Glad y’all had nice new snow to ski for The Holiday weekend.
Friend said it was powlicious at Lab today.
Looks like another windy wet cool one is incoming.
Hope folks don’t lose power or have damages if the trees get iced up.
The lake effect machine should follow along with things calming back down again later on.

Yup.
Enjoy every sammich.

Gonna meet some golfing friends for breakfast if the weather ain’t bad at the time.
Made another batch of blueberry stuff but was outta lemon juice so I dumped some frozen red raspberries in it instead. Smelled great when things were cooling.

Wish BYOB was allowed inside.
(Bring yer own berries).
I’m gonna share even if it’s in the parking lot.

One thing nice about cold weather is ya get to eat food full of energy cause ya need to. I don’t even think about making the stuff in the summertime.
