I wore my snow boots today hoping to get to walk in the snow. I bought a pair of “all weather shoes” from Land’s End (though I bought them at Sears) and really haven’t had a chance to “break them in” yet. It seems to be snowing a bit more now, but I doubt there will be much more than a dusting tomorrow.
We were jinxed out of getting 4 inches of snow today. Yesterday in the announcements, the home ec teacher informed everyone that in the event of a snow day, the mock wedding would be rescheduled for Friday. Well, gee, as soon as you make an announcement like that, you’ve scuppered any chance of there being a snow day! Tsk tsk! So we didn’t have any snow on the ground today, and very little on the ground by the time I walked home from school.
Our other curse is the I-70 curse. I-70 (one of the country’s east-west interstate highways) seems to be a weather line in Ohio. “People living north of I-70 should expect to see 1-2″ of snow, those south should see 3-4″” etc. Well, when I lived south of I-70, it was the folks north of I-70 who seemed to get all the nice snow. Well, now that I’m living north of I-70 (again – I grew up here) the snow’s gone south. *sigh* I think it’s all waiting until March.
Tomorrow’s Friday, so I’ll probably dress casually. And wear my snow boots again. Just in case, see…
“Mock wedding”? Like the Brittney Spears one? 😉
Dunno about the Britney Spears thingy, but every year the Work and Family Living class holds a mock wedding. I guess so the girls can get indoctrinated into the heterosexual way of committment. I wonder if they’ll ever do a mock Same Sex Union… (Heh, who am I kidding?)
How would one go about making that? I had some from starbucks.. I agree it’s a very interesting sensation [the hot/cold]
Well, the way I made it was two heaping tablespoons of peppermint hot cocoa mix into 3/4 cup of hot water… Rachel gave me a set of 3 cocoa mixes – peppermint flavored chocolate, vanilla & white chocolate, and regular chocolate. So I don’t have to do anything else to make the beverages. Works for me!
What brand? I’ve not seen any for sale yet..
Starbucks own brand. (Rachel works for Starbucks & got the staff discount.)
