Guess what the forecast is? Yep, more snow. The good news is that the snow we have is slowly melting. It got up to a whopping 33 degrees today! The bad news is that more snow is moving through tonight, which should change to rain by tomorrow afternoon. Maybe after tomorrow we can get back to more normal weather.
Today we finished our beautiful puzzle, cleaned house, and frosted Christmas cookies with Grandma! She brought groceries with her so I can cook Christmas dinner. What a lifesaver!
The kids enjoyed a day inside today after spending much of the day playing in the snow yesterday. I think they've finally gotten over the excitement of the massive amounts of snow and they are really ready for Christmas! It still looks like we'll be having a white Christmas this year...

So tomorrow you make SNOW ICE CREAM!! I have OUR daddy's recipe:
Ingredients:
1 cup of evaporated milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
pinch of salt
CLEAN Snow
Preparation:
Go outside and get 4 - 5 cups of fresh, clean snow. Don't pack the snow! Bring it in the house and set it in the freezer until you need it.
Mix together the milk, vanilla, eggs and the sugar. Stir this mixture until the sugar is dissolved.
Slowly add the snow to your mixture, stirring constantly, until it is as thick as ice cream! Eat it up!
We sometimes didn't put eggs in it, but most of the time we did. It was yummy!
Have fun, and snuggle. Best antidote for snow is snow ice cream til you freeze and then hot Nestle's chocolate milk with 'mallows 'til you warm up!
