klister

.


crystals glittering
powder delicate and plush
prototypical

it's not supposed to snow when it's this cold!!

(The temperature numbers have minus signs in front!) [shiverrrr]

Yet we got 2 inches overnight, and oh - so pretty. :)



the pictures really don't do it justice.



This is the kind of snow that has such low moisture content that it simply evaporates in your hand. When we used to cross-country ski (before I got sick of hitting trees because I could never figure out how to turn), this was when the "klister wax" came out of the fanny pack.

But the snow... it's what the craft suppliers fashion their "fake snow" after, fluffy and soft. :) Except it's the real thing.

It has been so cold here (yes a relative term) that there was frost on the ground today! Pretty- liek sugar icing, but apparently God is warming me up (pun intended) for the snow onsluaght to come- bring it on baby ;-)
