When the Snow That Starts Falling is the Size of Corn Flakes
I think about all the milk being sold at the grocery store so that the kids who won’t have school tomorrow can eat cereal in the morning. And that’s what you’d get if you let a poet report the weather.

oh, I hear that one. Write a deep heartfelt poem with rain as the metaphor and two people will say, immediately, “gosh it’s been dry this summer, glad it’s raining now.”.

That’s the kind of snow we had yesterday for a short time so that by the time I went out, all traces were gone. Then this morning I woke to the ground covered with snow- with slick roads underneath the blanket of snow. …so glad no one else was on the street as I slid around the corner!

Must be a child’s favourite day of the school year, a snow day.

This made me smile. Oh, I remember snow days when I lived in Missouri. Not much of the fluffy stuff in Houston.

Pretty. I felt cheated last week when they initially promised us a foot, and all we got was three inches. My WW
