Hello Kitty Popcorn Maker: assembly required, parental supervision suggested, takes dollar bills but isn’t for sale. Unlike the home version, this is not a toy. It makes 3 quarts of fresh, delicious popcorn at the shake of four bucks. Comes with a built-in butter well and is the size of a soda machine. Available at fine stores everywhere.
Pop-oneth.
Several chickens decided they were “over it” and left us late Thursday evening. The greeting they received early this morning was a lovely wake up call. Ha. For the rest of us here in Maryville, it’s 7 and feels like minus 2! A warming trend is expected today – all the way to 24. Whoa.
At 5:30 a.m. it was minus 10 in Cleveland, minus 6 in Detroit and minus 11 in Chicago. Right now it’s cold. Meanwhile in the middle of the Pacific it’s 74 in Kona. Ahhhh.
Onward … in western upstate New York, meteorologist Dave Sage said areas near Lake Erie were getting “hit pretty hard” by snow Friday morning. Some areas were getting up to 2 inches per hour. The National Weather Service predicted the subzero temperatures would persist into the weekend. Wind chill warnings were in effect over much of five states advising the cold and strong winds could lead to hypothermia, frost bite and death.
“When you have these cold temperatures, it doesn’t take very long for skin to freeze,” National Weather Service meteorologist Rod Donavon said. Iowa City hospitals had treated three people for cold-related injuries by midday Thursday, said University of Iowa Hospitals spokesman Tom Moore. Overnight temperatures there reached minus 24 degrees. Even more burr-burr. ADVICE: bundle up, wear layers, and drink plenty of fluids during the day so you can consume multiple rum toddies this evening. March oneth.
