60 days until spring. The big weather story today is the extreme cold. It will be in the single digits tonight coupled with a Gale Warning which will send the feel like temps into the minus figures. Today cousin #2 will come and do her usual. On Wednesday the contractor will come and do the inside work. It's too bad outside to do the outside work. I had to change my Thursday doctor's appointment to February 5. I hope the weather cooperates. There will be no Meals on Wheels delivery today due to Martin Luther King Jr. Day; so cousin #2 will make me a frozen pizza. YUM Breakfast - Healthy Choice Chicken Margherita with Balsamic Lunch - Corn dogs, veggie poppables, yogurt Dessert/Snack - Granola bar Dinner - Veggie poppables What did you eat yesterday?

@LindaOHio It sounds like something G.I.s would order at a bar.

@LindaOHio — something awful. Medication, combining liquid lidocaine and Maalox. It’s for gastrointestinal issues (hence the “GI cocktail”).

What is a GI cocktail? Or don't I want to know?

I don’t think I’ve ever tried a corn dog. What is it exactly?

It is a weiner with a corn bread coating and fried I think. I'm not sure if they're ever baked unless frozen from the grocery store.

@LindaOHio I would imagine kosher is doable, since they don't usually have cheese.

It's so good. Michele has given you a description. You can buy them frozen at the grocery store. I don't know if they're Kosher though.

We've had a little snow during the night here and may have more this afternoon. We're at 13F right now according to the forecast on my phone. I have an ophthalmologist appointment this morning so will need to get moving soon to make it on time. The high today is supposed to reach 25F by late this afternoon. I've already rescheduled once due to the weather and, while I hate driving in the cold and snow, don't want to reschedule again. I just want to get the appointment over and done. I ate a sausage, egg and cheese croissant with a fiber brownie yesterday for breakfast, ate some homemade chicken, broccoli and cheese soup for lunch and wasn't feeling my best by supper time last night so didn't eat anything. (I'm feeling much better this morning and will need to eat something after I take my morning meds around 5 am.)

It's going to be below zero one night this week. The coldest winter I can remember was about 30 years ago. This one is right up there.

What day do you class as the start of Spring? Here in the UK, we have two dates: meteorological Spring and astronomical Spring. The 1st is something the weather people created and starts on March 1st. The one I tend to stick to, is when the Spring Equinox is, which I think is March 20th this year.

@Aquitaine24 On that day the Earth's axis is not tilted toward or away from the sun, causing roughly an equal amount of sunlight and dark hours at all latitudes.

We are in the deep freeze here in Florida, and a friend told me there was some snow in Georgia. I had eggs and sausage and cheese and bacon in the morning and later I like frozen buttermilk pancakes topped with pork sausage patties and cheese. Also ice cream and ding dongs,

Yes, it's been extremely cold here too. I always worry about freezing pipes and leaks when the temps drop into the teens. The wind definitely adds to the chill! I had some leftover lasagna. Yummy!

That's a cute meme. I opened up the cupboard doors under the kitchen sink so that the warm air gets in there; and I run the water occasionally. Lasagna sounds good.
