it's a beautiful and freezing cold day!
the whole east coast is going to get blitzed by a doozy storm! thankfully, our little part of the island is going to escape the worst of it! we'll get some snow and some fierce winds but nothing like the rest of nova scotia is going to get!
but no worries kids - we had french toast for breakfast and everyone knows that pure nova scotia maple syrup can get you through just about anything!
pure nova scotia maple syrup is pretty awesome stuff - but not even close to the stuff that jam's step-dad makes!!!
we just finished all of our preparations for this storm - generator is ready, our 23,000 BTU kerosene heater is ready, candles: check, lanterns: check, tons of food: check. jam's been out in the yard tieing various things down and we've done a general sweep around the house.
to all the people in the provinces and states that have had serious weather advisories - we hope that you will be ok during the storm. it'll be an interesting couple of days, that's for sure!
Snowing here, so most of us were sent home from work. Spending some time online and working over a story to send to a magazine. Hope you don't lose power or anything, but suspect that you're prepared if you do. Stay warm!
ReplyDeleteMeant to say "more than adequately" prepared! lol
ReplyDeleteGlad you guys are ready for what's coming your way. Maple Syrup?? I feel by my blood sugar raise already.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are all prepared! You and Jam are in my prayers, along with everyone else in the path of this storm. Stay safe.
ReplyDeleteStay warm, stay cozy, maybe make some maple syrup cookies.
ReplyDeleteNot to rub it in, but, we are almost at seventy degree's here in Denver. Most of the snow is gone from town. I almost got out my cut offs, till I found that they don't fit now.
The both of you stay safe.
Good to hear you have battened down the hatches, Kymber. It's a beautiful, sunny 65* here today. I planted blackberries! Stay warm and enjoy the view when it is snowing horizontally. (-:

Hey Gurlie,
ReplyDeleteYes please batten down your hatches, it is going to get for you guys and the entire northeast of the US. I have had french toast on my mind for a while, so you are making me want to get up and make some for breakfast in the morning.
Please stay safe up there. We will be worried Love to you both
Stay safe, warm & full of all your delicious food. I never had any doubt at all that you guys were very well prepared!
ReplyDeleteEntire East Coast? Speak for yourself! LOL North Carolina only catches the edge of it. Where I am at it's going to be rainy and in 40s and 50s over next few days.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Baltimore is going to catch it though, and that is below the Mason-Dixon line.
This is the first time I can remember that we haven't had at least one good snow storm in December or January. Glad to hear you guys are all ready for yours!!!
ReplyDeleteStay safe and warm! Embarssingly, our weather is current high 60's.
ReplyDeletehit 68 degrees today with a gentle rain. If you want to survive anything you need Kentucky Bourbon! just saying........
ReplyDeleteyou mean that Saskatchewan has nicer weather than Novie Scotcher? Keep warm! I used to live outside of New Glasgow and miss a lot of the life in Nova Scotia!
ReplyDeleteWill be a good day or two to enjoy some tea and a good book while it is blustery outside. Be safe & warm!
ReplyDeleteSweet Kymber,
ReplyDeleteI know you and Jambaloney are prepared for this storm. You're ready for anything mother nature has thrown your way. Even though you're not getting the extreme weather like certain parts of N.S., stay safe, warm inside, and enjoy good home cooking, plenty of homemade tea, and maybe even a nap or two :-)
Sending hugs and love to our good friends.
Sandy and Bulldog Man
Let me know how you made out once the storm is over. I know it's going to hit up there but hopefully the worst will be down south of you.
ReplyDeleteWhatever happens, I am sure you and J will be fine, you have a good set up.
We just got a light covering of snow today for the first time this year, and I realised how we really should be more prepared with food and provisions incase we get snowed in!
ReplyDeleteStay warm!
