The snow is piling up!

We had a big snow storm yesterday and it snowed some more during the night and this morning. I had hoped to take a walk today, but it's pretty cold, and with the blowing snow, it isn't too inviting. We'll see - maybe later this afternoon it will calm down.

Yesterday, I didn't go anywhere - just stayed cozy at home and worked on indexing the hundreds of pages I have digitized, a time-consuming job, but one I actually enjoy, for some strange  reason.  I have always liked highly detailed tasks. I guess I would have made a good CPA.

Sunday afternoon we joined millions of our fellow-Americans and watched the Super Bowl.  Paul, Jenny and Max went to the home of a family they enjoy for the first half, so Ellen and I had the place to ourselves for a while. They came back to the condo for the second half. We felt like we were sort of slumming. I have no great interest in Pro Football, and the game was not particularly well-played, but our New England Patriots won, and I guess you could say it was a victory for seniors: Bellichick is the oldest coach to win  a Super Bowl (I think), and Tom Brady the oldest quarterback. Yay, old folks!

Ellen and Max made soft pretzels for a treat - they were yummy.

Soft pretzels waiting for the oven. When they baked, they swelled up and ended up looking more like bagels. Still yummy, though
