The Difference a Few Days can Make!

This is the same view (almost, because I wasn't willing to get snowed on to take the same picture) as the other day. Look one entry below. What a difference a few days can make! The news is reporting we could get yet another 10-12" tonight and even more tomorrow! Yay! Welcome Winter :)

Here's another view from the patio door looking out. I should try to snap one of Oz as he blends in except for the black spots! He is quite put out with the snow cold on his feet you know.

So I turned this stay inside kinda day into a baking day. :) This is the making of "End of the search Chocolate Chip Cookies" . I found the recipe on a blog I was reading and wanted to try. So far so good. The first batch was yummie. Apparently I will be here a while as the recipe makes 6 dozen :)

I must run and take some cookies off the pan and of course sample because I plan to gift a few tonight at a gathering to honour our Youth Pastors' last night. :)

Isn't Fall just the best? This is my view from the computer these days. I am sitting at the kitchen counter and looking outside. There are so many pretty colours out there and right in my eye line too! :) While walking today in the neighborhood doggie, hubbie and I crunched crunched and crunched in the many leaves littering the street. I probably shouldn't say littering the street as my first thought with litter is trash and I definately would not call crunchable leaves trash. I would call them cheap fun! :) Take a minute, or several, to crunch your way around the block it is good for the soul and usually makes me remember piling the leaves and jumping... ummm, I mean raking them and putting them out for lawn stuff pick-up.... yeah, that's what we were doing out there for hours on end as children...
