I was thinking of the fickleness of April this morning, as I contemplated my coat hooks - rain jacket, down coat, heavy vest, hoodie. I use them all in a week, so can never put anything away! Let's hope this last spell gets winter on its way somewhere else.

It was considered rural too and no big box stores and certainly nothing more exotic than Chinese restaurants. We too enjoyed a trip to the big city every now and then, which in our case was a 90 minute drive. And, now we only have a short walk to a downtown area with a choice of foods. We also had snow here in Nashua, NH, this week. Yesterday afternoon it looked like a blizzard was raging, but by evening there was no accumulation.Beatrice P.

Do you suppose it's because our times of doing so are so infrequent?<br /><br />So glad you didn't REALLY get hit with the brunt of the snowstorm while you were driving home. (Well, I guess you did to a great enough extent driving home from work the next day.) Anywho, glad both trips turned out okay.<br /><br />It's just strange the way parts of your country and ours are getting heavy snows this late in the winter. We haven't had any in quite a while but hubby told me this morning they are forecasting heavy snow for weekend after this one. Personally, I don't know how they can accurately predict such a thing so far in advance. (And I do hope they're wrong. I love the snow but this time of the year . . . enough already.)<br /><br />Today the wind gusts up to 40 mph are making it cold enough. Temp is only around 20F.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372726504543914139.post-41780062267395337002018-04-06T12:49:47.050-04:002018-04-06T12:49:47.050-04:00We got the wet, not so much snow.

I was thankful Tuesday night that I had a short drive from work to home, Wednesday I spent the day chasing things flying about the yard so as not to break a window - now to find the rightful owners. Glad you had a good dinner out, it's nice to have such a treat. Our little village has a new diner that is trying chicken wings, although you have to pre-order. For anything other than pizza we to have to venture into the "big" city closest to us. ...

There must be something "going on" with the world - our forecast for this week is all temperatures in the high 20's C, even topping out at 30 next Monday! This is warmer than some summers we've had in the past.<br /><br />Love Indian food. If you can get your hands on the ingredients, it's not hard to make some of the dishes at home. I have some Indian recipes on rotation, even though we are spoilt for choice for International Cuisine in this neck of the woods.<br /><br />Pipistrellohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07904613196101010022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372726504543914139.post-58104807475666492882018-04-05T20:05:52.511-04:002018-04-05T20:05:52.511-04:00No snow here on Vancouver Island but it’s Ben rain...No snow here on Vancouver Island but it’s Ben raining since late September.
