    So we got a shit load of snow last night to where it's almost impossible to get out of the door (Back door) and it goes up to almost our knees.

    Yeah, it's been tough for us in Missouri too. It's beautiful, but freezing cold! Had to go out and shovel snow. I was trying to be tough and didn't put on a hat or gloves, and wow, I thought I was going to faint; the wind just tore through me.

    We only get the bad effects on winter. There's snow, but not enough for delicious snow cream. Sigh. I'm starving for it too. <3
    Maybe we will yet.

    This is what 24" of snow looks like. I took these a few minutes ago, and this is all on campus. The snow is as high as the cars in the parking lot, and the road is a death wish.

    I want to eat all of that glorious snow. *drool*
    We used to get lots of it like that at my old home. It was as tall as me as a child.

    Seriously, does no one else here love snow cream? It's when you mix fresh, clean snow with milk (I use non-dairy), sugar and vanilla flavoring. It tastes better than ice cream as some would tell you.

    I've never heard of it, but it sounds delicious. When it finally gets its ass around to snowing, I may try that.

    It is so good. Get you a big bowl of it since it reduces in size by alot and slowly mix in the other stuff until you like the taste. Unhealthy, but it only comes around once a year so. :slight_smile:

    I admit I have a problem. I honestly don't know why my teeth haven't given up on me.

    My (absolutely ridiculous) theory is that my sugar free coke consumption kills all the bacteria.

    It's a pretty active winter. Up here in Chicago, IL it wasn't as bad, we got like 10 inches of snow yesterday. We got 12 inches of snow on New Years so that leaves like 20 inches on the ground. The real problem is that it is -15 degrees out and it is freezing everywhere. Stay warm, I heard some areas saw as much as 3 feet of snow.

    It snowed all day yesterday (something that made me really happy cause it was my birthday and I love snow), and today school got canceled. They canceled it for tomorrow too, but that's just cause it's too frickin' cold.

    That's aborable lol jk that's pretty impressive

    I lived in North Dakota for 6 years. After living in Chicago I used to think I knew what winter was until I moved there...that was unreal

    Feet of snow, -65 windchill...I can say I am used to it, but I don't like. I pray my partner gets a job somewhere warm

    I'm so jealous! I love snow, and we hardly get any, here, most years. I love the way it closes everything down, and gives you a break.

    Naturally, we got slammed, not to mention it's extremely cold.

    I nearly died walking from my class back to my car today.

    I wish I could send ours to you. We get it where we're buried every winter. The sad part is we're so used to it that it doesn't close everything down until you'll wreck if you drive. So it's just cold.
