Snowy days

There is something very magical about a nice quiet snow fall. I'm not talking about a snowy day when you have millions of errands to run, or a blizzard going outside and loved ones on the roads. I'm just talking about those rare days when you can sit at home and look out your window at a gentle snow falling from a slightly grey sky.

There is something so cozy and quiet about those days. They also make me want to do something domestic, something like baking or sewing. Then finish the day off by curling up in a snugly blanket with a good book and a steaming cup of tea.

So far today I have baked a loaf a whole wheat bread, and have a loaf of white raising. I also have got quite a bit of cleaning done and a few loads of laundry. I'm looking forward to making some cookies and muffins later this afternoon. I AM going to get to that snugly blanket, book and steaming tea before this snow stops falling ;)

What are some things you like to do on a quiet snowy day?
