Snowflakes in my Cereal

Again? Seriously, I know we Minnesotans are hearty folk, but this is ridiculous. Green leaves peeking through snowdrifts. Um, not normal.

I love the fall colors. If we get a fall that's simply green leaves freezing off the trees, I'll be so sad.

We're supposed to get more snow as the week goes on. I think I've already got Cabin Fever.

Snowflakes in my Coffee


Snuggling in for a morning nap.


A peek of what's soon to come.


Yes, that's in Fahrenheit!



Warm and hearty breakfast helps to face a cold day!



Now THIS is what people think of when they picture my beloved home state, Minnesota.

Actually, it's really quite rare to have snow this early in the year. I'll take it. It was a lovely scene to wake up to and is rapidly melting in the mid morning sun as I type.

Brisk mornings like this get me thinking of Scottish Oats and piping hot Kona coffee. Yum.

Happy First Snow


We woke to the first, appreciable snow this morning! I believe that's the technical term according to my weather guy. What it looks like outside my window (and only will for a few more hours, it's all melting fast!) is a fairy land.


I love the change of seasons.


Out came the snowboots and even though this will all melt, shoveling had to happen at the bus stop. And snowballs and snowball fights!


Love it.


Happy First Snow!


And wherever you are, I hope your day is just as magical.

Taking a little time to play with words, to play with food, and just to play!
