033: snow day

Since yesterday, the news was reporting the severity of the impending snow blizzard that would be hitting the Greater Toronto Area. 20-30 centimeters (or about 8 to 12 inches), and winds of about 50-70km/h ! From my facebook news feed, I was seeing that a lot of schools were already declaring snow days, even before the snow had begun falling. & this morning, my feed was flooded with word that most people had no school or weren't going to be going in to work! Did you get hit with the storm? Did you take the day off? What did you do?

We are still in the midst of preparations for the Chinese New Year, so we ended up doing some more 'baking', which I'll post some photos of tomorrow! And I wanted to give a quick thank you to Mai for identifying our last batch of Chinese New Year treats as "rosettes"!

We went outside and took some photos in the middle of the 'storm', which ended up being quite pretty... but I don't know how long the novelty will last, as it's preventing us from transitioning into our spring wardrobes :(

the snow was just fluff (not packing snow) so we couldn't make any snowballs or snow men :( but at least it's easier to shovel when it's not so wet!

Well, enjoy the weather, wherever you are! & stay safe in the snow-- don't rush when you're driving anywhere!
