South of I-10

Then come the wild weather, come sleet or come snow, we will stand by each other, however it blow.

Well, today was something of a holiday here. It snowed last night. I suppose it's been about 15-20 years since it snowed last because we live so far South.
When my husband woke up he said that there was snow outside. I didn't believe him because, he is a jokster of the first order.
However, my fellow teacher made an early morning phone call to me and said, "We're not having school today because of the snow!"
I jumped out of bed to look out of the window and, sure enough, white blanketed the ground and trees. It was beautiful. What a wonderful day to stay indoors and prepare for the holidays.
It was baking day. I baked 12 mini-cakes. They have to cure fore two weeks. Tommorow, I will bake about 100 cookies. This year, we are doing homemade gifts. It really makes it special. You cannot buy the time that is put into a homemade gift.
Great day!!!!!!!!!!!!!
