Please don't be overconfident in your ability to drive in adverse driving conditions. Most accidents are caused by people driving too fast for the road conditions. Some, however, just happen. Confidence is good. Over-confidence - not so much.
My son, who is one month older than you has already totalled one car, and bounced my brand new car off a curb at 70 km/h (black ice), and blew out two tires and shredded two rims.

And not to disparage MD drivers, but seriously, y'all can't drive in more than an inch of snow?

I should rephrase: I'm confident that I can handle it because I would take the roads nice and slowly and I'm driving the SUV which has four wheel drive and can handle it. My parents didn't let me drive in icy conditions until this winter for that reason, nor do they let me drive the new car. I've already been in an accident (hit and run, not my fault) and have no desire to be in another one. I'm being extra cautious with this car since it's my mom's car currently (also the one I had the accident it; it needs no more damage), I don't have a back up car, and it might become mine if my car can't be fixed (which it might not).

MD's drivers are pretty bad, but our clean up system is terrible. We just don't get enough snow to have the experience to deal with it. If you don't have an SUV, it's not good. When I was in Florida we had a major snowstorm (you'd call it a normal winter day ;) ) and people posted pictures on Facebook of horrible accidents everywhere. We also get a lot of ice because of fluctuating temperatures between freezing and not freezing. One day last year my bus got stuck coming up the hill to the school because of the ice. We really should have had a delay that day; my bus wasn't the only one with an issue.

Agreed. But ... an inch?
Our plows don't even hit the roads until accumulation hits 5 cm (2 inches).

I know just a covering shut schools down in Texas for 3 days. So many different conditions here and lack of any infrastructure to deal with it. Here I'm fine till about 6 inches driving, I'd be insane in Minnesota.

Yep we have so many different climates here in the U.S.

Slurp.

Yep, delish.

Having had all three though, I pick the grilled banana bread.

Two bits of advice, if you've never had it:
1) Ask for extra peanut butter sauce
2) Do not share. Turn your back on your dining partners, if necessary.
If you are foolish enough to let them try a single taste, you won't get it back. Trust me, this is how I scored my first dish.

All finished with my 10,000th post project! I hope to have it out before I go to bed. You all may proceed to sit on the edge of your seat (or whatever you happen to be sitting/laying/standing on).

PS- This is post 9,999! Such a fun number to say!

I am standing on Gary Busey. He's struggling to reach for the empty fishbowl, but I think I have him restrained for the time being.

Glad you're under control. My DD always has her with her too. Ya gotta. She has so many triggers. She always hated peanuts, peanut butter so who know, I often wonder if her hatred was her body telling her don't eat this, the same way a Pup won't eat grapes????

I feel her pain. I had the shots which helped immensely; just now when I'm allergic to something, I'm ALLERGIC. Oddly, I've never had to hit myself with the epi for food, which is what I have it for. Twice it was for medication and once it was for a vaccine, either the Tdap or meningitis; I got them at the same time so we're not sure. Perfume is my other major trigger. Axe body sprays will completely shut me down. To me, once you know you're allergic to a food, it loses its appeal.

Thanks!

Perfume and the likes is her biggest trigger too. Year two three and four she had a private dorm room. Survival.
