More Snow YIKES!! PeanutButter Coconut Cookies.

More snow can you believe:

 What a couple of crazy weeks it has been.

We are lucky so far nothing like the East Coast so glad about that..

All though I do feel sorry for them they are really getting dumped on, but then again that's how it is every year.
We will still get a big one its not over yet..

I just came in from clearing off the back deck third time today. Ill feel it tomorrow my arthritis in my hips will punish me for doing that. But Im used to being active so I try to do as much as I can. It wasn't all that deep. I just trying to keep up with it so it wouldn't be so hard to handle.

I took a few pictures today.

Mr Hawk

 I took a break from visiting Bill because of the snow he didn't want to worry about me driving all the way up their. And he has been down really sick for the past few days their always taking him for x rays.
Its scary..

Please keep him in your prayers he sure can use them.

I just took a break and was going to do the front steps and porch

  Our next door neighbor had already done it.

They were just finishing it up.

Joe who usually does it missed a few bucks this time around.

Im going to miss them they have been the best neighbors their house is for sale.

 As a matter of fact they all have been just so so nice.

All those years we shoveled snow for the neighbors in Chicago.
Always being a good neighbor is paying off.
Of course wrong neighborhood!
 We move out here and the people cant do enough.

What a difference
 Not that the neighbors were not caring in Chicago they were,
Out here they really care in a different way..
They are so giving, Its really beautiful.

I haven't shared a recipe for a while, I made these this week.

Steve who is staying with me while Bill is in the hospital doesn't eat chocolate.

  I made cookies with out chocolate so he could have one.
