We have’nt received any new snow here over the past 24 hours.

There is no recipe today. The recipe  service can’t resume until the government shutdown ends.

If our elected representatives have any guts at all, they’ll pass legislation tieing government shutdowns to their own paychecks. IF they feel the same pain wwe do maybe they’ll snap out of it and get back to work. By the way, after this display of immaturity, none of you legislators (or executives in the white house)  down in DC better be looking for a raise any time soon. IF we could fire you, we would.
