I just realized that if power were to be lost again here, we're past the point of decision  -- there'd be no question of trying to get anywhere for the night.  First, my driveway probably isn't passable.  House is warm now, just bundle it up and ride it out, storm will be gone by mid-morning, gather things in the daylight and then get out.  

I hate even thinking about this stuff...twice in two weeks.


I didn't imagine you would consider leaving tonight.  Where would you go?

I have a friend's house lined up.  But it would have to be tomorrow.  They're some 10-15 miles away.

I hope you don't need to go to your friend's home.

Oh, I don't seriously think I'll have to.  I was just forcing myself to think at least a couple of steps ahead.

I forgot to mention our exciting news, the landscapers finished today!  We are thrilled they are gone. :)  We are also very happy with the results.

Congrats, Jane and Keith!

was that your driveway in the picture or was that a stream?

That was it!  Long sucker, eh?  And you should see the other end where it descends to the road.    :)

Yes, still got firewood, but after this it's time for another 1/4- or 1/2-cord.

gosh!  I hope you have a snowblower!

(I hadn't yet gotten my usual fall delivery of wood, so these two storms themselves are pretty much depleting what was left over from last year.)

thank goodness you had leftovers!

Vote, vote, vote (that is three votes).  The show that's above us, the Titanic concert has a big huge cast and all the Musical Theatre Guild people will vote.  That's what this is all about, I'm afraid, but then again I have a LOT of friends :)  Also, the Sterling's Next Great Stage Star thing which is running neck and neck with us has a lot of followers.

Vote away - we're currently in third place but all it takes are votes.  Tell your friends.  Anyone can vote.  Yes, it's a silly popularity contest and those with the largest number of friends voting win - but why not play?

Juliana wrote me to thank me for making her act.  Melody's mother did not and I guess that's par for the course right now.

My dear sweet wonderful friend, BK, I hope we never have a falling out!

Do tater tot casseroles always have ground beef in them?  I like ground beef. But the idea of the casserole sounds more appealing to me without the beef.

The beauty of makjing your own casserole is you can put anything you want in it :)

I'd just never heard of a tater tot casserole till a few days ago. So not sure if the ground beef is a common ingredient.

Yes, it is a common ingredient.  In fact i don't think i've had it without ground beef, but it could be done with chicken or something else

I think i would just like the tater tots with no meat!



Tater tots by themselves are eaten like French fries.  I would think they would make a pretty boring casserole by themselves.

Vixdad is trapped in Brooklyn - the LIRR suspended service because of weather -  apparently there were trees and wires down  at various locations

34 degrees out according to the weather channel but it continues to snow~ doesn't that mean it has to be below 32?

Nope.

Started watching "Charade." Cheap DVD. The skin tones are lobster-y and it doesn't really matter. Cary Grant is Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn is Audrey Hepburn, and that's all that matters.
