Good morning.
Ours pretty much stayed as snow til evening when it turned to icy rain. Some of it is washed away, but there's still some snow and ice. The plows came by last night so there are ice bolders in front of our driveway that we'll have to take care of. It's 36 now with an expected high near 40, partly cloudy to sunnier in the afternoon. So most of the rest of it should melt. It's still icy out there, so schools are 2 hours late.
I got rid of some of my clutter yesterday, and made a nice big pot of vegetable soup.
We'll see how today goes.
Happy Friday, everyone.

Good evening;
Our snow didn't start until early evening. I am not sure how much we got but it was enough that we have to shovel. It was raining when I went to work this morning. The roads were clear.
Vix-yesterday was a good day for soup.
Hi Irene and Roger.

I just posted some humor
Hi
I'm back home from walking and 10 cents found breaking a streak of nothing found. The Temperature out the door was 37 degrees. Friday was a weird day with Thursdays snow having turned to rain and then after I would normally have been home it turned back to snow for a while. If You are wondering why I stayed indoors Friday, The streets were covered with wet slush and I could see myself being hit by slush thrown by passing cars. Southern NJ only had rain and wind. We got it all here.
Some of the leaves are tough. There were lots of broken off branches and uprooted trees due to certain species that still had lots of leaves and the snow built up on the leaves and branches and down they went. Tough on the people whose cars and houses had trees fall on them.

I thought that the weather reports showed rain over You area, They got it wrong ?
Did George at least get home with a not to long a drive time from the weather. The Way I look at it four wheel drive gets You moving better than normal drive, it does not help You stop or steer much better if at all, so good move not getting on the road.
Friday Morning by 11AM the roads had dried off and the sun was shining, later in the day the clouds returned.
I hope I did not mislead You, Pancakes are what they plan to substitute for the French Toast. I prefer the French Toast TBH.
Did You get Your delivery of NS early or ?
The sidewalks are for the most part OK, some icy frozen slush at some of the corners but overall it was not too bad walking today.
Have a Good Day

Hi VixGood morning.

Happy Friday, everyone.
The Snow turned to rain overnight heading into Friday and then after the sun came up turned back to snow. Then The Plows came by an plowed the Slush into piles at the foot of the driveway so we went out and cleared that out just in case the forecast for overnight freezing was accurate, It wasn't. We did not want hard piles of frozen slush at the foot of the driveway and sidewalk so a Shoveling we went.
There was one report I saw where a 10 mile drive took 9 hours
De-cluttering is always a good thing, we did some last week and to the recycle yard it went with a lot going into the Salvation Army Bins.
Home made Vegetable Soup, Yum, Yum

Hi Irene and Roger.
Have a good evening.
You got lucky I am guessing that Your traffic was nowhere near as snarled up as ours as a result of the later start time. Was Your snow a wet heavy snow too, ours ended up much closer to slush than snow
Raining I can handle it is sleet or freezing rain that is scary and dangerous.
BTW are You off for the weekend, Hopefully.
Cheers

Good morning.
I went out yesterday and got rid of the snow plow debris in front of our driveway. The rest melted off. We went to the park and started to walk on the trail, but parts of it were flooded so we turned around and walked on the paved roads and paths instead. It was cold, but good to get out.
I may go out today and try on some hiking boots. I'd lke to get something comfortable and waterproof...better than sneakers. Also want to shop for new gloves for hubby for the holiday.
It's overcast this morning and windy. Partly cloudy, high of 40.
Happy Saturday, everyone. 0 -

Good afternoon;
Roger-Our snow was wet but yours seems to have been much worse. I am off for the weekend.
I just had the had the spinach and cheese pretzel melt for lunch. I cooked it in the microwave'
It was ok. It may have tasted better if I had cooked it in the toaster oven. I will try that next time I order one.
Congrats on finding a dime.
Hi Irene.
Vix-good luck on your shopping trip.
I am doing laundry today and not much else.

I have a Pair of Boot insulated Shoe combination that I use if I expect to be trudging through puddles or snow. The Bottom is a like a pair of boots with an aggressive tread and the top is like leather work boots that support the ankle, I have never had wet feet in them, I guess I could get into water that is over the top and if that happened shame on me. That would mean I don't know what I was walking on. Water on the trail could in theory be covering slippery ice or mud. The coldest NJ weather does not chill my feet in those.
Gloves and Mittens are both in my arsenal, I also carry a pocket warmer that can be slipped down the mittens in case the battery runs down in my heated ones.
There is a slight possibility of rain sometime Monday
Have a Good Day

Wet snow is bad enough ours was more like a wet sponge
I like that one also. What I do is split the packaging, lay it in a shallow dish as a line then put the Melt upside down so that if the seam splits it does not spray the inside of the Microwave, No wrapping in a paper towel for any of the melts. I have to wonder if the paper towel is as much to keep from splattering the Microwave as any other reason. I also reduce heating time slightly.
You could also try heating it in the Microwave on a Crisper tray or in a crisper bag if You wanted it crisper ?
FWIW I like the three Stuffed Chicken Breasts a lot.
I saw a Worst Cooks in America Special the other day where they demonstrated Spatchcocking the Turkey.

How to Spatchcock Turkey For the Fastest, Crispiest, Juiciest Turkey Ever

https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/543-45-minute-roast-turkey
45-Minute Roast Turkey
Mark Bittman
Melina Hammer for The New York Times
In 2002, Mark Bittman published this revolutionary approach to roasting the Thanksgiving turkey, which allows you to cut the cooking time of the average turkey by about 75 percent while still presenting an attractive bird. Simply cut out the backbone — or ask your butcher to do it for you — and spread the bird out flat before roasting, a technique known as spatchcocking that is commonly used with chickens. Roasted at 450 degrees, a 10-pound bird will be done in about 45 minutes. Really. It will also be more evenly browned (all of the skin is exposed to the heat), more evenly cooked, and moister than birds cooked conventionally
I should do Laundry today too, Nah, Not on a day of rest, Sunday IOWs.
Have a Nice Day

Good morning.
Tried lots of hiking boots on yesterday. Ended up finding a pair of lightweight waterproof ones. Good to try them on in the store...had to go to 3 stores to find my size in the ones I liked. Ordering them online from Amazon and saving $50!
Roger, I read about the spatch-cocked turkey last year, and the fried turkey before it Let me know how it is if you try it. I'm pretty good at cooking a nice juicy, well browned traditional turkey. Easy enough to pop it in the oven early.
Hi Jo and Irene.
Happy Sunday, everyone.

I'm back home from walking and no cents found. The Temperature out the door was 32 degrees.
It would appear from the weather forecast that we are heading into a period of below normal temperatures with Thanksgiving day being the coldest.

I find that if I get out early I am out before the temperature has has reached the lowest temp. So as I warm up from walking the temperature is dropping slightly and that works for me.
I do not really blame You for deciding to stay in and have a nice cup of coffee, That is colder than what we have had so far. I would have thought that being further south You would be warmer than I.

Hi Jo and Irene.
Happy Sunday, everyone.
I doubt that we will do that as my brother is a traditional type, in cooking and recipes and what is cooked for the Holiday.
Mom always cooked the Turkey low and slow until the meat was ready to fall of the bones.
I have a problem finding shoes that fit properly in the stores. My brother having even wider feet really has a problem finding shoes locally and will not buy online without trying them on.
Have a Nice Day

Good morning.
Mostly cloudy today, 40, high of 54. Warmer than it's been. I have an acupuncture appointment this afternoon. Went to the park yesterday, was dry enough to walk the path, just had to go around some muddy spots. I'd like to do my thanksgiving shopping today, will see if hubs feels like it.

Monday turned into a really nice day outside. This morning when walking I should have worn lighter gloves, I ended up with hands that were too warm inside of them or a bit cold without them.
Those darn muddy spots can be slippery, I have slid when I hit one I had missed seeing.
My Brother plans to stop at the grocery Store today for anything that might have been missed Sunday. So far the Cranberry Sauce has been made and is in a container in the refrigerator. Pumpkin Pies will be baked later today. Likely Stuffing and maybe Mashed potatoes made both ready to be heated on Thanksgiving day once the Turkey has been cooked. The main decision is Cook the Turkey Low and Slow or with a higher heat.
My guess is that the grocery store will be very busy ahead of the Holiday.

LL Bean makes good items, and easy to exchange if the size is wrong also.

Good morning.
Walked in the park again yesterday. The weather was beautiful...in the 50s. Got about 1/2 of the things I need for Thanksgiving. Hubby will probably go to the other supermarket today and pick up the rest, or I'll go after class. Stained glass and clay today.
Happy Tuesday, eveyone. 0 -

Monday and Tuesday were OK for most of the day until Tuesday started turning colder.
My brother did a ShopRite Run Tuesday to pick up anything else that might be needed.
I hope the classes went well, I meant to ask do You get a credit or refund when they are canceled by weather as happened last week ?
Today should be busy with preparing things ahead for Tomorrow.
Have a Good Day

I am not surprised that the ShopRite was busy. I suspect that most people already redeemed for the free Turkey since they are frozen if You pick them up today You are pushing Your luck. OTOH there are always procrastinators out there such as the ones still shopping for gifts Christmas Eve
Even today was not bad walking, Tomorrow I have no doubt that I will be putting the Hood on my Hoodie up and maybe tie it in place if there is a breeze. I think I may go out later and pick up a 1$ coffee at McDonalds to heat before walking Thursday Morning, OTOH I know the 7-Eleven never closes and I may also swing past the Quick Chek and see if they have holiday hours posted. The Problem with going to McDonalds is the tasty temptations they sell.
Have a Nice Day
