We Await the Storm

Milk, Eggs and Bread

Up to 14” of snow predicted. Hasn’t started yet. I went down to our neighborhood market and bought a few items.

Update Sunday 4:57 am the snow started in the night and I just heard from my friend Joanne who told me about Storm Chips

How storm chips became a bad-weather staple in Atlantic Canada

Here’s a photo of a bag of Storm Chips her friend Colleen just purchased in Nova Scotia as prep for this week’s weather.

    • Just updated the post with an interesting article about Storm Chips in Canada
      Thanks for your visit and comments.

    • Schools closed today. Garbage pickup rescheduled. We got what was predicted. No plow has come to my street yet.

  1. This storm is going to be a big one. Very glad that I have a fireplace and plenty of wood (and knitting!)

  2. I have never heard of storm chips, but I like the idea of having a special food to hunker down with. Stay safe! We have been at -24 to -3 (F) since Friday…..

  3. I must have been in the store with hundreds of folks looking for unhealthy items to pass the storm with. lol I came home with a chicken, carrots, bone broth, tiny potatoes, peas and more carrots, cabbage. I whipped up a stockpot full of goodness I can pop into my car should we lose power down here by the sea in NH. Stay safe.

    • Sounds like a delicious kettle of soup to comfort and keep warm. A definite frenzy in the store.

      • Chocolate chip cookies fresh from the oven are great, but I have been known to eat a bag of chocolate chips during a storm without bothering to put them into cookies!! 😉😄

  4. Thanks for including the info on storm chips, Ruth. My bestie in Nova Scotia already ate half the bag of her storm chips … and I don’t think the storm has started yet…… JB

    • Awww thanks for sending the good info. We did get the snow predicted. Also didn’t get chips!!

  5. From your picture it looks like you are having French Toast. It has been a long time since I saw milk in glass bottles. Enjoy the snow.

    • We are warm inside. 14 inches of snow. Schools closed again tomorrow. We are well. Thanks Leanne.
