Brown Sugar Chews and a Blizzaed

 On the east side of the house the drifts are pretty high...  over the sills

 Finally about 3 pm  all my chickies were in their homes and off the roads.... Highways are closing all around and the wind is brutal with the low temps and flying snow.....  So this is a blizzard.  I will say I don't recall it ever worse.  I feel for anyone out in it....

Mom took the opportunity to make a 8 by 8 pan of cookies from her favorite author ever, Gladys Taber.

Delicious!
