Mid-Atlantic DUers and surrounding area - ready for the BIG SNOW!!!

I have enough Beer to get me through about a week of being trapped inside. I have all my iDevices charged up too so I can blast the music at home.



What's your agenda to prep for the big storm coming Friday afternoon.

I'm going to have a low-carb freezer-friendly cookfest (smokey chicken/kale/white bean stew, chili, turkey teriyaki meatballs, and fajitas)! One recipe for each night from Friday to Monday (you know, just in case they close the Univ. on Monday - wishful thinking). I'm doing a double batch of each and will freeze all the leftovers in individual portions for lunches.

It helps the snow slide off instead of sticking.

My favorite way to spend snowdays was to make a pot of chicken soup and sit by the window watching the birds while I enjoyed my hot soup. I even enjoy shoveling show. It was such a contrast to all the stress at work. My pleasures are simple.

Everything battened down and all friends staying in town.
