And to think I was excited about a measley quarter inch of snow (see previous post)! I could hardly believe my eyes when the snow began to accumulate on the streets of Boston. Big snow flakes wafted through the sky as I sat at my desk at work, and before I knew it, the entire city was covered in a sparkling white blanket! People left early for work and cars were caught in gridlock for hours....luckily, however, I don't have a car. (: So I walked from work to the subway and got a chance to romp through the growing mounds of snow.
All the while, I could only think of my once-beloved dessert, the snow cone--It was as if a shaved ice machine got caught in the on position! And a beautiful quiet calm accompanied the snow, as the cars slowed and the sounds of the city were absorbed into the white. It was all so lovely. Well, until it melted.
