Just off the phone with my sister. She lives in the in the hudson Valley. They are not really gonna get hit. (YAY for the VAlley! )
Here I am -- with fellow DU's, prepping for a mess of a snow storm.. Rain turning to frozen rain and then snow.
Because of the rain, they could not pretreat the roads.
Hubby will be working from home tomorrow.
IF I still lived in the Valley I would say it just the way things are... But I live in Alexandria, Virginia. MArch, Snow. HArumph.
We are having Caphrinia's, plantains and jerk chicken tonight.
Stay safe my friends!
