Yeah I'm a total cheapskate, resent paying more for things than I have too. I have to really want something not to look for an alternative.
Went to treat us the other day and then thought NO, we'll go buy a bar of chocolate and a punnet of Strawberries, better than one bite each however nice.

Nasty. We've got heavy showers, wind and freezing had hailstones last night but just rain today and lots of it.

*coughs* chocolate sauce *coughs*
You need a fondue pot with a little candle under it to keep the contents warm. Angel Food cake is good cut into cubes and dunked too. As are other fruits cut up.
It's romantic even.

The chocolate sauce if made in a small pot on the stove keeps well, forming a thin crust on top. You just reheat it and throw in another blob of butter and more vanilla. Family of 5 took at least a week to kill one pot full.

No, no - when I make the patented 'Charis Sauce' I keep wandering into the kitchen with a spoon until it's gone. and often catching hubby already there ;)

*SMILES* Tummy loving sauce.

How do you both not get sick from the sweet? That has to be put over something. It's like meat to japanese/chinese food, a flavoring.

A quick nibble isn't too sickly or a sneakily dipped mallow ;)

Today the temperature got above freezing and the streets cleared. We went grocery shopping.
Now we wait until morning to see how much snow and possibly sleet we'll get overnight and prophesied through the first part of the day before it all melts away the second part of the day.
If it's bad we may be having a delayed start and if it's really bad we have a 3rd Snow Day which isn't planned into the school year.
*evil grin* Parents want their kids in school. On FaceBook there's a posting that says that during Snow Days parents discover that teachers really aren't paid enough.

We keep getting promised/threatened snow but not seen any, further up hill has seen a little but here we're to close to the sea and industry to get a lot.

Yep great hols but not a job just anyone can do.

Hailstones? How big? Your roof alright?

[mee-eep.livejournal.com]

Tiny. our hailstones are nothing like a bad as what you've described, these were pin-pricks but came down hard.

*snickers* We call our pin-prick sized hail sleet.

[mee-eep.livejournal.com]

Hmm I don't know the specific differences, had to actually think about it ;)

I think of sleet as being mushier, tiny ice that can sting but generally turns slushy on contact, more like a rain shower.
Hail being a little (or a lot) bigger than that and remain hard until they melt, come down in a storm.

What we've had lately probably falls between the two. Never seen what you've described, we don't get your extremes of weather.
We get worse but nothing that would cause notable damage in these here parts ;)
