***It's snowing!***

.... at 1,300 feet (or so I heard). I think I may have seen/heard some sort of frozen precipitation falling on the car as I drove to work this morning. It's blustery and cold! And the commute took almost an hour (took 22 minutes to go 6 miles, usually I can make that section in 10-11 minutes, tops!). Thankfully, it's almost Thanksgiving and that means a break from work and some time to spend with the 'rents.

Grandfather Mountain this morning (with fresh snow, elevation 5,964 ft.)


We are cooking Thanksgiving dinner at our house this year (we did in 2004 just after we moved in, I thought I had a post about it, but can't seem to find it). I'm in charge of the turkey (check), green bean casserole (check), stuffing (check), cranberry sauce (check), pumpkin pie (check), rolls (check), and something else... (not check). Mom is making her FAMOUS sweet potato soufflé, pecan pie, ambrosia salad and fresh collard greens (thanks to dad and his mad gardening skillz). I think we'll have plenty of food for the 4 of us.
