Talismans






When you're in near whiteout conditions, what do you use to keep your house safe? Today's talismans are a yellow primrose, blueberry pancakes, an evil eye brought back from Turkey by our friend Kate and a Chinese God, arm upright bestowing blessings upon our home.

So far, so good. We have power, heat, food, friends (neighborhood potluck planned for tonight) and a sleeping dog. 50 mile an hour winds expected tonight. Bring 'em on, we're protected!

(I did knock on wood 3 times after I wrote that.)

  1. Good luck with all that. We had "thunder snow" in Richmond this morning - I heard it and thought, "what??" We only got two inches, tho, so I fear we have sent the remainder on to you. Stay snug!

  2. Thank you Webb. Can't believe you came back from Florida to this! Guess only another Virginian understands!
