Snow, snow and more snow!

Eliam and I finally decided to brave the snow yesterday and walked down to the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks more commonly known as the Ballard Locks :). I took my Medium Cafe Bag and Little Swift along for the journey.

I know it's caused all sorts of inconvenience for you, but I'm still enough of a kid I guess to love the snow! I envy you; we're having one of the mildest winters on record down here. Lovely photos, especially of the archways. Keep warm, and drink lots of hot chocolate!

Stay warm and safe!

Very mild winter here too. So far. Makes me worry about April.....

It has finally started to warm up! I believe it's even raining instead of snowing right now. Which is good because I was starting to miss the rain.

Make me worry about now, in the midwest, there was a widespread tornado watch and localized tornado warnings on Tuesday which moved east causing damage.

Earlier in the week there was a line of storms, some which became tornadoes, started in Texas and ended up in North Carolina, causing damages in both places.

Ugh! I've always hated tornados!

Beautiful pictures of the snow Katy!

Any excuse for a hot chocolate when you get home...which reminds me, I think it's time to get some myself! It's been few hours already, and I've been out in the snow too. :)

You know what, I totally didn't have any hot chocolate in my apartment :(. I also ran out of coffee. I refused to attempt to go to the the store. I went last Saturday and had to stand in line for nearly an hour to check out. EVERY single lane (over 20 lanes) had at least 15 people in line.

YOU RAN OUT OF HOT CHOCOLATE!??! (You know that is considered a food group - at least in my version of the required foods!)

I should have flown out there with a supply, I'd just have to find a pair of snow-shoes to get through the snow of course. (How does one explain to customs / immigration - "I'm on a mission, I mean an emergency!')

If by ran out you mean never purchased to begin with, the answer is yes :). I keep meaning to buy some of the "drinking chocolate" from Theo though, I just always forget when I'm in their store. I'm usually at the confection bar for a good 20 minutes deciding what I want.
