Good morning ! My wife, Mary, works third shift, which allows us to spend mornings together. She generally cooks us breakfast, too ! Today she made pancakes FROM A CAN ! Seriously, I didn't know these existed, but there she was, squirting pancake batter out of a whipped-cream-style can onto the griddle. They weren't bad, but how wierd ! 

We are really enjoying this unseasonably warm weather. We expected a brutal winter, but how many serious snowfalls have we had ? 2 ? Lovin it !
