Slow day

The morning sounds are different, everything is hushed. It's so quiet, one almost can hear the slow flakes touching down. As the roads are blanketed with snow, we fold away all of our previous plans and possible errands. Today there's time for baking, making and just being. Even time for a little walk. I like that.

Ooh, it looks so pretty! I'd take a little more of the white stuff in exchange for the bitter COLD we're having. Can you arrange that?

I've been wondering if you guys got any snow this week. Beautiful description of your day and those are great pics! I'm wishing we had some of that snow - it's all brown and wet here.

Wow it is just stunning...so beautiful! A real wonderland for someone who has never seen that before! If only I could pop over for a stroll with you all...and maybe just a taste of your baking. What a great day to just *be*.

Beautiful!
Perhaps you might want to get out Whittier's "Snow Bound" and read portions of it to "Rowan.
We are lucky- we escaped the recent frozen precipitation- it arrived in liquid form.
Love, Dad

There is something so classic and comforting about that shot of the mitten in the snow!
