It is honestly comical how an entire model sweet can take away two threats within 6 days and then bring them back basically a model suite later. Not often we lose 2 threats or gain them like that. 

yeah being on this model yo-yo is really fun. 

 

I'm just hoping my poor kid can see some snow. He's at the perfect age (elementary school). I remember some shitty winters (97-98) when I was a kid in PA and it was the worst to not get to play in the snow in the winter.

My childhood wouldn't be the same without '09-'10. Probably the reason I'm on this forum right now.

Yep, ditto.  '93, '96, '03 were all childhood/teenage storms for me and where I was in Harrisburg PA got hammered by all of them. I was in college in central PA for 09'10 and we got obliterated there. Feast or famine in the mid-atlantic!

My biggest drive towards seeing/enjoying snow is mainly for my German Shepherd. He's nearing old age at around 12, and I can't stress it enough when I say that he absolutely loves snow. He must know that I'm into it too because he's pretty keen to when it's snowing, and trying to get me outside to join him. My fondest memory of that is the Blizzard of 2016 (happy 5th year anniversary to that!!). He experienced 09/10, but I was too young to remember a single thing from that winter (sorry for making PSU and others feel old, again :/). But here's a pic from that winter of me, my brother, and my German Shepherd Gus. Great times.

Made some deep dish pizza on Monday night.....It was really good.  

Next time I'll get a pic. 

NIce! And yes would love to see others creations. :D

I am going to have to start altering my cooking/baking. Getting tested for a dairy allergy. Broke out in hives 4 times last week. Have removed all ideas of what could cause it and did dairy last. Had cream cheese on Wed on seed crackers and broke out again 30 min after eating. Have to be off dairy for the next 3-4 weeks then test again. Already looking into alternatives.

Hope this time next week, you've got a foot of fresh powder on the ground and Gus is having a blast.

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
 
In restless dreams I looked at weather models alone
Upon narrow monitors of plastic and chrome
'Neath the halo of a desktop lamp
I turned my eyes to the virtual maps
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of snow hole so bright
It split the night
And touched the sound of silence
 
And in the naked light, I saw
Ten thousand snow weenies, maybe more
People  screaming endlessly
People lurking w/ ensemble maps of doom
People writing prayers about memories of something once called snow
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
 
"Fools", said I, "You do not know
Hope for snow like a cancer grows"
Hear PSU's words that he might teach you
See Weather Will's maps of doom that he might reach you
But my words, like silent 34 degree raindrops fell
And echoed
In the wells of silence
 
And the people bowed and prayed
To the snowiest models that might have been made
But those models flashed out their warning
In the words that they were forming
And the model output  said, "The place for snow is ever 200 miles south or north
And not in DMV halls"

And whispered in the sound of silence

I saw Disturbed a few years back, when we could still go to concerts, and they sang their cover of this song. I would have enjoyed it a lot more had they included the lines about snow weenies and weather models.

I'm so sorry to hear that!  I have a co-worker who uses a lot of vegan cheeses.  Do you think they might be an alternate to normal cheese?
