This was the view from my studio at a bit after 4:30 PM this afternoon. It was a very pretty consolation prize for the lack of sunshine/daylight. Darkness at 5:15 PM is making me into (more of) a hermit. At least I have the solstice to look forward to since the days get longer, in theory at least, after that day. We had a few inches of snow today with it tapering off early this afternoon. The driveway isn't plowed yet and it is 20 degrees F outside right now. The contents of the mail box are going to wait until morning unless the plow guys show up soon.
I had a productive day of teleworking and ate the last of DH's yummy chicken and sausage jambalaya for lunch. I am preparing for a work trip to Philadelphia next week. The week is going to be pretty jam-packed with work so my first visit to the City of Brotherly Love won't have much time for sight-seeing or fiber shopping. However, just in case, I'm accepting food and/or fiber recommendations. :D
Eat food and find fiber. That's my advice.

I can't help you w/ Philadelphia - I've spent two precious weeks of my life there, trapped in the Wharton School of Management studying my brains out with no opportunity to go anywhere. Can you tell I'm bitter?
I love your sunset.

Wave southward while you're there and I'll wave back. And yes, lovely sunset.

Snow is so beautiful when it is elsewhere. We hit a low of 0 degrees Celsius (freezing) lastnight and had our first skim of frost on the puddles.
Enjoy your trip.

Beautiful sunset. Being a foodie, you should really try & go to Reading Terminal Market. So many delish & regional foods to eat. I believe there is a yarn shop called Loop, but not certain. I know you'll be googling before your trip. Philly is an awesome city.

That is pretty, my skies never wait for Saturday, as the weekends here seem always to be rainy this time of year.

Beautiful sunset Angie! I love that you're working in your studio. WEAVE!!!
Philly. Hmmmm... go to South Street. Funky and fun and lots of cute little shops and restaurants. When I was 13, I got a cammo skirt and combat boots there. Yeah. I was a freak.* Ummm... crap! There was this really good Middle Eastern restaurant that I used to dance at ... I'll have to look up the name. I can see the place... I just can't remember... and it's not that far off of South Street. I'll have to get some stuff together.
*I know... was a freak... I still am. Shut up
xoxo
Happy Friday!

Oh, my, wasn't that gorgeous? It was just as beautiful in my neck of the woods. Wish I had your wide-open view, though. Have a good trip.

Lovely photo.
I still say you get Wilson to make the kitties go-carts, so they can get the mail. Just think of the video you'll be able to post. :D

Beautiful sunset photo! It's been cold in Wisconsin! I better knit a hat for myself before visiting over the holidays. Have a good trip!
