Or is it? I woke up this morning expecting some snow on the ground but there was nothing! So I turned on the tv to see what happened. Apparently, the front didn't grow into what they predicted. They are still saying we should get some freezing rain, but I haven't seen anything yet.
Just in case, I went out at 8 a.m. this morning to get cash for my daughter's allowance (which I owed to her on the 1st - oops!), a gift that will remain unnamed (got a good deal on it), and some matzoh meal.
Matzoh meal? What's that about? I saw a recipe for Latkes yesterday and they sounded so yummy that I decided we should try to make some in honor of our Jewish friends. I'm not sure how they would feel about it but I'm forging ahead. However, I'm only going to make a 1/2 recipe in hopes that it will mean success.
I have a party to attend tonight but if there's any hint of slick streets, I'll stay home. I really am cautious about driving in this stuff. Too many people think that just because they have four-wheel drive or snow tires, they can drive in anything. We all know that's not true so I won't take any chances. Even on good days with perfect weather, people overestimate how good they drive.
And to think, this time last year we were in Honolulu, basking in the warmth! Last year as we were doing the marathon, we got word that it was snowing in Portland. Is this a sign of changing weather patterns for us? Should we start expecting very cold weather the first couple of weeks of December? Only time will tell.
I think I will go bake some cookies now. Seems like an appropriate activity for a cold morning/afternoon.
