Click on the picture so you can really see the snow! I took the picture at about 8:15 this morning and it's now 12:45 pm and it's gone! The snow is gone, except on the mountains to the north and east of us. It's still very beautiful, but not so close to home.
And, the sun is shining and I don't think I have a good reason to indulge in comfort food, especially looking at my weight. Lynsey commented with some healthy, great tasting ideas that I really appreciated, but I think it's going to be a salmon and spinach kind of night. I want to see that 170.0 again.
It does snow in Arizona. In fact, there's a big ski area just above Flagstaff, AZ. Most of us don't think about snow when we think of AZ, but it's part of the landscape in the northern reaches of the state.
But we are gearing up for snow in the Phoenix area, in my neighborhood in Scottsdale on Sunday. I'm really quite excited about it. The last time we had snow was 3 Christmases ago, when all the relatives were here and it snowed for about 5 minutes. Before that, on the day that my friend Ann flew in from Massachusetts to enjoy sunny Scottsdale, it snowed! Yes, it was embarrassing but fun to see kids snowboarding around cactus plants!
So what's going to taste good on a cold, snowy day that isn't loaded with calories?
