Poor little guy. I hope he can join his friends on their walk on the wall.

The Ice Cardinal Asks You to Feed The Birds
It's cold outside so don't forget to feed the birds. I have to pick up another huge bag of sunflower seeds when I venture out today. Stay warm.

Keep Calm and Shovel Snow
The front is done, my car is cleaned off, the front part of the driveway has been plowed and shoveled as well. Saving the back for tomorrow. I kept up with the snow yesterday and maybe that made it easier today. I finally picked the perfect spot to park my car so the plow man can do both ends of my semicircular drive and then all I have to do is shovel a little around my car and clean it off. It worked perfectly.
The wind is still howling and I'm quite sure the snow will drift over my walkway again. Oh well, what can you do. It could have been worse. At least it was that light powdery stuff and not the wet heavy stuff.
Snow Day At The Cottage
Making yellow show on the walk this morning.
The snow had drifted over the bluestone path in the high wind.
The wind is howling and the snow has drifted. I still haven't been outside but must venture out and shovel pretty soon. My living room floor was covered with fine ashes from the fireplace due to the high winds and down drafts. I had to leave the flue open because the embers were still glowing when I went to bed. All in all I think we got off pretty easy. I live on a county road that gets plowed very regularly. Various friends can't say the same. The roads maintained by the small towns around here are often quite treacherous. Be safe and stay warm. See you later.

107 Recipes For Favorite Restaurant Dishes
Recipe #20 Oceanaire Seafood Room's Maryland-style crab cakes. I like this recipe because these crab cakes are baked, not fried.
Have fun clicking (and drooling) through all the photos.

The Day After Christmas + Snow
Enjoying my wireless access in front of the fire. It's nice to be untethered. Thick wool socks and flannel-lined jeans complete this picture of contentment.
The blizzard has begun and I don't even care. I'm as snug as a bug in a rug. Here's hoping you are too. Be careful if you have to be out in it.
