It certainly is here! We've had several days and more to come with
daytime highs in the minus 20s Celsius with windchills taking it down to
the -30s.
I'm staying in!

Ugh! That's awful.. I saw that big blob of really cold weather
dropping down out of Canada. Sorry about your temps. We only went
down to 12F.

I've watched the tv news with interest. Here we are at about 8K ft,
almost dead center in the CO Rockies, yet all I see is brown ground.

Snow? Remains of a 3 inch dusting a week ago. Mostly, jes windy.

I hope you all survive this horrible weather.

I will refrain (okay, no I won't!) it's 46F here in southern South
Carolina. It occurred to me the other day I might never see snow
again. Fine by me, even though snow *is* pretty.

I used to have to drive to work in icy conditions in Memphis. That was
no fun. I was chastised once for wearing jeans to work when the streets
were a sheet of ice. I looked around at all the empty desks and said to
her, "Really? You're going to criticize what I'm wearing? You're lucky
I showed up!" LOL

I like a simple spaghetti dish like that (you may have my anchovies).
Nice, warming, comfort food. I made chicken enchiladas from an old
Betty Crocker recipe.

Time to kick back with a book (or kindle or nook or whatever) and a
throw and relax.

I thought "what the hell" and worked on an Oil Sands project for one of
the majors this morning. Then I tried to turn a 15" salad bowl on my
lathe in the basement but with all the faults I discovered, I'll be
lucky if it's 10" in diameter:-(
Tonight I'll "chill out" with some nice pinot noir:-)

I'm going to make some Sun Miso ramen. It's made locally and the Sun factory supplies most of the noodles to the ramen shops in Hawaii. My guess is that the Sun factories in LA and New York supplies a lot of the noodles on the mainland. If you have eaten great ramen on the East and West coasts, you've probably eaten Sun Noodles.

The Sun ramen products includes some fresh ramen noodles and a package of sauce. The noodle are great but the real gold is the sauce packets. I could use it with a twenty cent package of dried ramen noodles and it would make me a very happy guy. The stuff comes from somewhere in Japan. Good show!

We've got a local place that makes their own ramen. I haven't been there,
but they're reputedly great.

My guess is that ramen noodles are simple to make but tough to get right. Sun noodle will work with the shop to make a custom product for their requirements. It's pretty amazing and it's why they're so successful.

It's ok here too though colder than normal for Norfolk area. A few 20s
in the middle of the night but not much. Last of the lettuce died as
you'd expect.

I just rescented the fence. My normally sighted dog doesn't need that
but the blind one gets lost now that the garden is dead, without that
(she triangulates on scent very well).

One of things I like about winter is the food.

Jes fer my own edification, what did you scent it with?

At first, I didn't understand what you meant. Now I get it.

Great idea. "Scent that damn fence!"

Gotta be so much better than an electric or one of those
RC collar boundry/fences .

Grin, the back part gets cedar (a 10% mix oil cedar oil and a
non-flammable). One side gets lavendar, the other gets frangipani.
The base of the house and shed get 'shakeaway' fox urine (totally safe
and the fox urine makes rodents avoid my yard).

The fence is lightly sprayed about 3ft up high and every 3ft. Thats
plenty for a super sniffer Beagle. By scenting the difference and how
close/far she is from it, she can orient in the yard with no problems.

In summer, growing plants handle it. Now that they are dying off,
she's still ok finding her way now but we start scenting the fence at
this time so she's used to it come snowfall.

Basically if she scents fox urine, she knows she's at the house or
gonna bonk her nose on the shed. If she smells any of the others, she
knows where she is based on how close it is or how close the other
scents are.

ABOSULTELY better than electric fences and such since all they would
tell her is 'oops, wrong way'. This tells her the right way.

Sunning today she could smell the back fence to her left, fox urine to
her right, and Lavendar to the front. She didnt have any trouble
finding the door in for treats.

She'll be 15 on 2 July2017.

Smile, oldest one I've had is problematic to date but as a rescue, the
organization listed her 'older than dirt'. 5 vets at my clinic
assessed her. The more experienced vets went with 18 when we got her.
The others accessed from 16-17. She lived a long golden summer of 2.5
years here before she passed of natural aging related causes.
