Sunday morning didn't bring any new snow but some weather vagary had scoured the air pollution out of the valley for the morning, which was really, really nice. Milton and I did a slightly longer walk, with some off-leash zoomies in an elementary school playground. When we got home, I was a little at a loss as to what to do with myself, what with the clean house and the up Christmas tree. I soon made myself a list and started checking things off: more laundry; baking dog cookies; roasting a butternut squash (a CSA holdover); starting a Liqueur 44 infusion; finishing holiday cards; dehydrating unused fresh rosemary and thyme (leftover from the savory bread pudding); and making leek and potato soup for dinner.
Meanwhile, H took his first ski bus ride of the year to Alta. It was not crowded. The snow conditions were unchanged from Saturday, but weather-wise it was cloudier, windier and colder. My goodness we need snow. And there is just nothing in the foreseeable forecast. I hope it's not going to be another one of those years.
