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! |

It's snowing here and then it's going to get COLD!!!! 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. Joan |

A day without chocolate is worse than a day without sunshine. You may quote me ;-) Damn - and I'm out of chocolate unless DD and I make brownies later. It's snowing here and then it's going to get COLD!!!! 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. |

You may quote me ;-) Damn - and I'm out of chocolate unless DD and I make brownies later. 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. It's snowing here and then it's going to get COLD!!!! 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. Ellice |

It is a contraction of the name for the local indigenous people (Snanaimo) meaning 'great people'. MargW |
