It’s gonna snow tonight Coming down on the ground Coming out of the sky While I eat Goulash In my house warmly lit In my house cozy and dry The tang on my tongue Tastes delightful and sharp Tastes delightful and hot It warms my insides Courses hot to my veins Courses hot to that chilled spot There was a thaw today Covering ice on the roads Covering ice on the paths I think of driving tomorrow No real need go out No real need to hurry up fast Weatherman says there's snow tonight I’ll just savor my Goulash and write Stay in my house with fire lit light Because, you know, it’s gonna snow tonight - Alison |

It's raining here... and I'm not complaining because we need it! *S* I was running the AC this morning... now I'm smiling at your evening plans. *S* |

Dear Alison, you have my full attention and I am in the mood to taste some fine goulash and to look out the window and watch the snow fall for the whole night ... I enjoyed this so much, it is totally after my heart, beautifully written and captivating. Love and warm hugs. Margherita  |

Nice write Alison! I was just thinking the same thing. Oh that goulash sounds good. We have snow and ice right now temp not expected to get above the current 27 degrees today, and tomorrow a repeat performance. Can you email me a bowl of that goulash? Heeeheeee.... JL Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself. |

fine 'slice of life' Impressionism! unseasonably warm/rainy conditions in these ancient 'endless' mountains of 'ol Applachia. |

It nice how snow just reminds us that life "can" wait sometimes... and you seem to have found a way to enjoy those moments to the fullest. Enjoyable read. Michael |

Thank you all. The Goulash is gone. The fire is still dancing. My feet are cold. My nose is pink. Temperatures are dipping below -20 tonight. I am not as in love with winter as I once was. I have to go plug in my car. xoxoxo Alison |

Would have liked my share of the goulash, along with everyone else!! Would like to be there just for the photo-ops you'll have - but not all winter . j. |

mmmmm...that goulash sounds good, especially when it's cold. Sounds like you're in for some nasty weather. When I was young I loved the snow, As we get older it seems to loose some of it' charm. Ida |
