It's here! The first snowfall in the Twin Cities arrived this morning. This may be alarming to some, but living in downtown means not having to shovel. The obvious topic of moving to Florida is discussed briefly. We change the discussion to supplies. Have we have laid in supplies (food and beer) to get us through the weekend? We review the stock pile of chicken and chops in the freezer. Yes, I believe we will make it but a tomato would be nice. Perhaps I will join the others I see out my window blowing their way down the street and make my way to Eisenberg's Market for that tomato. Eisenberg's has been at the corner of Jackson and 10th Street since the 1930's and sells overstocks, near date and slightly damaged products. The vine ripe tomatoes are a product I know they always have in stock at a great price. The rest of the day, well, it is a perfect day to turn the music up (how many snow-themed songs will The Current 89.3 play today?), clean out the toaster crumbs, recycle the mail, make banana bread, and yes think about a winter vacation to somewhere warm.

I listened in as your son was deciding which time was the best to go visit you today. I kept hoping he'd choose to stay in and not go out in that mess. Now he's back, though, safe & sound. :)
