Do. Not. Like.
We too have been hit by a cold snap! Well, it can just snap out of it! I mean really, -15C (+5F) is just way too cold. Hard to believe it was 60F a week ago. The spring bulbs were even peeking their noses above-ground (which could mean they'll die off now and there's goes all the work I put in last fall). The cats aren't impressed either. They stay in, and when you have a hyper 2-year-old cat who wont go outside, that means she's got to wear off her energy indoors. Yesterday my daughter tied the cat's toy to a kitchen chair so the cat could amuse herself; the cat managed to drag a kitchen chair clear across the kitchen and halfway down the hall! I have no idea where she was going, but I assume she decided she didn't want her toy in the kitchen anymore. LOL.
Somehow, when super-cold weather hits, I get the urge to cook, so today I made home-made lasagna. It takes most of the afternoon to make, but the end result is worth it. My mother-in-law likes to make these teeny little meatballs for it (which take about 1.5-2 hours to make), but early on I said "screw that", and now I just add the meat to the sauce. I mean honestly, home-made is one thing; pioneer methods are something else entirely.
I've started rewatching Star Trek Enterprise. I watched the first season when it originally aired, but lost interest. I've been told seasons 2-5 were better, so here's hoping. I don't think the show is that popular (at least here) because it's very difficult to find.
Well, the oven time's beeping so I better go and see how the lasagna is doing.
