Saturday - November 23

Very cold, windy, snow flurries and downright blustery outside today!    Poor Daisy,,...tonight will be the coldest temps she's ever been in.....9 degrees overnight with a wind chill of -2.      Mark exercised and after breakfast we  finished the loading up, presents and all in Daisy and Toad.  Bikes are attached and now have a few more days to add any last-minute stuff!
 
I wrapped a few more gifts and finally caught up; also made two cheese balls.   Got the beds cleaned off upstairs with our summer clothes we're taking.   Making room for our 3 guests Monday night (Michael, Liam and Connor)
 
Mark ran some errands, Patrick brought the boys over at 12:30 and then we set to work in the kitchen.    We made rice krispie treats, chocolate cherry bars and pretzel/rollo treats topped off with M and M's,
 
Grandma's little helpers - aprons and all
 
Anne worked today and came for supper (Patrick is at a big gig in Chicago tonight).    Grandma is tried bur very happy with all we accomplished.
 
Our town has really come together and gone all out to help the residents of Washington and other tornado-damaged communities.    The outpouring of food, clothing and other essentials has been incredible and ongoing!!!
