Where are we today ?
Well here we are again, still pretty cool, just above freezing and overcast today, but very little wind so able to get out and about for a few walkabouts. Ya know fresh air, exercise etc.
Kinda just hanging out, read a bit, chat with a few people here and there, compute, emails and stuff, just really enjoying the peace and quiet. No tv, no music kinda really nice.

| can you tell we are in Texas? |
 |
| nice large sites |
This morning Suzie was chatting with sister in law back home and its snowing pretty good, sure glad we are not having that here (yet). The picture below she took out their kitchen window, where we camped there just over a month ago. Mind you temperature here is about the same, and we have winter storm warnings for here Sunday and Monday. At least we are not travelling and have nowhere we need to go.

| That's back home into Ontario, this morning |
 |
| Our Q is waiting for warmer weather just like us |
Now with a roast beef we just have to have Yorkshire pudding and to make it simple for the two of us I picked up a few packs to bring south with us, (have not seen this in the stores here in the USA). I can make it from scratch but for the two us this works just great.
 |
| we stocked up with a few of these |
 |
| so light and fluffy |
 |
| hit the spot today and lotsa leftovers |
Thanks for stopping by for a visit today, should have stayed for supper, we had lots.

That's some cold front...it will be here in Freeport, Fl first of next week...UGH!
ReplyDeleteI love the crock pot...we use ours a lot and you are so right about the yummy smells that fill the air!
Have a great...stay warm...kinda day!
Yep the cold is heading you way, but should warm up a tad before it gets there. Keep enjoy the nice weather now.
DeleteNo problem keeping warm here.
I wanted to make home-made soup yesterday but didn't have several of the ingredients...:(
ReplyDeleteI can smell the pot roast all the way here.
Perfect weather for soup, I would just hop in the car and go get what I need and enjoy your soup.
DeleteTalking about cold weather....we've got -7C and one hell of a storm blowing in from the north-west. Guess the cold is all the way from Florida to California right now. Even the Hot Springs are in the 60ies only.
ReplyDeleteYes is all the way across the country, but will be gone soon (we hope).
DeleteJust make sure you have all you need to just stay inside and cook and relax and be cozy. No trips to the store over the next few days. Was the ban a dancing type, did you two get up and cut the rug?
ReplyDeleteWe were hoping for a dancing band, but did not happen. Mostly old western type music that told stories and most original songs written by the lead singer. But was decent music anyway.
DeleteI got out our crock pot a couple days ago too. However, that time I made a beef stew. I've been thinking about a pot roast. It sure made my mouth water. It's just too cold and nasty to get outside.
ReplyDeleteYep not great for hanging around outside, but will get better soon.
DeleteWe'll be putting the crock pot to use today. It's a wee bit on the cool side out.
ReplyDeletePut on the news last night and was a little surprised to see how much snow there was just an hour or so north of here. And a huge pile up on the 400. White-outs, the whole nine yards!
You can look forward to it warming up where you are at least. Here? Not so much. But I'm OK with that.
Yes it will warm up here in a few days.
DeleteEnjoy your crock pot cooking.
Wow, we had Macaroni and Cheese with hot dogs last night, Tracy and I want to travel with you!
ReplyDeleteI love Macaroni and Cheese with hot dogs, but Suzie not so much. How about I make supper for you and you make supper for me and we share?
DeleteWe're going to have hamburger soup for dinner tonight. It isn't as cold here but it's still soup weather. However, there is nothing like a roast and veggies in the crockpot.
ReplyDeleteHamburger soup is awesome too, maybe do that in another day or two ourselves.
DeleteYorkshire Pudding? Haven't had those in a while. Just might have to try those soon!
ReplyDeleteKind a must have for me when I do roast beef, a nice treat.
DeleteNice dinner for a cold day. Should have brought some of those Club House Yorkshire mixes back myself. I have a supply of the Poutine gravy mix for my occasional fix. Sure looks like winter is setting in back home when looking at the BBQ picture. Have a great Sunday!
ReplyDeleteI was a perfect dinner, we do like to stock up a bit with some special things we enjoy.
DeleteYou have a great sunday too!
We love to have our Canadian brothers and sisters down to visit us, but do you have to bring that winter stuff with you? ;c)
ReplyDeleteThank but we came here to get away from that stuff.
DeleteNever had Yorkshire pudding but it certainly looks good. We're chilly here in Yuma too!
ReplyDeleteYorkshire is easy and tasty, almost like a bun.
DeleteMan George I'm going to start following you around and stop in for dinner! Yum!
ReplyDeleteWe tried to get together with you guys in Oklahoma, but did not work out.
