So it is entirely possible that I could see a sign of Spring's arrival, which is what Imbolc is all about. The snow is melting like mad and I see a lot of grass which is crazy for this region. But I myself am not crazy so I am not even going to go looking for a groundhog. We are sure to get massive cold and snow before this winter is over.<br />
<br />
I am glad January is over. Never have I liked January (though I like the 13th because that is when our beloved son-in-law was born). Other than that, what is to like about January? It is usually cold, snowy, cloudy, a little depressing after the holidays. And what would possess anyone to make resolutions! Summer is very very far away, and the longings for porch life and fresh gardens are almost painful.<br />
<br />
But it is Imbolc and there may not be physical signs; the Spirit of Spring warms the heart and mind.<br />

I Am Here!! Really!!Happy 2016!! Does anyone remember me at all? It's been a long road, but here I am! Ready to jump back into the Blog-o-Sphere and try, try, try to reconnect with all my wonderful friends here. Missed everyone very much.<br />
<br />
First things first!! My dearest husband is doing well now and is adjusting to this life after more than two years of abdominal surgeries and botched surgeries, and long hospital stays and long recovery times. But it looks like he has finally reached the stage that he won't need more surgeries and all will be eventually normal and healthy. Takes a long time to get back to normal and healthy, but he is 90% there. Yay!!<br />
<br />
I was having health problems too, but after a lot of physical therapy, I am much much better...advanced arthritis in my neck, but doing fine.<br />
<br />
The rest of my family is thriving and happy and we had a wonderful gathering over the holidays.<br />
<br />
And now here is 2016 and I expect it to be fantastic, healthy, happy, interesting, and fun.<br />
<br />
Will you join me??<br />
<br />
Bright Blessings to you all. Robin<br />

Pain and numbness in left arm caused by a neck issue. So off to physical therapy for the next month. I am unable to type very well; but hoping to be off the d/l soon.<br />

I missed St Patrick's Day in the blog-o-sphere so here is my belated greeting:<br />

(just so you know, in the interest of full disclosure, I looked up what Pi is. I knew it's usually written as 3.14, but had no recollection from school days as to what it means; I am thinking I am not the only one.)<br />

So I think it is worth noting. And possibly baking a pie as well. After all, a pie is a circle, so you could go ahead and calculate the Pi of pie before eating it. Yummm!<br />

There are many superstitions surrounding the number 13. There are people who are outright phobic of the number 13. <br />
<br />

For me 13 holds a strong positive power. The number 3 is quite prevalent in magickal workings, in a very good way. Don't let it scare you.<br />

There was a strange, but wonderful occurrence yesterday. First the thermometer rose past the freezing mark. Then, there was a large yellow round thing in the sky. Spreading light everywhere. Wow. Sun. Sunshine. Naturally one immediately contracted Spring Fever. We are supposed to have a repeat today. Like the John Denver song, "sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy".<br />

This weather makes me want to get all crazy and start decorating for Ostara! Ostara!!! Yay, next week we celebrate the Spring Equinox! Time to get those rabbits, chicks, eggs out of the storage container. Wait. Wait. Before I can decorate, I have to clean. Drat. Drat, Spring Cleaning. Oh, well.<br />

I'll just get out my brooms.</div>

Pyewacket here. No good deed goes unpunished. All I wanted to do was to keep my Mom company. Really. I had no idea what those black cords on the table were for. I thought Mom had put some fun strings to play with there for me. Because she know how much I love strings and such.<br />
<br />
Is it my fault that her box of sound and pictures got stuck to those wires? Is it my fault that I am a lovable and fun guy who likes to play tag with my sister. Can I be held responsible for causing my Mom to say bad words when the blinking box sort of slid kinda off the table?<br />

An 8 year old girl has a murder of crows that visit her yard, and she keeps her bird feeders full. The crows, in turn, bring her gifts. Little trinkets, buttons, paper clips, tiny bits of metal, shiny things. Anything they come across. It is a wondrous act of Nature. Crows are so intelligent. I see them by the side of road, usually in threes. Often I wonder what are they doing and thinking about. To read more about girl and the crow, click on this link <a href="http://www.boredpanda.com/8-year-old-girl-gets-gifts-from-crows-gabi-mann/">Gift giving Crows</a>. You can also Google "girl and crows" and there are quite a few stories about this. Isn't this fantastic?<br />

And the synonym of "forth" makes bloggers happy because one gets to make a play on words. So march forth you all and enjoy March Fourth. Sorry, I can't come up with a funny pun.<br />

Shhhhh, it's 30 degrees F right now. Can't believe it.<br />

I have a movie recommendation. If you don't mind reading captions, this is a good movie. Not an Academy Award winner by any means, but an enjoyable way to spend some time. A couple of years ago I recommended a Norwegian film, "Troll Hunter" which had been recommended by a lovely friend, blogger Jeanne <a href="http://wildwoodsartstudio.blogspot.com/">Candy Corn Chronicles blog</a> (and I loved it!). The movie I watched last night is also Norwegian. These two films showcase the spectacular landscape of Norway. Truly breathtaking. <a href="http://xn--ragnarok%20%28gten%20ragnarok%29-xzc/">Ragnarok (Gåten Ragnarok)</a>, is a fun little movie with a typically formulaic plot, but has a couple of cute kids, a 1,000 year old secret, a pretty good monster and of course, the aforementioned scenery. Sometimes the captions were not quite in sync with the dialog, not giving enough time to read. But that is a little minor thing. I loved listening to the Norwegian voices. Give it a try.<br />

What about you? Hilarious "controversy" over a dress posted on the internet by a Scottish woman. Because of the rods and cones in our eyes and reflection of light and other scientific mumbo jumbo, people either see the dress as a blue and black color or a white and gold color. The dress actually is blue and black, which is astonishing when some of us see white and gold. What an uproar, though, practically broke the internet!!<br />

Very happy was I to turn the page of the calendar. And only 18 days til Ostara, The Spring Equinox. Wahoo!!<br />

<br />
Small confession: I was a sci-fi nerd in the 60's. Actually I started reading sci-fi books when I was 9 years old (the same year I started drinking coffee). The news of Leonard Nimoy's passing was saddening. Was he not the greatest thing to happen on tv way back then?! To watch old reruns now, <b><i>Star Trek</i></b> looks a little cheesy, but when I was watching first run episodes, that show was amazing. Mr. Nimoy was one of the good ones.<br />

<br />
Speaking of looking back in time, I got very nostalgic on Sunday. For some reason, I was listening to music on You Tube and got into a marathon of Crosby Stills and Nash. Good grief those songs take me back. <b><i>Southern Cross, Helplessly Hoping, Guinnevere;</i></b> that music can send you into the memories of good times and not so good times. I think we all have those soundtracks to our lives. I had to stop listening after a while to avoid becoming a bit too maudlin.<br />

What a crazy month for weather here. March better behave itself and begin a fast trek to Spring. I'm just sayin'.<br />
<br />
My husband has begun his trip back to complete physical normalcy. He had Phase 1 this week of preliminary testing to prepare for what we hope is the last surgery. He has been dealing with an ileostomy for many months now, and after a few more tests the surgeon will be scheduling the "reconnect" (of his small intestine). And then, he will be done with this over-two-year tribulation. Thankfully and at long last!!<br />
<br />
Thoughts are turning to the blooms of Spring. Looking for color! The landscape is bleak and harsh right now. Those blackish snow banks everywhere. Won't it be wonderful when bulbs burst into full flower!!<br />

My reading marathon continues. My son keeps busy shoveling and clearing the cars of snow. Hubby is working daily and we all enjoy the woodstove and the fireplace. The cats love the warmth, but our dog Gwennie gets scared by the popping and sparking of the fire. I guess it is too much like fireworks on Independence Day, poor little thing!<br />
<br />
Keep safe and cozy. Robin.<br />

It is almost becoming ridiculous how much snow we have. And the sub-zero temps. That is all we can talk about.<br />

Occasionally, for 30 seconds or so, there is a little tiny spot in the sky where the sun wants to peek out. But if you blink, you will miss it.<br />

Surprisingly, only minor symptoms of cabin fever because there is a lot to keep occupied with inside. (watching snowplows go by, and the son out there with shovel and snowblower are mildly interesting).<br />

It's Mardi Gras. A tradition in my family for many a long while is to eat pancakes for dinner on Mardi Gras.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="320" src="http://sav-cdn.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/superphoto/editorial/images/savannah/mdControlled/cms/2010/02/12/562349157.jpg" width="256" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
En francais, Mardi Gras means Fat Tuesday of course.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
How about a stack of these babies:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="150" src="http://www.thepiebelle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/IMG_2251.jpg" width="200" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If one were following the traditional religious reason for eating pancakes on Fat Tuesday, one would stuff as many carbo-laden pancakes as possible into one's mouth in preparation for fasting on Ash Wednesday.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="228" src="http://www.grainchain.com/Recipes/images/sweet-mini-pancakes.jpg" width="320" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
But who needs a reason? Everyday could be pancake day as far as I am concerned.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="291" src="http://peewee.com/log/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Kensington-Academy-of-English-640x582.jpg" width="320" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So get in the race and get those flapjacks flapping, those frying pans griddlin' and whip up a batch of delicious pancakes (guilt-free I assure you). You don't mess with tradition.</div>

Pixie has a good viewing spot for watching the birds at the feeder, and the squirrels that sneak and lurk.<br />
<br />
Monday has dawned sunny. Blindingly bright. Reflecting off the mounds and peaks of snow. The arctic temperatures remain way below zero. Despite the cold, I can hear the sparrows that live in the eaves of our covered porch chattering happily away. Amazing how they can survive.<br />

Yesterday before the weather deteriorated I scurried to the grocery store. As soon as you enter the store, you are bombarded by mega displays of Valentine offerings...flowers, candy, balloons and random heart-shaped items. I did actually, purchase the heart-shaped strawberry shortcake and 6 chocolate dipped strawberries. Very delicious. But I drew the line at this heart-shaped item:<br />

Nothing to be scared of. Witches love the number 13. There is power in that number. So enjoy the day.<br />
<br />
As if Nature wanted to celebrate the day, at 8:00 a.m. this morning the thermometer read minus 13. Yes, -13 degrees F. The icicles have icicles.<br />
<br />
I don't think I will be venturing out today. Okay, call me a wuss. I readily admit to a dislike of breathing arctic air; searing my sinuses and freezing my eyes. All the schools here are closed because of the cold. Wind chill factors are way down there.<br />

It is tremendous to see blue sky and sunshine. It's cold, but that is alright with the sun shining.<br />
<br />
Having been perked up by the elusive rays of the sun, I decided it would be a great time to make some cookies for afternoon tea.<br />
<br />
And oatmeal cookies sprang to mind. I have a great recipe from my mom.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GHcNENEE-B0/VNun-7ucv1I/AAAAAAAAGAQ/dKMDz7qNYX4/s1600/20150211_133554.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GHcNENEE-B0/VNun-7ucv1I/AAAAAAAAGAQ/dKMDz7qNYX4/s1600/20150211_133554.jpg" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
<br />
I think it is time to re-copy this recipe. Unfortunately a good many of my recipe cards look like this. I tend to be a messy baker. A lot of my recipe cards are over 30 years old, and are looking a little worse for the wear. Sounds like a good project for the next Antarctic blast of air and weather.<br />
<br />

<br />
When I mix up a batch of "whatever", I always stir "deosil" (jo-zil) otherwise known as clockwise. I do this while thinking positive thoughts, thinking of love and light and pleasant things, of healing. It is so automatic after all these years. I definitely have a Witchy kitchen. During a waning Moon, I will stir "widdershins" (counterclockwise) and thinking about removing negativity, sending away bad thoughts, sending away illness, or whatever bad stuff might be hanging around.<br />

<br />
Oatmeal cookies remind me of winter days when I was growing up. Fresh batches appeared regularly on the kitchen counter at home. These days, I think about my daughter who loves, loves, loves oatmeal cookies. Hi raethan!! Sorry you can't be here to eat these yummy cookies.<br />
