we had a nor'easter blow in during the night, but chanda was still up early to help open the cafe. i wanted to get out for a walk before it stopped snowing, while the courtyard was still covered in white drifts with only a few footprints.
christopher street, looking west towards the river.
the snowplows were out . .
the building porters were busy shoveling and snow blowing the sidewalks . . (shoveling snow in front of the cafe was a morning chore chanda had to do also) . .
we had put in an order for a ham and cheese croissant, a dark chocolate cherry cookie and a mocha. i was planning on sipping the mocha as we walked home, but my fingers were so frozen from taking photos and videos that i could hardly hold the cup . . plus i continued to try and take more pics and videos on the way back, which was very awkward.
greg was amused with how rosy our cheeks were.
at home i made a split pea soup, and then went out again when it had stopped snowing, but it wasn't as pretty as earlier. i took photos with my camera then, but these were all taken with the cellphone.

this afternoon:
split pea soup for dinner . .
Lovely photos, your take out order sounded delicious and I love the photo of you and Greg. Poor Eva has had a terrible time with the weather causing all sorts of delays xx
ReplyDeleteHello San, yes, poor Eva! It has not been a fun trip. Thankfully, they have arrived but I hope all is to their liking in the rented space!
DeletePretty snow, but it was not pretty for us on the way and now all the students and the other professor might get stuck. I am glad that we have managed to get here finally. You should have seen those poor people in Atlanta: Many were wearing shorts and it was snowing.
