Where in the World Isn't Bob Saget?

Apparently winter is coming after all.
FYI:10-15 cm = 4-6".

From Environment Canada: A low from Texas will spread snow, ice pellets, and blowing snow into the regions Monday evening. Snow and ice pellet amounts of 10 to 15 cms are expected before precipitation changes to freezing rain early Tuesday. Freezing rain will change to rain or drizzle during the day Tuesday. Furthermore, strong easterly winds gusting to 70 km/h are expected Monday evening and Monday night with gusts to 80 km/h possible near Lake Ontario. Travel conditions will rapidly deteriorate Monday evening as visibilities drop to near zero and roads become covered in snow and ice pellets. Significant disruption to travel may persist into Tuesday. - See more at: http://www.newstalk1010.com/news/20...most-of-southern-ontario#sthash.ZVZX2ohq.dpuf

Y'all might or might not know that I hate Skittles, but this is pretty cool - a pop up pawn shop that will take your unwanted stuff ...and pay you in Skittles.

The pawned items are then donated to charity.

Make sure you read the PSST ....

I had a lot of fun with the appraisal part...and no I didn't submit any of the listed items, but I did have a lot of rejected items.

What, for instance, was rejected?

My 7 least favourite words this week:
"Are you going to get dressed today?"

Let's just assume "no", and then if/when I do, we can all be pleasantly surprised.

What, for instance, was rejected?

an old cell phone, a swing set, a guitar
all rejected

Accepted
1 lawn chair = 15 bags of skittles
6 Matchbox cars = 7 bags of skittles

I'm surprised about the guitar.
I guess it's because all items are being donated to GoodWill.

Those are my least favorite as well. Especially when followed by: "Now get off my lawn, or I'm calling the cops!"

Sad news in my city this evening. Had several tornados rip through the Dallas area tonight. Lots of damage to businesses and homes. Also, four people lost their lives. Terrible news any day, especially day after Christmas.

Sorry to hear this. Something you never want to hear happening, but even more awful considering the time of year.

I really stumped it when I posted a picture of a wrapped present.

So sorry for the people in your area. Meanwhile here we're having record warm weather.

I have heard that is good, maybe I will need to buy one next year from the Italian deli near me.

Slice it, put in an oven at 350 for 5 min and then schmear some Nutella on it. That's the way we do it in our family.

It makes a good French toast as well.

I made some awesome Nutella cookies for Christmas this year . You roll up a walnut size ball of sugar cookie dough, then flatten it into a circle in a muffin pan. Add a dollop of Nutella in the middle, then cover with a second flattened out cookie circle. pinch it to seal the 2 cookies together and bake for 10 - 12 minutes at 350. They were awesome! I might try to do that with peanut butter cookie dough next time.

I've done something similar with crescent dough and a blob of Nutella then bake and sprinkle generously with confectioners sugar. Mmmmmmmm.

Am I the only one who doesn't like Nutella?

I'm there with ya!

Am I the only one who doesn't like Nutella?

I don't recall ever having any. When in Europe it was everywhere. What couldn't be found was Peanut Butter. I guess that the chance of my ever living in Europe has diminished by a huge amount.

We are supposed to get snow and a half inch of sleet and ice tomorrow morning into the later parts of the day.
