Winter weather

New York is having another blizzard today. Blarg. I'm about ready for winter to be over, aren't you? To make things a little cozier, I'm thinking of making cauliflower soup and grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner. Plus, the women's figure skating finals are on tonight! Hope you guys are staying warm and cozy. xo

  5. I cannot deal with this anymore and have literally forgotten what sunshine feels like!

    ReplyDelete

  6. Seems like all they have here are blizzards. At least you guys are seeing the double digits. On the way to class this morning, I think it hit 4.

    But I'm making chili. And that grilled cheese sounds like a fantastic idea.

  7. aww, today was sunny and beautiful in Hungary, i even had to buy new shoes because the boots i was wearing were too hot!

    ReplyDelete

  8. Heels in the snow? That is crazy! I used to do it, but then I realized Uggs are so much easier to walk in.

    ReplyDelete

  9. ooh, chili, that's a good idea, too :)

    ReplyDelete

  10. Bundle up! That soup sounds lovely, I'm going to try it:-)

    Haha cauliflower soup, not cucumber! Cucumber is tooo summery. Looks good Joanna! Soup and grilled cheese is definitely a fave combo of mine!

    ReplyDelete

  12. Ah, me - I can never have enough snow. I am enjoying every minute!

    ReplyDelete

  13. I'd like a blizzard!! I'm dreading the approaching texas summer.

    ReplyDelete

  18. You need to get on flight to Portland, Oregon. It's already Spring here.

    ReplyDelete

  19. it's so white and snowy and beautiful, but it isn't amounting to anything but slush....sigh. sometimes i miss living in the country. although, this snow always seems to come when i have somewhere to go. all i want to do is hole up inside all day and night, eat warm foods, and watch movies.

    ReplyDelete

  20. Gosh. I am so sorry. It has been "cold" here too -- highs of 40s and 50s. The average high here (I'm in Houston) in February is in the mid60s, so it's definitely a lot cooler than it should be. I really shouldn't be complaining though, because compared to your situation I'm quite lucky. :/

  21. Stay warm! This will be a good story to tell the baby someday...the year of all those NYC blizzards! xoxo

    ReplyDelete

  22. Sick of it? Sick of it? Shriek. True, I'm in DC & the expected snow passed us by...we did receive two blows earlier this month, the evidence of which still remains in disgusting humps & walls of grime.

    But the winds are picking up & we're expecting 50 mile/hour gusts. Damn. I just returned from spending yet more $ I don't have on D batteries for the new camping lantern I bought (see above); powering up the radio, new flashlight with asst'd. batteries. Eating dinner NOW. Heating up soup for later, in case. Bleep. Sorry, Joanna. Anyway, I hope the power stays on so I can see the finals. Mine was out for 8.5 freaking days And in case anyone says, "Well you know other people in the world..." Yes I know. I was one of those people. When the power out = no heat...the winter looks a lot different.

    Wish I could come to dinner. But the train will probably stop as well. You're safe.:)

  36. I'm in Upstate and received 2 feet yesterday and another 2 feet today/tonight. But, if you decide you want to live here, you've got to be ready for the crazy weather we get (generally, if you don't like the weather here, wait 5 minutes and it will change)

    ReplyDelete

  37. Hi Joanna. So funny you posted about the snow. I just posted this morning about all the rain we are getting in Maine. We are expecting 25 foot waves and coastal flooding. Wearing bright colors, drinking tea, eating cookies and splashing about in puddles with my dog while wearing my rock 'n Muddruckers. Enjoy the snow, we wish we had some here in Maine!! xo

    ReplyDelete

  38. I'm soo excited for women's figure skating tonight!! And your dinner sounds delicioso! I can't believe the east coast is getting hit harder than us out in Wisconsin this year -- insane. Almost all my college friends live in NYC now and they are def complaining about the weather. Hope it clears up for you guys soon!

    ReplyDelete

  43. At this point, I'm willing to give my left pinkie toe for this snow to be over. Okay, maybe not that bad, but you get the idea. Warm soup and the boob tube sound amazing, and EXACTLY what I plan on doing!

    ReplyDelete

  77. You know, I'm so tiried of winter too. Where I live there is this a bit melted snow everywhere. And I want so mauch to go out with beautiful high heel shoes. But it's imposible now, because I probably would just break my neck.

    ReplyDelete

  78. jo - i can't even tell you how odd it is to read this post as a former New Yorker. everyone has asked me about how brutal my winter in Maine has been - but all we have is rain!!!! i haven't seen snow here since December!

    ReplyDelete
