This snow storm blew through yesterday...
and blew through it did! The snow fell for two, maybe three hours then ended and melted right away. That pretty much describes snow storms here in North Carolina. These back country roads were white with snow...it was beginning to look serious here for a short while!
Why, there was hardly time to get the corn popped and the fudge made before the snow was out of here.
Snow always makes me think about mama. Anytime it snowed, she was the first to pick up the phone and call everybody. I can hear her now saying, "Melba, is it snowing there?" Mama loved to stand at a window, watching the snow fall and worrying. Among other things, she worried about the little birds getting enough to eat when the ground was covered with snow. Many a time, mama baked pans of cornbread to crumble up for the birds.
Now, this morning, not even a trace of snow. The sun is shining, and it's very cold and windy. The tops of these tall trees are swaying back and forth!
A good day to keep busy inside...
or curl up somewhere and sleep.
I'm getting busy now. I've simply got to! Hopefully I will be back soon with something interesting. :)
Love,
Henny
