Sweetfern, Comptonia peregrina, is neither sweet nor a fern. It looks like something the dinosaurs would have walked through, releasing the warmest, spiciest aromas of imagination.
No alternative, chores to be done! I wear a visor cap to keep snow out of my eyes and a scarf over my head like a 1950s movie star, to keep snow from falling down the back of my neck. It works, mostly :)

DeleteBrrrr. But so pretty. I bet it's slippery too.

DeleteThat is a beautiful boatload of snow. So nice to look at, so difficult for doing the chores...

That's it in a nutshell. I always agree when people say how beautiful snow looks, and I almost never add "if you don't have to do anything in it" ;)
