Guess Soup is on the Menu - BBQing is not!

My back porch is covered, so BBQing year-round is a possibility, rain, hail, snow, etc.   BUT, today I did shovel once and the wind blew snow back on the porch, so guess it will be a soup day!

 

I really prefer someone else shovel for me, and so glad I live in a community where the HOA does it for you!  I know, Barbara Todaro would say - it is good exercise!

You know there is a lot of snow when they bring the heavy equipment to do the streets and some driveways!  

I had some packets of hot cocoa, and they loved it.

 

The lights have flickered several times today, but so far, the electricity has not gone out.

I have never had to shovel snow and I hope that I never will, haha.  I don't feel like I am missing out on anything.

I'm glad you have help with the shoveling, and your power remained on. Those are important things to make snow days better!

My boy told me his mother said Highlands Ranch had 26 inches. All I can say is thank GOD I live in Florida. I am sitting on my back patio and it is 73 degrees  :):):):):):):):)

Bob, thinking we got 2 feet, as my patio set it covered.

Andrea, March in Denver is usually the snowiest month, and is living up to that stat!  We can still get snow in May!

Doug, pretty sure we got at least 2 feet, maybe more, but hard to tell.  The wind was blowing so hard, have drifts everywhere.

Georgie, that is funny, but could happen at my house.  I did make potato soup.

Michael, we had a few days warning, and made it to the store before everything was gone.

Nina, I was a bit nervous about losing power, as there were some across town, and especially in Ft. Collins, but never did here, thankfully.

Roy, I did shovel my back porch, as the HOA doesn't do that, but did no good, the wind was vicious.

Brian, it probably is good exercise, but I would prefer to watch these days.

Kat, many did lose power, but most came back on by nightfall.

Jeff, not sure about the final amount here, but the snow is over the stop of the patio table.

Good morning Joan. Funny how tiny little weightless flakes of snow congregate and become tons of mass.

Rocky, boy, it sure did yesterday!   Did not see much snow until after dark Saturday, and two feet appeared by bedtime last night!

Dear Joan,

At a mile high, do you not have to wait until May to break out the barbeque? Soup is good. So many delicious versions of it.

Dorte, I agree, you can be creative with soup, but do prefer to grill over cooking.
