Day 25 - Snow Day Sweets

Guess what? Another snow day! Vinny got to stay home and though we love the time together, business wise it’s not ideal. So, after our morning coffee and completing some household tasks, he was trying to figure out how to work from home but it was practically impossible in his line of work. After he got a few things done, I asked him to come with me to get something for my days’ intention.

We made a quick run to the nearby Dunkin Donuts. I picked out 2 of my favorite doughnuts (Vanilla Crème with powdered sugar on top). Today, they were in the shapes of hearts, obviously due to the upcoming holiday but it was a great touch for our day nonetheless. I love small surprises like that!

Heather was born and raised in Chicago and the one thing I never remember her saying is that she missed the winters. I would say that I wished I could have all the seasons but she loved the Arizona sun and heat. Snow usually isn’t as enjoyable to adults as it is from the perspective of a kid. They get to play in the snow, get days called off from school and so on.

Vinny is originally from Boston so does not marvel at the snow the way I do either. As we left, I asked him to stop and just look at the snow. It was so beautiful, almost angelic as each unique snowflake gracefully danced and glided to the ground. He chuckled at my bliss but surely obliged for a moment. We brought our doughnuts home and after a lovely brunch, toasted to a sweet treat on a beautiful snow day.
