Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day to all of our friends and family! Hopefully all is well and you are enjoying your day. Jason and I had lunch at a Chinese buffet, then went to Borders to buy some books for my gift. Jason received Hancock on blu-ray, a box of chocolates, and a six pack of his favorite beer. Of course he got all of his earlier in the week since he was sick. We also rented Ice Age:3 and watched that this afternoon. It's been a very pleasant day.

My trip to Bethany's was very fun. Her house is very cute, her animals are very nice, and she gave me some samples of her domesticity. Her place has a small orchard and she is planning on having a fairly large garden and growing her own herbs. I told her if she needed any help, I'd be more than happy to take some of her produce off her hands! I'll just have to settle for the preserves she sent home instead.

Cooking Fool

This morning I baked some bread, cut up apples to dehydrate, bake some chicken breasts for lunch, made an apple pie, and cooked fried cabbage. And it's not even 1:30! After Jason and I have lunch, I'm going to visit my friend Bethany. Bethany and I usually quilt, or at least try to quilt. Normally we just gab the whole time while we try to focus on quilting.

After visiting Bethany, I'm hoping to have a quiet night at home. I do have some other things I would like to get done, but we'll have to see how things go. It's supposed to snow again tonight. Who knows, maybe Jason and I will be snowed in for the rest of the weekend!

Snow

Jason made me a chocolate cake for helping put his computer desk together. He made it all by himself, by scratch. It was absolutely delicious!

I also bought Zara a new toy. It's a fabric cube with holes on three sides and some strings to play with on the inside. She likes to hide in it and has even moved it while she's in it to "sneak up" on us. Of course whenever I try to get some video, she walks away from it.

This last weekend, Jason and I went to Independence to game. We had a very good time and a lot of laughs. Of course, on our ride home, it snowed. The whole way. And it didn't stop. At all. It's still snowing. And it isn't supposed to stop until Wednesday. Night. We've already gotten about a foot. I'm starting to get tired of snow. What I'm really tired of is having to scrap all of the snow off the car. I had blood drawn for some thyroid testing and I had to scrape the Pacifica after being at the clinic for ten minutes. Schools and businesses have already cancelled for tomorrow.
