What to do on a snow day!

To be quite frank, my hubby gets restless VERY easily. I kind of enjoy having an excuse to not leave the house. As much as I like to run errands and snag deals, lounging or getting my never ending TODO list completed is just as satisfying. But, one thing we both enjoy wether it's cold or not is the following....SNOW ICE CREAM! Yum!

Try it sometime!

*1 bowl snow

*vanilla extract

*sugar

*milk

stir in a small amount of milk until desired consistency and add other ingredients to taste

I thought I would still have my WIC appt. today, but it was cancelled! Since myself and the two little ones were already out, I thought I would stop by Dillon's to use some coupons.
