Recipe


Snow Day Recipe:

1. ignore 12 loads of laundry while wearing as a little as possible
2. consider grading some papers to get caught up-and never think of it again
3. put on a pot of coffee that stays on the entire day
4. cell phone in the pocket for random snow giddiness texting
5. get on the couch with a trashy novel knowing you have two more lined up behind it
6. any kid who knocks on the door can come in-no questions asked
7. allow kids to wear anything they want in the snow without making a single suggestion or fussing about all the wet clothes that pile up in the hallway after 9 trips in and out (it's not like you're gonna do laundry anyway...)
8. top it all off with a celeb magazine that headlines a major break-up, a Bruce Willis movie, and a hot bubble bath

Voila!!! Best served chilled in front of the fireplace!

  1. I agree with all but #6. Stay out of my house!!! You're a good mom to let the neighborhood in. I would lose my mind!

  2. #7....Sarah came out yesterday afternoon (ready to go visit her Grandma) in t-shirt and jeans. She might as well have added some flip flops. I didn't say too much though because I am also in snow-day-out, relaxed, don't care mode. :)
