Snow Day

As we are experiencing a snow storm here in northeast Ohio, it brings to mind a way to really save yourself some time. If you live in an area where you get snow storms, keep a container of milk and a loaf of bread in your freezer. Make sure you get milk that has a screw-on top (not the pop off type). Before you freeze the milk, pour out a little so it has room to freeze and expand without splitting the container. Also, keep on hand some "emergency foods" that you constantly replenish. This way, you don't need to join the long lines at the grocery store when snow is forecast. When we lived in Maryland, these lines sometimes reached from the front of the store to the back! Ugh!
