The Aftermath (and some dinner)

Here's some proof that I didn't make Mira go out and shovel by herself. haha!
So since my sister is posting pictures and stories of her food....I thought I'd post some of my own. I made this southwest quinoa and black bean recipe (VEGAN even- although we add sour cream and cheese). We usually eat it with tortilla chips but last night we put it in tortillas. Delicious. Its one of my fav dishes because it's so colorful and pretty.
Ingredients- black beans, corn, onion, 2 color sweet peppers, chipotle salsa, reg salsa, quinoa, diced tomatoes with green chiles.
Here's what the snow looks like today. I can't tell how much there is because in some places the wind was so strong you can still see the grass, but it's obviously a lot. After B shoveled it blew back over pretty good. Grant and his friend Mike and the boys came over last night and pushed the rest out of the driveway with the gator. Nice.

You can see where the gator was pushing the snow. It was a LOT of snow. I'm sure I could make it out of the neighborhood if I tried, but I don't think we're going to try. It's only 5 degrees and I hate the extreme cold. Especially when carseats and kids are involved.
Trapped in the house yesterday all I wanted to do was make some horrible brownies and cookies and eat them all. Here's to hoping David will bring me some butter today.

I was really wanting to watch Ophra yesturday because she was going to talk about Vegans, etc. But instead the station talked about more snow. Ialso noticed we are down to the double digets on the baby watch. Kind of a milestone I'd say. What about a recipe?

Yes I noticed the double digits also. Scary! Even I have to put in a stupid password when I reply to your comments. Not sure why. B was trying to stay ahead- I know people who didn't shovel at all yesterday and it's higher than the snowblowers!

And just where does your sister post her food? And how, have I been missing it.
