Anticlimactic
Jan. 7th, 2024 07:47 pmWe got five inches of snow, most of it during the day today with little to no wind. The wind was all overnight before the snow started. It was nice and pretty today with it all falling. Didn't need any of the snow day prep.
I had to walk paths in the snow for Mara since she didn't seem to like walking around in the snow as is. Now she seems happy with the paths and has been making loops.
I made a buch de noel kinda, I used the cake recipe and then whipped a lot of cream and put it in. Only thing I would change is adding some melted chocolate for more chocolate. It is an enormous cake, fills most of a 9x13 pan.
I went for snowy walk in the afternoon which was lovely and I thoroughly enjoyed.
Then finally I did do some snow clearing, I was originally going to wait but decided to just get some done tonight, so there'd be less to do tomorrow morning. My snowblower is as cranky as ever but good at snowblowing so it's good. I think if it ever dies, I'll invest in a nice snowblower. Maybe in the spring I'll take it to be serviced somewhere, it needs new hoses on the gas line, they're leaky as hell but it still runs so good enough. It also has no air in one tire and I couldn't find the air compressor attachments in a quick look around, but the snowblower works fine without the air for the most part. It just tugs slightly sideways as we go, but not enough that it matters. I'll go looking again in the morning when I get a chance.
