Eye Candy Friday

January 9, 2009 By Carole

Ice, ice, baby. If you click that picture and make it bigger you can really see the ice. Just saying.

I’m ready for spring but it’s going to be a while.

I’m also ready for the weekend. Thankfully that starts now! Have a good one!

    I’ve got a few hours before my weekend starts, but I’m in total agreement. Your ice is lovely – just don’t fall!

    Have a great weekend- were getting more snow! Much better than ice- just sayin’. I am looking forward to Spring too.

    We’ve got the same type of wintery wonderland look going on around here. Now there’s another big storm heading our way 6-8″ in my area. That must mean a foot plus for you.

    Spring can’t come soon enough!

    We had ice on Monday but sun the rest of the week. This winter hasn’t been too bad, but I hear the inversion is coming. Hopefully it will be a short one. Enjoy your weekend!!

    It must be a pain to deal with, but it sure is pretty!

    We got ice too! I couldn’t get out of our driveway on Wednesday at all…if my car had ice skates I could have. Now we still have ice but can slowly get in and out – however the snow we’re due to get tomorrow will complcate things. I am so ready for summer! If I’m housebound tomorrow I’ll get lots of knitting done I guess. Have a good weekend.

    I love the way ice and snow make everything sparkle. Maybe that’s why I decided to be born the day after a major ice storm. 😉

    I love snow…I hate ice, though it makes for some beautiful photography! Hope you have a warm and wonderful weekend!

    I’m glad I don’t have to deal with ice, even though it’s pretty.

    I’m ready for spring too, particularly today. It’s freezing out there. Have a great weekend!

    No snow and ice here – it’s been a fairly winter-free season so far but now that I’ve said that all kindsa snow will break loose and cover us up until April. heh

    Happy Winter Weekend complete with pretty icy and frosty things, but stay outta the ER! XOXOXOX

    Pretty stuff!

    Very pretty! We are expecting freezing rain in Maryland tomorrow. To be expected, as it is my birthday and there is always (for all 50 years, I think, with maybe one exception) precipitation on my birthday, no matter where I live at the time.

    January 9, 2009 at 12:29 pm

    Yeah, you can pretty much ice skate on my driveway. There’s about an inch or more of very slick ice covering the whole thing.

    And now I hear more snow is coming tomorrow. Yikes.

    No one believed me when I said back in August/Sept. that it was going to be a rough winter. My mom laughed at me and asked how I knew. I just had a feeling. That, and the squirrels were working hard to collect food that late in summer/early in the fall. Always a sure sign.

    yuck. ice = no fun at all.
    I, too am ready for spring.. yet I fear that this is going to be a bad winter yet ahead. The flooding out here is beyond describing.

  16. Vicki says

    We had a bad freezing rain/ice storm on Saturday night — and it is STILL glare ice in many places (mostly the pedestrian places), so one must be VERY careful.

    I, too, am ready for winter to be over. Look here, we’re already a third through January, February is short, and there CAN be nice days in March. Let’s hope…

    Oh! PRETTY! (I know it’s also treacherous…) What a great shot!
    Happy Weekend!

    That photo is awesome…i could see the ice so clearly!!! Spring is a bit in the future – but, the week-end is a good thing! Have fun!

    That picture is gorgeous! Ice is so annoying (not to mention dangerous) but it is pretty!
    ENJOY your weekend. It could not come fast enough this week!

    We had sun and 60 degrees today! But tonight the winds from up north are set to blow in and we’ll be down in the 20s. I did sit outside with my daughter today to soak up a little sun before it was gone!

  24. Birdsong says

    Sure looks beautiful, but makes the driving tough… spent my day traveling over the pass to the other side of the county and back, though the roads were well-sanded. Stay cozy over the weekend.

    Cocoa weather, eh? At least you aren’t in Alaska. The weather reports are surreal! Aren’t you glad you knit?! Please walk and drive carefully — ice is evil.

    Out in SF, the magnolias are blooming, birds are singing, and it’s time to pick lemons. We *have* had some light frosts some nights, but nothing hard. DH is walking laps with hand weights down the street at the park. Oh, and one of the neighbor’s plum trees is blooming, too, as are my roses. My dad calls it a false spring, but it sure feels real!

  27. paula says

    January 10, 2009 at 5:11 pm

    That’s pretty, from this great distance. And I do remember Vanilla Ice, baby.

  28. Emily says

    January 11, 2009 at 2:28 pm

    When we had ice storms in Atlanta, I loved to hear the creaky-cracky when the wind blew. Crazy, I know, since it’s tough on the trees and tough on houses and power lines when they fall, but ya like what you like.

If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good for, it’s my sourdough game. I actually started learning about making sourdough bread a week before the stay at home orders thanks to @sprboston as he shared his starter and recipe and technique with me. Since then I have kept Mama Cass fed and alive and have baked many loaves of bread. This one might be my best one yet. I did the final proof in the fridge for 24 hours and baked it from its cold state. Great spring and ear and crumb, it was delicious with dinner tonight. #sourdough #sourdoughbread #lookatthatcrumb #lookatthatear #homebakedbread #imadeitmyself #homemadeisbest
