Which state IS that? Wisconsin? Michigan? No, I think it's New York
which is FREEZING this week. We have entered the deep freeze! And I know
it IS possible to cook meat here. Did it last night and this afternoon,
even in a house that is only 61 degrees! Brrr!

Winter here is coming to an end. :-(
It was 70 yesterday and too warm last night to wear my new jacket.

I'm having to run the damned AC already.

The AC? for 70? Do you live the cold that much or does all that cookin'
heat up your house. I find that the colder the day the more cooking and
baking I do and it really helps warm up our outsides and insides.

I was complaining about the weather here in Rochester until I heard the
forecast for Oswego yesterday or the day befo 7 to 12 inches expected per
*HOUR*. Even so, there are dollar bills flying out my chimney.

Talked to someone in Oswego that has over 6 feet of the white stuff
with very windy conditions. Wind is the worst! We're just above PA by
Binghamton and only started getting some cold weather the last 2 weeks.
Before that no snow and even some 56 degree days in early Jan! I guess
we should be happy that the really cold temps didn't start early like in
OCt or Nov and now it's Feb and only a couple of months before the
spring gets going.

Binghamton! Famous for Main Street, which has an endless procession of the
living dead, in cars going never more than 11.37 mph. I've never seen
anything like it in my life.

LOL!!! I was thinking more of Spiedies myself. Had a chicken spiedie
pizza last week. Never dreamed I'd ever LIKE something that strange but
it worked! I loved it! And to think they told me before we moved out
here that Binghamton was an eatery wasteland. LOL!!!
