This week is starting in a sucky, sucky way. Tomorrow was supposed to be Ella’s birthday party. We were taking her and her besties to Laser Quest. But Environment Canada (and all the news) is calling for SNOWAGEDDON tomorrow into Wednesday. Like 40 cm/16 inches of snow!! Laser Quest is in the far end of Ottawa and Google says 1 1/2 hours (further for our friends) -far too far to drive in crumby weather. We had ridiculous snow squalls on Friday, Colin had a real struggle to get back home from dropping Ella (and shoveling) in Beachburg.
There were a few changes to the menu last week. I didn’t get home in time to make the pot pie, so I made chicken a la king instead. I also didn’t make the beef roast last night. Instead, I made a new chicken chow mien that was quite yummy.
Monday:
leftover chow mien and something for Ella
Tuesday:
perogie
Wednesday:
Thursday: Valentine’s Day
Friday:
leftovers
Saturday:
lasagna
Sunday:
chicken and dumplings

March is in sight Paula!!!!! The transmission on our tractor dropped a gear or some such catastrophe. It’s sitting at the far side of the field. It will likely be a big solid core snowbank by the time this one blows out.
Transmissions are always an expensive fix. LQ was really good about postponing the party. They’ll keep the deposit ‘on file’ until I call back in a couple of weeks to rebook. I was worried they would try to keep it, blizzard or no.
oh so sorry!!! Whew about the rebooking option!!! a big HUG and I hope Ella had a nice birthday and that you can have the party in a few weeks! crazy weather right now. sorry I missed this post – been a busy week. sending a HUG and love to you!
