Is actually starting off much better than last winter. By this time last year we were under so much snow. From just before Christmas through the first week in January we had 3 or 4 storms. MAJOR storms with feet of snow. This year? I can still see the grass in places. It’s been REALLY cold though which I don’t like and icy. I’d rather have the snow than the cold. Actually, I’d rather have no winter! But I live where it’s winter when it’s winter. All of Canada had a white Christmas this season which is the first time it’s happened since 1971. Next winter is supposed to be even worse (the second worse if not THE worst here in 100 years…last winter was the second worst in 40 years apparently). Maybe I can move somewhere warm before this fall? Nah, probably not.

I think it’s the time of year. It makes me feel tired even when it’s mid-day. Or it could be the fact I was up later than usual? And then slept funny? The baby slept until normal time though so I didn’t lose too much sleep overall but I’m just so sleepy! And cold. I hate the winter!
Today I’m going to attempt Pita Breads, Chocolate Chip cookies and possibly Challah. I *heart* my mixer!
So I’ve coveted a Kitchen-Aid Stand Mixer for, oh, 20 years? Actually probably over 20 years. I’ve been cooking for almost 30 (and yes, I realize that I’m only 34…my first “meal” was just before I was 4; I was cooking full meals by 10) years so it’s easily been 20 that I’ve been coveting one. I don’t bake either because I hate do knead and mix everything by hand. Every time we went past one over the last 15 years, I’d sigh and turn to Andrew and say I REALLY want one of these!
