arctic freeze

With temperatures hovering around 

zero
 or 
below

and a chilly classroom

all 
        day
                   long,

it was a perfect day...

 
for polar bears !

You thought I'd say  hot cocoa didn't you?
{Well, it was a good day for that too!}
:

We decided tonight was the ideal night 
for
steamy homemade turkey soup , 
and
brown and serve rolls.
yum.

    I LOVE TURKEY SOUP and that sounds just wonderful to me! WE TOO HAD 30 below the other night, but yesterday it warmed up to about 20 above...it was actually quite nice! HOW ARE YOU DEAREST?

    Stay comfy...our classroom is also VERY COLD!!! My sweethearts are NOT getting a second recess outside these days...I am NOT standing out there watching them run while I freeze!

  6. Hi, Susan,
    As a retired teacher, I have been in that chilly classroom before (and sometimes too hot classroom). Your dinner sounds delicious, and of course, the hot chocolate and polar bears, too!! Thank you for your dedication in teaching our children. I appreciate you very much! Have a terrific week, sweet friend. Love and hugs to you! Vicki

  10. DEAREST SUSAN! REPORT CARDS ARE OVER! For now...Yes, I finished mine last week because Friday was the day to send them home. Did you ever get my card dear one? AND I LOVE YOUR NEW HEADER! Did you take that photo? I am going to have to really start taking more photos and this summer I intend on sharpening my photo skills. Well, let us keep counting down to warmer days and SPRING BREAK!! Thank you sweet one for coming to visit. I think next week I will start showing some of the progress on our two-room addition!!!

    BISES, Anita
