Hello Debra,

Fantastic snowflake picture!

Omelettes are a rare treat in Hong Kong what with plastic in our food and very little trust in the security of our food supply chain. Just because the packaging says one thing doesn’t mean that our eggs conform. So I am jealous of your eggs.

Cheers,
Chris

“There is a sweet silence about days like this, and the white that blankets the earth muffles sound. Sounds come from and disappear into silence. I like it like that.”

Me too. It’s incredible how much the quality of sound changes when everything is under a covering of snow.

If only we lived closer! We’re just digging out from the tail end of that storm here in Boston, but just six inches, mercifully quite light and fluffy.

Ah, yes, Eryl, cheesecake………vanilla cheesecake.

I’m so glad to know you, Travis. The package was to be mailed but we’re snowed in, so Monday it will be!

Well rudeek, we did have eggs—a crustless quiche actually. Gouda would have been heavenly.

It’s pretty amazing, isn’t it, Larramie. And I am also glad you got the mug and saucer from Cups of Kindness.

Don’t quite know what happened there, Laura. Pretty strange stuff.

I’d gladly send you an omelet, Mary. We’ve had roosters, too, and ours never did learn that they were supposed to crow when the sun came up

Yes, please — I’d love an omelet! I wish we had hens; our neighbors here have a rooster who thinks that three in the morning is time to crow.

Hey Debra — When I open your link, there is no text here — just the picture of snowflakes. I would have thought that you just posted the pic, but commenters are on about eggs? Chickens? Omelets?

All I see are snow flakes!

It’s amazingly beautiful with very little wind which makes the temperature “comfortable.” And, in addition to that quiet beauty, I’m happy…got the Mug and Saucer!

We’ve had nonstop snow since last night too but it’s very fine. We only have half a foot, but I agree, there is something so peaceful about this. If I had those eggs, I’d make an omelet with some gouda cheese. MMMMmmm. I’m hungry now.

Hi Debra. I just wanted to stop by and say thank you for all you’ve done for me and my family. This trying time has been made much easier by all the support we’ve received from caring souls such as yourself.

You could make a massive cheesecake with all those eggs Debra!
