Not Going Anywhere

We're utterly snowed in. It was a bit tricky yesterday (got a lift into town, in a four-wheel drive), but today, although, ironically, the (ungritted) track is passable, the publically-maintained (nominally) road it comes off is ice. And steep. So we're not going anywhere; at least not immediately. Hopefully the turkey will still be delivered tomorrow...

I'm delighted, in some ways, to be past the solstice: it'll be nice to have dawn creep back towards when we're getting up. On the downside, it can be a very pretty time of year.

It is, however, extremely pretty. And there might be snowman (and snowcat) making later.

In the mean time, we're pickling onions, and doing other Christmas-related baking. Aaah, holidays.
