So, in such a situation, what do you do other than cuddle
together and make hearty meals?

Did y'all make anything special when you are stuck inside?

Seems we have some food rules around our house.  Cold weather (We expect
your cold weather to hit Georgia tomorrow) is the only time we get to eat
chili.  I also make Chicken Pot Pie, pot roast, homemade macaroni&cheese.

Tomorrow I am going to braise a pork loin in sauerkraut and shredded apples
with 1 trouch of brown sugar, caraway and celery seed.  My
grandmother-in-law then makes dumplings to simmer in the resultant pan
liquor plus a bit of white wine.  Pennsylvania Dutch goodness.

beef, then goulyas)
