We’re in the midst of a terrible snowstorm over here in Maryland. They said to expect blizzard-like conditions and the weatherman predicted up to thirty inches of snow. People have been talking about this storm all week and before I left my job on Friday evening, my employer sent out an email, stating that our job was closed the following day (Friday) because of the impending storm. They also say that this MAY be one of the biggest storms in DC history! Some people are now without power and our lights have flickered a few times, but we still have electricity! It’s unusual to get so much snow in this part of the country – that’s why it’s so hard for us to deal with. We don’t have the resources to shovel and plow this much snow and still be able to get around. Most businesses are closed, except for hospitals and emergency places. I took a quick pic with my cell phone. Here it is:
My son is excited about the snow. He says it’ll get real high, “Taller than me, Mommy.” I told him he can’t go out and play in it, there’s too much, and we wouldn’t get very far in it, anyway. It’ll be interesting to see what it’ll look like when it’s done.
Yesterday, I baked a chocolate cake since it was so cold and snowy. Hubby loved it. Here’s the recipe I used if you’re interested in making this tasty treat!
