I LOVE the Winter and all things cold and SNOW -
so I'm psyched and keeping my toes and fingers crossed
we get a good sized storm!!!
Last year was a non-winter and I missed it terribly.
So, what did I do to prepare?
Well obviously we've got in plenty of food and essentials...
and for me that means I got some YARN !
A dear friend has a special birthday coming up,
so I'm making her a cozy STINKER in her favorite color:
Stay safe everyone and enjoy NEMO !!!!

Do you still make your afghans to sell. I think I need a hot pink one. I love a good winter storm but it makes Stuarts life a lot if extra work. I live being huddled in and safe. I like to make soup and bake a little. I'm not the one who has to go out and feed and bed animals Thank Goodness!!
Trust your area will not be affected too much. Stay in and warm. Take care,
I got such a smile seeing you prepare for the storm with yarn. You are a woman after my own heart. Hope you have fun crafting. Happy Pink Saturday.
Bear Hugs,
Carol
Hi!
I live in North Jersey. We got 12.5 inches of snow. I love snow too! I had wonderful projects to work on too, so I was more than happy to have to stay in the house.
Now it is suppose to rain tomorrow and wash it all away. Oh well. It sure is pretty now.
