Morning Michelle,
Are you all stocked up already? The stores are going to be a madhouse today.
It's not coming this far south. The boys are bitterly disappointed.
Love,
Gina

I can't wait. We have had no snow in Ct. I'm gonna have to see it to believe it. My kids love going out in the snow. Every year I wait to long to get my kids snow pants and they are always sold out. This year the stores are still stocked with them. Oops maybe I spoke to soon because watch they will probably be sold out today. Shantel
s***! Now I have to go battles the crazies at the grocery store, before they clear the shelves! Any predictions of how many inches of snow? The last Valentine's Day blizzard left me with about 3 1/2 feet.
Did I mention of live on top of a huge hill? And, that although my rear-wheel drive car has some sort of super-power for climbing hills, but acts as a sled without steering going down hill?
Oh, and can anyone advise WTH you do with tiny dogs in huge amounts of snow? Poor little guy was up to his neck with just a 5 inch snowfall, and I actually shoveled the yard!

Good morning Gina, Shantel!
I'm about as stocked as I'm going to get. If all else fails, I got two pet bunnies and three guinea pigs that would do in a pinch. LOL
Plenty of extra newspaper too. LOL
opps didn't see you there Atlas, good morning! They are not saying how much as of yet. The Weather Channel lies anyway, so its hard to be sure.

LMAO Michelle, You leave those pets alone. Don't think I can eat my Golden if I am in a pinch I would have to try and bypass the computer chip in her neck. I have heard rabbit meat or stew is good though. Shantel
Atlas,
I thought you had a great huge dog. Can the little ones use litter boxes for the duration?
Morning Shantell! Leave that Golden alone. There's always your husband. A lot of good eatin' there, LOL.
Michelle, Newspaper, lmao. The important thing... The IMPORTANT thing is that you not lose internet connectivity during the storm.
xoxo
Gina
In case it comes to that:
Fried Guinea Pig (Ayacucho-style)
CUY CHAQTADO
1 guinea pig, de-haired, gutted, and cleaned
1/2 c. flour
1/4 - 1/2 t. ground cumin
salt and black pepper to taste
1/2 c. oil
Pat dry the skin of the guinea pig and rub in the cumin, salt, and pepper. Preheat oil. Dust the carcass with the flour and place it on its back in the oil, turning to cook both sides. Alternately, the guinea pig can be cut and fried in quarters.
Serve with boiled potato or boiled manioc root, and a salad of cut tomatoes and slivered onions bathed in lime juice and a bit of salt.

If I lose internet, its going to get real ugly, real fast in my house. LOL
I have my fingrers crossed (and my legs LOL), that we don't lose power.
Shantel, in a survival situation, all pets are fair game.
Michelle
Gina, that actually looks pretty good. Printing the recipe now.

Morning Gina, Gotta ask what brand of sunglasses those are in your pic. I have a fetish for sunglasses. Shantel
Michelle, You could always run out and buy a generator. We have a small one here in case of emergencys and losing the internet would be classified an emergency. Shantel
LOL @ Gina.
I have one huge dog and one Yorkie. If we get enough snow to create a problem for the big dog, we are all screwed. On his hind legs, he is a full head taller than me. On all fours, he can grab food from the counter top without having to stretch.
I have 2 cats. One is quite fat, and has been very confused about where the litter box is. She will be the first to go. LOL Unless I can get my hands on my neighbor's dog.
I don't think my Yorkie would use a litter box.

but Shantel that would be so not like me to actually go out and get something before I need it.
I'm with you Atlas, hunt house cats, save the dogs.

Shantell,
That photo's cut down from the Matrix Reloaded poster. I would bet you could order replicas online. I liked it because you can see a car wreck reflected in the lenses.
It reminds me of some nights here on the board when you know you should but you... just... can't... look... away. LOL
Michelle,
If there's any chance you might lose power, get the generator -- she's right. That's an emergency.

Gina, I just saw that pic. Why do I waste my time buying a newspaper for the funnies when I have you every morning to entertain me. Putting my money away right now. Shantel
Gina
I doubt we will lose power. All of the power and phone lines are now underground in my neck of the woods. We might lose pizza delivery service, but thats probably about it.

I gotta say I with Gina on this one. Leave the animals alone and go straight for the husband. LMAO. Shantel
Atlas,
If you shut him up in there long enough he will. LOL
When we lived in Paris, the latest thing for apartment dwellers was an appliance that looked like a dishwasher, but it was a doggie loo. You open the front panel, the animal goes in, does his business, then you shut the door, press a button et Voila -- a thousand steaming jets of antibacterial detergent and water wash the whole mess away.
I'll see if they sell these online.

Michelle, If we were to lose Dominos delivery here I would have to admit my children into the nut house. Not a good thought. Shantel

Michelle, that is so sensible. I watched the power crew string cable DIAGONALLY back and forth across my street this fall. The first icestorm that hits, we'll have downed power lines every twenty yards.
yes Gina, but my kids will never know what its like to fly a kite into high voltage power lines. LOL
I'm off. I have to take the kids snow tubing down the side of a moutain today. I'm not looking forward to this. Sliding full speed down the side of a moutain with trees as your only backup before the interstate, ceased being fun when I was around 12. LOL
I'll look for you later. Have a good one!
