I finished shoveling, the ducks are tucked away in the bathroom, and everyone else is snuggled down with blankets. It’s NEGATIVE 15 F outside. No wind now, but I guess the wind chill took us down to -55 earlier. We may get up to a whopping 5 degrees by two-ish. Not our normal weather, that’s …

Open Thread: I Hear We Used To Have Recipes
