Chicken Soup

Stopped at the overlook today

 on the way home from Grantsville this afternoon 

and took this picture.  

It's about 3 miles up the road from our house.

Another very cold morning so no outside walking for me.  Back down to the basement for my walk.  I go down the first thing in the morning just as if I was walking outside.  This morning I walked 4 miles and then in the afternoon I walked another 2 miles.
I have 6 piles of blocks with 4 in each pile.  One block represents 500 steps and after every 500 steps I move a block and when a pile is done I have walked 1 mile.  Here I've walked 4 miles with 2 left to go.  It seems to go by faster if I do it this way.  I have tried walked on a treadmill and just don't like it.  This works best for me if I can't go outside.

I made some bread this morning and put some chicken in the slow cooker for Chicken Noodle Soup for supper tonight.

Did a few things around the house and then we went out to do a few errands.
Worked on the latest puzzle a bit.  Always have one out during the winter months.

Dropped off a book at the library and got the next one to read for the book club.

Not many birds around the feeders lately except for the crows which I like to watch but today a downy woodpecker stopped by.

This afternoon it started snowing again and it's still coming down - just another 3 inches or so.

The Chicken soup was a good choice for this cold winters day.
I thought I had posted the recipe before but can't seem to find it so I guess I didn't.

That's my day so far.  We are headed out in the snow to church in just a little bit.

Hope your day was a happy one.
