Snow!!!!

We woke up this morning to snow on the ground, and a tempurature of 23 degrees. The man that helps Jimmy with the lawn, Farmer John, says this is going to be a coooooold winter. He bases this on when the lawn grass starts to slow its growth, which this year occurred three weeks earlier than normal. I don't know if he is right or not, but Aunt Gayle read that our winter is supposed to be a cold one. Farmer John may have 5o years of experience with Colorado winters, but if Aunt Gayle says it, it must be true.

In honor of the first day of snow I am going to make Crock Pot Cake that I found on the blog I am addicted to.

I'll let you know how it turns out!

And now I present the Crockpot Cake Recipe. Only, promise me you'll douse it with real cream. Not that fake stuff all whipped up ready for consumption, I mean straight from-the-udder cream.
1 package chocolate cake mix
1 container of sour cream (8 oz)
1 cup chocolate morsels
1 cup water
4 eggs
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 package instant chocolate pudding mix
Spray crock pot with nonstick cooking spray. Mix cake mix, sour cream, chocolate morsels, water, egss, oil and pudding mix in a bowl by hand. Pour into crock pot. Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours or high 3-4 hours. Makes about 12 servings.
