OT - volunteering

Speaking of volunteering, anyone want to volunteer to take a chart and
some beads off my hands? I finished Bent Creek's Snowman Snowglobe -
it is a zipper kit, but of course I used the supplies . However,
the chart is still usable and I have some beads left over. . .

You can see it he

So funny you guys should talk about this. I live in Nanaimo! Just
the other night we were talking about how Nanaimo Bars are known all
over the world

...and I agree, they do sound fiddly, but they really are very easy to
make and delicious

take care, Linda D.

It's pronounciation is very close to "Nan - I'm - Oh"
"Nan" as in "Nan"cy,
"I'm" as in "I'm" going to stitch,
"Oh" as in "O"clock,

I like the peppermint flavoured ones less the coconut.

If nothing changes, nothing changes.
Don't back stitch to email, just stitchit.

I'm volunteering again ... instead of donating blood like I do several times a
year, I am hereby volunteering to be the recipient because I am in desperate
need of an energy boost!

Sounds as though you need one of those Nanaimo bars!

BTDT. Evidently we're in a 48 hour weather cycle...weather pattern
repeats every two days. Couple inches of snow, then clear and COLD,
couple inches of snow, then clear and COLD, ad nauseum. We've already
set a record for snow and it will keep getting reset until we're out
of this pattern. We're up to 30" so far. It was -18F (-27C) last
night with -36 (-37C) windchill, snow forecast for tonight and
tomorrow. yay.

It's not clear here whether this Scot will get out tonight. A
blizzard is forecast (it's you again Cheryl, you're my Trojan Horse!!)
and so far the forecasters are not exactly saying when, I did hear one
last night say if you were home by one in Halifax you should be safe,
but that could change. Wait till 7:30 I guess and see.
Well, it's getting whiter out there.

I hope it doesn't make it to you.

Thinking the same thing - that or chocolate toffee bars. Made the MIL's
recipe for walnut torte earlier. Wow - was that one stiff batter to fold
egg whites into. Classic nut torte - no shortening - egg yolks beaten w/
ground nuts, minimal flour, baking soda, vanilla - then beaten egg whites
folded in. DH kept saying that he was sure she did it in a 9X13 pan, but I
did a 7" X 11" - and that seemed about right.

I did replenish the baking chocolate yesterday (Ghirardelli bars on sale).
So, some chocolate will be made.

We had some mini-flurrie's earlier. It's probably cold out - with the wind.
I have to go to the bank in a while. We've decided not to go out to our
friends in MD tonight - as DH is worried I'll have another migraine, and
we'll be 50 mi away. So, I just put dry rub on ribs we bought, and ww'll
have our own ridiculous, splurgy, unbalanced New Years eve.

Roughly Na-nai-mo with the stress on the second syllable. It is a
contraction of the name for the local indigenous people (Snanaimo)
meaning 'great people'.
