Winter storm Jonas is making his most unwelcome presence felt here in Mississippi. Last week we had high temps near 70 F and now we're having wind chills in the teens. We actually has a few snow flurries here in the middle part of the state and a couple inches in the Northern part. Although the real temps are slightly above freezing the wind chill makes it what I call "ass biting cold"!
I'm settling down with "comfort food". I try to limit my consumption of canned, prepared crap but I saw Hormel chili w/ beans on sale for 69 cents a can so fetched home a half dozen. Each can of chunky style has 90% of a day's sodium, hot has 88% and regular has 82%. I usually eat at least one can at a sitting so for filler I'm serving each helping over a bed of plain white rice. I've got to "gut load" on warm, filling stuff and I can think of few things better than that than rice. Spuds are great for carbohydrate loading so I'll probably make hash brown taters for my other meal of the day. I know I should spread out my calorie intake over 3 meals a day but I picked up some cashews to keep me energized through the night shift.
I don't know what weather any of you reading this may be having but I pray God watches over you all now and always.
Ducks & geese for world peace!
