It's snowing like mad outside. I'd guess that 6 inches already fell and it's still coming down hard. My plan is to get outside and shove to help stem the tide and then go out again before dark. (I really should have left my car in the driveway last night.)
They don't plow the side streets by me so, hopefully, after I shovel I'll be able to get out to Whole Foods. It's totally a day to stay indoors but I have no food in the house and I want to bake some pies tonight. Chocolate pecan pies!
The holiday party last night was insane. The house was decked out with lights and graphics and a live reindeer. As guests arrived, we all took our photos with the reindeer and were given a copy of the photo before we left. The house was immaculate and the back doors were removed to make room for "Club Blu." Heated tents were set up with a full bar and a lounge complete with live music from Johnny Trudell and his band. When we left, everyone got a packet of cookies, milk, and a carrot to leave for Santa. I've never seen anything like it. I'm pretty sure that "lounge" could fit in my entire house.

callmesandy's idea, below is an icon poll. Come and play!
[Poll #1107005]
ETA: I was out for about 30 minutes and had the sidewalk and 1/5 of my driveway done when my next door neighbor drove by and told me that he was going to pick up gas for the snow blower. I'm going to make an assumption that he told me because he's, thank goodness, going to blow my driveway for me and not telling me to rub it in that he doesn't have to break his body shoveling what's actually 7- 8" of snow.
