As you might have noticed by now, I am a native Californian, so it’s easy to surmise how crazy “Snowmageddon” is for me. Snow itself is still sort of a foreign concept, so 30 INCHES of it is strange, indeed. This is the view from my fifth-floor window in DC:
That being said, I went to Trader Joe’s on Thursday to stock up on foodstuffs. Unfortunately, everyone and their mothers (literally) had the same idea, and the line wrapped all the way around the inside of the store and down the oils/pastas/nuts/dried fruits aisle. Yikes!
What was more pleasant for me was going to MacArthur Beverages (as chronicled in a recent post) and then to Ansonia Wines to pick up some wine. I’ve had the opportunity to have a friend or two over with whom to brave the cold, and we’ve gone through a few bottles of wine.
