Semiformal

These pictures were taken Wed morning just before the big 30 cm dump

Well, it seems we had a record-breaking (30cm) one day February snowfall yesterday. We shovelled and shovelled, it was exhausting.

A friend was telling me this morning how she fell and hurt her tailbone while skating recently. Ouch! Luckily she was wearing her helmet as she also banged her head, but she's fine otherwise.

L has a senior semiformal tonight, so she and a couple of friends are getting their hair and makeup done professionally. They just want to maximize the fun, most of the others will get ready at home. I heard that a bunch of the senior boys decided not to attend the prom and have a party at someone's home instead. Must be a phase they're going through.

We signed L up for an advanced tennis class for the spring session, so she is looking forward to that. She may even try out for the inter-county league in the summer.

I bought some flatbread and some pizza ingredients including some prosciutto (ham), looking forward to that this weekend. I wish I had also got some pancetta (bacon) to try with it.
