Rudders at Home

Check out the snow we’re getting here, and it’s still snowing! I haven’t seen this much snow in six years. While I don’t envy the folks back home all the cold and snow they get on a regular basis in the winter, it is nice to finally see some of it here!

I might also mention that this amount of snow causes havoc over here. It’s difficult to cope in the South of England as they just simply aren’t prepared for this much snow. All of my trains were suspended this morning and buses also weren’t running so I have had the luxury of being able to work from home. As it’s still snowing here, it will be interesting to see how things are running tomorrow.

Just look at all the snow coming down here. One might be mistaken for thinking they’re in Pennsylvania right about now…

I can only guess what my trains will be like tomorrow morning.

Paul’s birthday has come and gone, but it seems we’re still celebrating here in the Rudders household. Not only did the old man in the house get the robot he’s been pining over (now I just need to sit back and wait for him to build my robot butler…), but he got a special meal and birthday cake tonight.

I made him the Perfect Party Cake, from Dorie Greenspan’s book. And boy was it yummy. It also meant I got to you use my lovely cake stand that I got for my birthday last year.

It was lovely. So lovely in fact, that the birthday boy had two, rather large pieces. At this rate, there won’t be any for him to have tomorrow.

Aren’t you a happy boy! And one year older! I hope you enjoyed your weekend away!

It’s empty. 🙁 Perhaps someone can send me another care package?
