Red was doubly appropriate for yesterday, since it was both Valentine’s Day and Chinese New Year. It still seemed appropriate this morning, as there was a trip to Target (big red T) to spend some of the red envelope money.
We have a white afternoon, though. The snow has started to fall yet again. It seems [...]

Red and White
Snowstorm Menu
If you have power (which some people round here don’t) on such a cold snowy day, you might as well use it to cook. We made soup and bread.
I made Fast French Bread using Mark Bittman’s recipe. I found it in How to Cook Everything, so did Heather, a fellow blogger who was kind enough [...]
Whiteout Wednesday
You know it’s bad when “snow forces snow plows, utility repair crews off the road.” But, as the Washington Post reports, that’s exactly what’s happened in DC and in MoCo.
Speaking of our own county, sweet home, Montgomery schools are closed for the whole week. That means that schools will have been closed since just after [...]

It’s getting harder to deny that we brought the Massachusetts weather down to Maryland. But the snowstorm that finished last night is bigger than I encountered in all the years I lived in Massachusetts. And Silver Spring didn’t even get the very worst of it.
Whenever it has snowed this winter – and it’s snowed a [...]

That said, I continue to like the county. Max and I went [...]
Slipping Down to the Building Museum
We braved the slippery conditions, and the fellow road users who can’t drive in snow, to pay our second visit to the building museum.
One of the things that impresses me is the space, and the use of it. It’s not just that the museum itself is huge, but that a lot of that space is [...]
Not in Boston Any More
I don’t remember any libraries with Thai restaurants sort of embedded in them in Boston. Certainly not in Roslindale or West Roxbury, anyway…
Am I Still in New England?
Ben, Jerry, snow… I didn’t have to move to find this sort of scene.
This is a good example of a bad snapshot. You have to take my word that it’s a B&Js, so the impact is lost. I leave it here as a warning to [...]
Snow Again
Again, autoposted from Evernote and edited the following day.
White winter in silver spring continues. Yesterday brought about two inches of snow, and school opening delayed by two hours.
