This past Thursday morning I woke up to a winter wonderland. It was beautiful and mild out. The snow was wet and heavy but not as much as the day before that. My neighbour was out with his snowblower and kindly cleared the bottom of our driveway where the road plow had just left a big pile. He offered to do the rest of the driveway but I told him I would be ok. I managed to clear the rest of the driveway while starting to think I should've taken him up on his generous offer!
After that, I went to the grocery store where a kind lady gave me her cart and didn't want to take the 25cents that we usually put into the buggy to release it for use. I did give her the 25cents. This was shaping up to be a good day! Then at checkout, a friendly cashier with whom I will sometimes chat, told me I was paying too much for some multi-pack boxes of facial tissue. I had just assumed it was on sale because they had them right out front on display. I decided not to buy them of course!
Do you have good days like that? It ended with me figuring out how to punch in the cube root of a number on K's scientific calculator all by myself! I help him figure out his grade 12 math problems.
I was reading this Chatelaine magazine at my hairdresser's recently. I found these interesting recipes you might want to have a look at. There is an easy recipe for buttercream icing and also one for an easy pasta sauce made with brown butter. I really thought it was more complicated than that, and I happen to love buttercream icing!
