The temperature in Fife hasn’t got above freezing for days now and we’ve had snow all week, which wouldn’t be so bad on its own but when all the ruts and footprints ice over it makes for an interesting walk for the Guardian in the morning! The garden looks quite pretty though.
Next week it’s supposed to be very mild for the time of year again, but it does mean that I should be able to get to some far-flung shops, something I really need to do.

Your garden looks lovely in all that snow!
Stefanie,
Thanks, I’m just happy that our snow doesn’t hang around for nearly as long as yours!
That is a lovely photo of snow in your garden.
tracybham,
Thanks, it’s now almost all gone and it’s a bit boggy now.
That’s just beautiful…I have to admit to being just a tad envious of the magic of snow.
Paula,
I enjoy looking out at the snow but I’m not so keen on actually being out in it nowadays!
Hi Katrina,
I really love the photo of your very wintry garden. How tranquil–knowing that there’s nothing for you to do out there but just gaze upon it! I do hope the weather improved so you could shop.
I did a HUGE shop today and it was exhausting, because the supermarket was so crowded and some items were already out of stock. But I think I managed to get enough to get us through the next coming storm catastrophe. (!) đŸ™‚
I made it to the library in the city we shop in (Glens Falls, New York), and got lots of books to make it through to just after the New Year.
Best wishes for preparing for Christmas!
Judith,
It sounds like you are well organised for Christmas, plenty of food and books. Even if you do get loads of snow you can just ‘coorie doon’ and enjoy it! Yes earlier this week we had a thaw and the snow has gone so we were able to get out to the shops to get the last minute stuff. I now feel quite relaxed!
