Weather Wows Phoenix

Let it snow!  A memorable past couple of days!  Winter wonderland!  Has this weather been great or what?!  Snow topped cacti…golf was cancelled.  These are the headlines.
 

Just our luck this happened when my husband’s sister Judy came for a visit.  She and her husband Louie live about an hour from Chicago and the last thing they wanted to see was snow.  They arrived on Wednesday, and I immediately took off for the butterscotch-girls-do-Tucson event.  I didn’t ask, but I believe my husband stopped to buy a honey baked ham and took them straight home after dropping me off.   
 

The next day, I had them meet me in town for lunch and I took them on a mini tour of Cave Creek.  Thank goodness, because winter came to Arizona the next day.  And wouldn’t you know…today it’s sunny again, so the drive to the airport was lovely. 
 

The weather aside, our visit was great!  Of course, I planned to eat out every night so I wouldn’t have to cook.  And just in case that plan went awry, Mike bought a new grill to use.  He’s the grill-cook ever since I tried to burn down the house about twenty years ago with a grill. 
 

He was so proud,  He found a huge grill at the best sale price, and he didn’t even complain (much) about putting it together.  The rain nixed using the grill. 
 

By the last night it became clear I’d have to cook…and I hadn’t shopped.  Yeah, let it snow.  Snow ice cream makes a good meal.

Brit - who also had a story due in the middle of this!

    Wasn’t the snow great? however, I missed actually seeing it come down. I took a short nap and missed it. Darn it. We didn’t get much here on the west side anyway. Everything fun seems to happen on the east side. I think we need to hear about how you amost burned the house down.

    Which time?

  3. Bev Says:

    Which time? Oh man, no wonder you aren’t allowed near a grill. We definitely need to hear about them.

  4. Tina Says:

    Yeah, my dh won’t let me near the grill either. I haven’t ever almost burned the house down - I think it’s a man thing - comes with the “boxed set” as Kayce calls it…lol.
