What to do on a snowed in day?

The snow finally stopped falling in the late afternoon. Look how deep it got!
I baked a carrot cake cheesecake combination. Can't wait to taste it! I'm also making some potato soup. While preparing the soup, my doorbell rang. It was my little neighbor. She announced to my husband that her boots came off and her socks were all wet, so he popped them in our clothes dryer and she joined me in the kitchen. Her jacket was the same color green as my new nail polish, so naturally, I offered to paint her finger and toe nails. And naturally, she accepted my offer. What fun! Last night, I'd painted mine and got fancy with some addition of a dark purple squiggle. What to do when it's snowed in time? Amuse yourself!

Pickles and toes.

Two disparate images, eh? This is the jar of pickles that we bought at the fair last Sunday. It's one of those big canning jars so we're glad that we like the pickles. Lots of pickles.

On Tuesday, I walked around the nieghborhood with Smitty ...paying my bill at the dentist, stopping in at the frame shop to see Jude's new glass work, checking in at Red, one of the many hair cutting shops on Robinson St, to see if they did pedicures. I had in mind to pamper my feet. My last pedicure was for my birthday last July, and the blue polish had held up really well. However, I needed pampering and a change of color. Red didn't do nails but they referred me to the Hair Theater further down the street. Yes, they did nails, and yes, I could get an appointment for Wednesday. Smitty got lots of attention at the dentist's office and the hair places. He enjoyed the petting and the oohs and ahs. He's a very cute dog. And don't my toes looks cute? The violet polish is so perfect for the fall.
