We were hit with a major blizzard dumping more than 16 inches in the nearby city! We have up to five foot drifts of snow all over the property! What fun!
Our pool is 4 feet high, the drifts, about 3 feet!
It cracks me up to see bare cement and then a 3 foot drift.
It was a blast to try and walk through the deep snow.
We decided to race to the end of the property. I can’t remember the last time I was so out of breath. My lungs ached!!
We were laughing so hard, which made it even harder to run effectively.
Brian eventually tackled me while I squealed with delight! The children were all so excited. What a fun time.
I also baked today! Two beautiful cinnamon raisin sourdough loaves and eight (only 4 pictured) “Stecca" loaves. I put thinly sliced tomatoes and salt on one of them, and sliced Kalamata olives on another. I adapted the recipe from yeast to sourdough. It is delicious. The crust is thin, yet crisp and the inside is tender and full of large holes! Perfect! I would love to make sandwiches with these. Picture thinly sliced Italian deli meats, a sharp provolone and some baby greens! Mama Mia! Delizioso! Oh, wait, how about various Italian meats and cheeses with an olive tapenade! Oh my.

You must live right near us! We got the 12- 18 inches prediction and I have 3-5 foot drifts in my driveway!! Yay, we love it!
Wow, I've seen it on TV but haven't known anyone in the cross-hairs of that storm. I am glad you are safe and sound and finding a way to enjoy all the snow.
Michelle, I'll trade ya! I'll take your snow if you'll take our ice! LOL ;) It sure does look beautiful! I love to bake in this weather, too. Makes the house just cozy. Stay warm!
What Fun! We got 21 inches in our town....what a day! The bread looks amazing!!! Thanks for sharing your life with us.
XOXO,
