Jinxed myself in that post.

I wanted to bake bread and cookies this evening. I'm out of butter, and if I use the eggs in the cookies, I can't have them for breakfast tomorrow. It's dark, snowing, 25°F, winds SW @ 15 mph.

So I geared up, rode to the store and got butter and eggs. The bread dough is rising now. I'll start the cookies after dinner, when the oven is on anyway for the bread.

Fresh bread for the morning and cookies for tonight are far more important than worrying about some dumb old snowstorm.
