This may be hard for you to hear - I remember how I scoffed when we first moved here and I heard it............but we have had Heavy Rain Warnings.<br />Yes - you read that right. We get warnings about Heavy Rain.

This past weekend I made 24 cupcakes and then threw them out and started over after leaving my iPhone (with the oven timer running) inside and completely forgetting about them. Oops.

I mean, have mercy! And do they not think humans are capable of looking out for themselves anymore? Pardon me, but I don't need a mayor or governor or president telling me what is best for me.

What Nashville is NOT known for is her citizens being able to drive in 1" of snow, or they think they do and go 70 miles an hour and wipe out, which makes for interesting news footage.

I will be right after you, baking one for Valentine's. It is a science project for sure, with all the cocoa powder aspects to consider. If it wasn't for a boatload of red dye I would be baking it more often.<br /><br />Re: snow. I grew up in Siberia.People assume I *like* snow and cold.

It will be a limited edition kind of product. The center is a cream cheese flavored cream instead of vanilla and the cookie is flavored like red velvet. I've been hearing a lot of frustrated people talk about the forcast being so far off on the news. I think the cities are mad because it cost them so much money to shut everything down.

My daughter and I went to the market on Sun. and the parking lot was soooo crowded; I did not realize at this point we were getting a snowstorm and said to her,'"they must really have some good sales this week!". <br />Well, I am glad!
