What a great weekend we had planned! A good friend completed
her nursing program and we finally had the time to go over the mountains to
Sacramento for a celebration. I drove into Reno to bring Mary home for
pet-sitting. Instead of sunshine on the way home, this is what we encountered.
The dark clouds looked so ominous!
The forecast for lots of snow ended the plans to drive over
Donner Summit.
Instead, we incorporated Plan B for our weekend. We’re going to cook
and bake some of the yummy items we’ve encountered in the blogs we love to read.
The snow could not decide if it wanted to cover our yard or
not.
Cinnamon rolls, ravioli, cookies, and freezable mashed
potatoes are high on today’s list. I’m
glad we made a backup activity to ease the disappointment of a cancelled trip.
What do you do when your carefully planned events are postponed?
Good thing you had a plan B! I almost always have a plan B but I don't usually make one for big trips. I guess it's time to change that.
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling when weather changes your plans. Sounds like you guys took a bad and turned it into a good - making recipes from blogs and pinterest sounds like fun.
ReplyDeleteThat cinnamon bun looks so good! At least you can still see that lawn! I am 5 feet deep over here.
ReplyDeleteThe way this weather has been, you always need a plan b. You guys seem to have a had a great day!
ReplyDeleteWeather does change plans. Was planning to pick up granddaughter, but that changed.
ReplyDeleteIt's always good to not get upset when plans don't go the way they are supposed to. Plan B can be even more fun!
ReplyDeleteWhen our plans are cancelled we get back into our pajamas and find a movie to watch. Sometimes cancelled plans are a relief.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a great plan B. My plan B is to stay inside and catch up on movies or books.
ReplyDeleteFor our plan b this year, we ended up making tasty snow drinks! It was fun!
ReplyDeleteHaving a plan b is always a good idea! Sometimes the weather just refuses to let us have our way LOL.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great 'Plan B' it's snowing right now here too! I'm super over this snow already and want to hop the next plane to a sandy beach and just escape for awhile!

I know what you mean. In Texas we got over 2 inches of snow with ice underneath - ruined my whole weekend plans. Us Texans do not drive in that!!
ReplyDeleteI've been to Donner Summit and it's really neat (and kinda sad, but it's history). Hopefully you'll get to go sometime. So glad you were able to make the most out of your plans despite the weather!
ReplyDeleteI am the Queen of Plan B. When things go awry, I gather the kids and bake, make hot chocolate or watch movies.
ReplyDeleteI always like to have a plan b as well. Looks like you had a yummy time!
ReplyDeleteplan b seems to be the way to go lately. the weather has been messing up our plans tons the past few weeks
