HELLUVA ICE STORM!!

So -- here's why Mary had to postpone her visit to Iowa...

Mother Nature...Winter....Blizzards....Ice Storms.

Hey -- I know there are many places in the world that are having WORSE WEATHER than we are...

But it has been brutal...that's all I'm sayin'....

Wednesday morning, I was supposed to be headed to Chicago!! TO SEE HAMILTON..!! BUT INSTEAD -- I WOKE UP TO THIS....

An ice storm came to my house...and stayed most of the night...

So, driving was not an option.

And we are having our own snowmageddon in the PNW! Since we rarely get snow, we don't quite have the infrastructure to combat it. Also, with our climate the roads get wet first, then freeze, then snow. Then there are all the hills. That's why it shuts us down completely.

King Arthur Popover Recipe

Preheat oven to 425 degrees... then preheat the Popover Pan...it needs to be screaming hot. Butter the sides generously -- right before you pour the batter.

4 eggs
1 1/3 c. milk
1 1/3 c. all purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
3 tbl melted butter

Whisk eggs into milk. Make sure everything is room temp. Whisk in the flour & salt, add the melted butter at the end.

Pour thin batter into Popover pan (2/3 full) and bake for 30 minutes. DON'T OPEN THE DOOR.

When the popovers are done -- get them out of the pan ASAP and prick the top with a sharp knife to prevent collapse.

Serve with REAL BUTTER...that's mandatory. Homemade jam is optional...
