Snowed in . . . . . again

Small, wet, snowflakkes have been coming down since early this morning. 

First I made up a basket of belly bands for the male dogs with potty issues.

Then I decided to make up chicken & rice for the dogs so the chicken is now in the crock pot slowly cooking. It will be ready to add rice, carrots, garlic & green beans tomorrow.

Then my sweet tooth kicked in so I made chocolate chip and snicker doodle cookies. 

As long as I was cooking, I decided to make stuffed peppers and freeze them for the weekend. 

 

Since the stuff peppers are for the weekend I think we'll have spaghetti for supper tonight. I browned a little hot Italian sausage, onions, green pepper and mushrooms. . . .

Then I mixed in a can of tomatoe sauce, diced tomatoes w/Jalepeno peppers, paste, spices and let it cook for a few hours. Yum.

So that's what I did with my day, what did you do with yours?

Snow. . . .

I took the dogs outside about an hour ago and snapped a few photos.  Doesn't it look pretty? Do I have to tell you how glad I am that I don't have to go to work in this or drive in it?

This grist mill houses a chipmunk in the summer. It loves to drive the dogs crazy.  Today, the Spoiled Royals get the last laugh. Of course, spring is a mere few months away. . .

I swept the snow off the deck, put the broom away and already it was starting to get covered. Gaylin ran out and started eating snow.  Silly boy.

Snow covered lights. . . .

and chimineas.

Oh yeah, lots of toys were in the yard so I tossed them back on the deck.  My dogs do love toys.

Nicki is the only foster here at the moment.  I'm hoping either our daughter or a friend will adopt her.  Isn't she gorgeous? She is a great dog, and available for adoption through Just A Touch Rescue. I can't imagine why someone dumped her in the country. . . . .

This is just one of a hundred reasons why I so love my husband.  He built this a few months ago.  I'm not sure what I did to deserve him, but I send a prayer of thanks out daily. The older dogs find the ramp so helpful.
