Your mid-day snow report

Michael Bradford ventures outside and has the photos to prove it.

JL settles in:

I know, I know: you heard the words "major snowstorm" and immediately thought "time for a pork roast", right? Me too! So we've got one 7 lb. pork shoulder, trimmed (but not too closely), with criss-cross slices into the meat and a generous slathering of garlic, herb and olive oil paste all over. It's been wrapped up that way since yesterday afternoon, waiting to go into the oven around 1. I'd put it in a little sooner - I like an early Sunday dinner - but the oatmeal brown sugar-honey bread won't be out of the oven until then. ...

Susan Senator is not amused:

... The wintry weather, which I hate, has inspired a blank, cold breeze blowing around in my head. I've run out of things to do with myself, I feel stuck indoors and stuck in time. ...

Susan, meet Krissy (or maybe not):

Nothing excites me more than a major snowstorm. It reminds me of when I was a kid - I'd sleep with my pajamas inside out (which supposedly brings snow), wake up, and listen to the radio to hear school was cancelled - then we'd drink hot chocolate and eat apple cinnamon Cream of Wheat. ...

Steve Garfield reports and offers photographic proof that salt melts snow:

The Boston Public Works Department put down some salt on the street in the middle of the night.

Looks like is was working. Now it's totally covered, white and blowing around.

Blahdiblogger gets comfy:

... Fortunately, we have nowhere to go and don't have to shovel it, so Bill is making us eggs, hash browns, and fresh squeezed o.j. (best boyfriend ever!) and I'm just lazing around on my robe, watching the cars on our block get towed.

Jo posts before and after photos of her backyard. Janet posts before and after photos of her front porch and driveway.

Leslie tries to stay optimistic:

... I don't so much mind being snowed in, but I'm really hoping I don't lose electricity. And my back is not at all looking forward to all the shoveling. ...
