Jan 12th and our first winter storm hits the South Shore of Nova Scotia. Gini and I played in the snow.
.
Jan 13th was a day off school for the girls, but I still had to work. After a dinner of delicious, tummy-warming, hot 'n' spicy African Peanut Soup, Gini and Carolina played outside.
Notice how without adult supervision, they made a naughty snow-woman!

I stayed inside watching Coronation Street and making Mexican "Abuelita" hot chocolate: dense, heavy, hockey-puck shaped and cinnamon & sugar infused blocks of chocolate that you pop in a pan of milk and slowly melt and heat. So delicious!
Gini does a great impression of Abuelita (Granny).

..... and unlike their behavior since Xmas holidays, hopefully they'll go to bed at a decent hour!.
Oh my! Those little international students!
.They've become so much fun!

Your first snow storm of the year? The rest of Canada is buried 3 feet deep and you've just had your first snow? Wow, you South Shore Nova Scotians must be God's favourites or something!
That's crazy you haven't had snow til now. The weather around the world is sure topsy turvey isn't it! Looks like you made the most of it though with those fun gals! I love that kind of hot chocolate. A friend of mine brought some over from arizona a few years back and it was a real treat! xxoo
Yes Debra! We South Shore Nova Scotians ARE God's favorites!
All other parts of the province -- the Valley, Yarmouth area, Halifax, Cape Breton, etc have lots of snow. We've had rain until this week. What strange weather!
It is wonderful how much young people enjoy winter. I'm like you staying inside making the hot chocolate. A touch of cinnamon does sound like a good thing to add to it too. We've had our share of storms already and the forecast is calling for more snow tomorrow.
What a fun little group of two you have there! I love how much THEY love the snow...I think that is a naughty snowWOMAN...lol Hugs- Diana
We hosted a foreign exchange student twice. The first time was a good experience, the second was not so good.
Love the naughty snowman!!!
Happy to see that you were busy at the stove while the girls were making their snow woman! I'll send more snow your way when yours starts to melt...
Hey, fellow Coronation St watcher!!
And I love the snow woman as well!
