The ice and snow are slowly melting, but we still have a lot left. That is good news really, because if it had warmed as quickly as earlier predicted there would have been flooding. Thankfully, I don't live in a flood plain but plenty of folks do. Not only has the sun been out for two days, but also the flood warning has now been lifted!
I was worried that one of my dwarf trees was going to be ruined by the ice, but as luck would have it the ice melted from it's tiny branches and it has sprung back to shape with nary a mark. I hope my hedge has the same luck as it is still weighted down with some snow/ice.
We have many things to be thankful for, so I decided yesterday while I was out shopping that I would try to banish another winter's day from my life starting today.
Since I can't do anything about the weather, I decided to bring a bit of sunshine inside with a summer time meal.
Today we are going to dine on oven baked BBQ'd baby-back ribs, baked potato, tossed green salad, garlic bread and peach cobbler for dessert.
If that doesn't brighten things up a bit, along with the sun that is shining brightly, I don't know what will.
I hope your Sunday meal is every bit as good as this promises to be!

Sounds like a yummy summer dinner, that you need some help eating::::wink, wink:::: Glad to hear your dwarf tree survived unscathed! Glad also it's warming up for you!!
Too bad you two couldn't have been here, because I had plenty to share! lol!
What a great idea to have a summer meal in January. When my children were young we used to have an outside family picnic in January...I think the inside summer meal sounds perfect for now. I think I'll do that to.
