Snow fell all day Wednesday. It was still cold here as well. the pups don't seem to mind.
I keep forgetting to share a tip: Dump a 1/2-pint of home canned corn relish into some cooked green beans for a quick and nutritious side dish. I have vegetarians here, so I don't always mix in bacon grease, and get bored with plain green beans.
The barn door froze shut and I could not get in to fetch eggs thaw water. I had to pry open the other set of doors, use a small stick to flip up my inside latch and get in those doors.
I spent the entire day at the computer. Actually, almost two entire days.

Update on the Frozen Mashed White Potatoes
Quite pleased with the results of the frozen mashed sweet potatoes, we pulled some frozen mashed white potatoes from the freezer recently as well. I froze these in 1 cup portions as well. Our grocer only sells organic white so that's what I froze, but if they start selling organic red skin potatoes, I'll use them as well. And if you are new to reading my blog, our garden was flooded out, so I had very little harvest, hence the buying of potatoes in 2015.
The results?
