A Bundle of Myrrh

I made Tomato Basil soup! It’s not Brenda’s, but was delish I must say!

That’s all.

What a difference a day makes. After yesterday teased us with “spring” we woke up to this. I’ve never seen snowflakes as big as those that fell this morning! So it’s farewell again to streets, rooftops, sidewalks and beautiful brown grass. Till we meet again….in another month or two…or maybe tomorrow?

>Sunny Sunday.

Sunday was beautiful! We hit 40 degrees and have started to see grass! Grass! Most of it’s brown, but I didn’t care. We could actually see the ground after 3 months of snow and ice!

In case you missed it…GRASS!

This is where all the snow in the village streets goes to die. It’s on the edge of town. We made the treacherous trek through the slush to get a closer look.

Our boldness paid off. We saw a car adapter poking out of the mass of mess! Phil thinks it will work. At least it will give him something to tinker with.

Friday night we got fancy! It was a balmy 30 degrees, which means one thing in Bancroft, time to light up the grill! Phil threw some steaks on and I made a pasta with a white wine sauce. We felt mighty fine and a little under dressed for our own supper.

This is what I had for dessert! You sure can fix up a box mix brownie with a bit of ice cream, some chocolate syrup and a cup of decaf! Yum!

Here’s the pasta I made the night before but with chicken. My new favorite thing is cooking with wine. I can’t drink it (or too much of it!) but I love to smell it simmering in a pan with some butter and garlic.
