well, right now there is a -15 degree wind chill going on!! But don't worry about me...I am so lucky! It is Saturday and Sunday and I don't have to set foot out of the house all weekend!! I have everything I need for the next two days all right inside my house. Mike and I will have fun just hanging out with Buddy and Pal (our cats!).
We went out Friday night to have dinner at Mike's favorite taco place, Taco Fresco, and after that we went to Trader Joe's to lay in supplies for the weekend. For me, it is chips, hummus, and almonds!!! We have blankies to keep us warm. Books to entertain us. I have studying to do too.
Hopefully, I can get a big chunk of paralegal studying done so that on Sunday I can do some stamping! I am also interested to see the Green Bay football game as they will be playing in the subzero cold.
I really should use my time inside to make many phone calls to friends and family I have not talked to in some time due to being so darn busy at work and with the new school program. I hope to do that, but sometimes I end up being a total hermit and not talking to anyone. I am thinking of all my friends and family this weekend though and hope you are staying warm and having a lovely time!!! For all of you in warm climates, please watch the weather news this weekend to see how good you have it!!

Hi, Laura,

The Marmelade Gypsy visited Trader Joe's too! Isn't that the best? A dangerous spot to be sure! Love your posted photos -- the blankets look so cozy!

It's cold here in MIchigan, too. Good luck studying -- art time is a powerful motivator!

Laura, You've been awarded!

And I'm with you about hummus and almonds. Heck, I can eat chick peas right out of the can without even bothering with garlic and tahini!

I love each of the photos. Where do you come up with such good ones? Our phone is a replica of the black one, only it has push buttons. It has that lovely old ring, and it is beautiful. I found it online for about $50. I love hummus, too, and I may have to make some tomorrow. :<) I like to soak the beans overnight so the cooking doesn't take so long.
