We’d been basically stuck at home for the past few days via snow and stupid cold temperatures. Somehow pizza sounded pretty good for dinner tonight.
Love those olives
Alfredo sauce and bacon strips!
The car was a challenge to get the doors open, wipers free and 10 inches of snow removed. But with our son’s help we got it dug out. It needed to get started anyway, so our son picked up our online order at Papa Johns. Yummy and a nice break from cooking at home.
Sometimes Nature shows us that things can be better in two’s.
A thousand year old sandstone statue of Ganesha, son of Shiva
This statue is about 3 feet tall
Information panel next to Ganesha statue
This stature, as the panel states, is from Central India, most probably from year 730 to 1119, representing the Pala period. It is on display at Newfields Indianapolis Museum of Art.
Yesterday we decided to watch some funny clips on YouTube. One of those was the classic Abbott and Costello bit “Who’s on First?” Considered by many to be the funniest eight minutes in comedy history.
If you have never seen this skit, then by all means check it out. If you’ve seen it before, refresh your memory. You will laugh out loud.
This Egyptian vessel has survived for over 5000 years. It is amazing that you can still observe it close up in the Newfields museum in Indianapolis.
This pot is about 14 inches tall
This artifact is identified in a museum information label as a Nagada II Vessel, titled Flamingos. It is dated 3400-3200 B.C. The pictures of the flamingos and the geometric lines are typical of other pots of the same vintage.
We had a bunny cross the yard yesterday
The 2022 season at Indy’s beloved dinner theater has a Tony Award winning musical opening next week. Their press release proudly states: Kinky Boots, the Tony Award-winner for Best Musical, struts onto the Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre stage for the first time in 2022, featuring music by Cyndi Lauper and a heartwarming tale that’s based on a true story. Opening Feb. 10, this high-heeled hit will bring plenty of sparkle to Beef & Boards’ 49th Season!
This vibrant musical not only won the Best Musical Tony, but also Best Original Score for the talented music and lyrics by Cyndi Lauper, along with four additional Tony Awards, and the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theatre Album.
Kinky Boots is on stage for 47 performances through March 27 in the intimate space of Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre. Tickets include the dinner buffet and select beverages. For tickets, visit beefandboards.com or call the box office at 317.872.9664.
We are so looking forward to seeing this marvelous show. The pandemic stifled so many months of B&B’s productions. It will seem like finally getting to go to visit a dear friend when we see Kinky Boots next week.
The snow is over. Now things get cold. Really cold.

The sun popped out this morning! The sunlight looks warm but the temperatures won’t allow much if any melting today. The forecast high was 22, and that is what it is already. The low overnight tonight will be -2 according to the NWS. So far the first temperatures above freezing will be next Wednesday. Hey, at least the city plowed the street this morning.
The snow continues in central Indiana. It has pretty much been nonstop since 8:30AM this morning. Blowing and drifting is occurring on E/W roads.

Time will tell how much more snow we’ll get before the snow moves out of the state. Currently most everything in Indy is closed, and most all schools are closed for in person learning. Some schools will have remote classes on Friday. Some schools are reporting that they will actually have a true “Snow Day” with the kids completely off.
