This was about it for our snow event last week. There was a couple of inches. It shut down Atlanta, but we were north of all the chaos.

Pretty while it lasted, but all melted away now. I don't see how you folks up north handle it.

While I am posting photos, here is breakfast this morning. I could not sleep and got up early. Restless and already sick of the morning news, I decided to make breakfast. I took a pic because the frittata turned out so good. Silly I know. Low carb except for the grapes and pita crisps. And no, this was not just for me. We shared this plate and there was a little left over for lunch. This time last year I would have been grabbing a couple (or three) jelly doughnuts with a big ole Mtn. Dew and maybe a sausage biscuit with hash browns on the side. I know the ham is probably freakin' out figgy. Forgive me?

Somehow, your snow looks pretty. Ours doesn't melt. I'll have to take some pictures, and post them. It's crazy, and I don't know how Northern Minnesotans and Michigan Yoopers do it.

Yeah, see here in the south, even a little snow freaks us out, but it is gone in a day or two, sometimes the same day. We have no evidence left there was even any snow last week, except maybe banged up fenders. All on the ground was gone quickly. Watching the weather on TV it looks like the midwest and northeast are getting it again today. I like to get outside and if I lived up there, guess I would never get any exercise except indoors. This has been an unusually cold winter here and we have used about twice the normal amount of propane for heat. So I suppose up north, like here only multiplied, the harsh winter affects morale and pocketbooks.

You've nailed it! Although, this winter has been so cold the kids don't even want to go out and play in it.
I just posted a pic of the backyard in the Too Cold thread. That is a regular size patio table, and yes, it is almost under snow. I just hope there is a spectacular spring planned after all of this, to make it seem worthwhile.

Got my butt absolutely kicked today with these amazing videos, which I did multiple times.
At
least you're working out!
WOW! I wouldn't want to get them mad!
Very pretty! Up my way we call that moist air! I'd be laughing if I wasn't crying!
Good morning! HA!! At least I got 5 indoor miles in. Rant over, Berry, banana, protein shake for breakfast, assorted veggies and beans for lunch and for dinner cabbage "steak" with brown rice. I'm heading out to finish the shoveling later!
Stay warm and safe and keep moving !xoxo

Hello,
Just keeping warm and checking in with workout called Tonique Born to Move. It was an hour and 15 minutes squats and lunges with some burpees, planks and push up thrown in for good measure. I have a love/hate for the Tonique Method. It gets my heart rate up with minimal impact, but my gosh, it's incredibly boring and torturous. It doesn't help that she can't count and is uneven with reps on legs. Boo.
Anyway, tomorrow is Friday and that is a good thing.

I meant to ask you what is in this frittata? I usually make myself a two egg omelette with a wedge of Laughing Cow Light and some salsa for breakfast and I am bit burnt out on that. I am always looking for new ways with eggs.
Thanks.

It has onions, jalapeño, ham, grated cheddar and sour cream, sometimes mushrooms but not this time. I sauté the onions and peppers in butter, toss in chopped ham then whip three eggs with a dollop of sour cream and black pepper. I pour the eggs into the pan with the other ingredients, add the cheese, let it set up on medium low heat, lifting on the sides to let the eggs get to the bottom, then I finish it under the broiler of the little toaster oven because I like for the top of the frittata to be firmly set. Probably more than you wanted to know but I like making breakfast. Another good choice is to use pulled pork bbq in place of the ham...yummy. Of course, I like to top it with hot sauce or salsa. I am type two diabetic and have to watch the carbs intake and this tastes great and is low carb. Unfortunately it is hardly low calorie. Give it a try and let me know what you think. My wife says I use too many onions and peppers, but the amount is easily adjusted to taste. Bell peppers also work as a substitute for, or addition to the jalapeño.I meant to ask you what is in this frittata?

Hope you all have room for more! My DW and I have let ourselves go a bit during these winter months in North Carolina, and we want to (scratch that, we ARE) getting back into working out. We used to go almost daily to the YMCA but we upgraded housing and had to allocate the gym membership funds elsewhere.
We are going to get motivated so we can be in good shape for our big Disney trip in late October!!!! Hope to post some updates soon!
