Snowicane

Hello from the Philly edition. We are in the middle of our 4th snowstorm/blizzard. I did not think that of the three of us it would be me in Snomageddon! It was a great winter to pick for maternity leave though! I just snuggle with a cute baby, lazily drink hot chocolate out of my Keurig, watch Buffy reruns for the 3rd time, Battlestar Gallactica for the first time and watch the snow come down.

Side Note: Hot Chocolate, it is not even that tasty when it is from the Keurig, although don't get me wrong the Keurig has changed my life drastically in terms of coffee supply and I will never go without one for as long as I live.

Anyway, tonight we are supposed to be having a "snowicane." Jay is totally knocked out with a nasty flu virus and I let Honey Bea fall asleep in my lap as a treat and because I was exhausted. The snowicane doesn't seem to be happening which is great because my roof crapped his pants when he heard the weather report this morning.

The Pregnant One

I cannot say that I have been sampling much of what Philly has to offer lately (or Media where I moved 2 months ago) because I am super pregnant.

However, I can tell you that I just moved from Queen Village in Philly and I loved it and miss it. It is a neighborhood with block parties, a sometime secret rave that I was clearly too old to attend and sweet neighbors who have block parties and always remember your puppy's name. On my street alone you could see the Mummers parade by, enjoy the best chinese food in town and frequent a real neighborhood book store or pediatrician. The ladies could rock a one-piece jumpsuit, the dads only strolled their kids in Phil and Ted's and the dogs were welcome at the coffee shop.
