It snowed today! Finally - after a winter that’s been acting much more like spring, we woke to four inches towering on the porch railings, a backyard transformed, and yet more snow swirling through the air in blizzardlike gusts.

I think you would definitely like the wonton layers, knowing your aversion to pie crust. Jeremy even likes to eat them on their own as cookies (the cinnamon sugar versions). I'm not much of a fan of apple pie either, so I was surprised when these ended up tasting so good.

I can give you the spring roll recipe I used: http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2011/11/leftover-turkey-spring-rolls/ - I used chicken instead of turkey and then made a vegetable only version for Jeremy. It would have turned out fine if we had only had spring roll wraps - the filling is delicious. Oh, and I forgot to mention you can make a successful non-chicken version of the soup too, and it's still really good.

Ooooh, yours sounds like the best snow day as well! I kind of miss Utah midnight sledding (for some reason that was the only time I ever went). We only have the rectangular foam ones, as well, which aren't quite as good but you can still be creative with them and have fun. However, we didn't even think of using them as snowboards. Next time, definitely!

And we must have a shared snow day mindset because I was about to make snow ice cream out of our fresh snow, but remembered we still have the illegitimate child of ice cream sitting in our freezer. I was going to make it cake batter flavored, but it sounds wonderful with root beer.
