Homemade Soup Saturday!

Mornin'! It's 39° this chilly, dark and rainy Wildwood morn. Daybreak (notice I didn't say "sunrise") is due in less than a ½ hour. The sky is lightening as I blog but the sky looks ominous and gray. Temps will rise just a bit into the low-40's as today brings a mix of weather. We'll have scattered showers to start and as the afternoon approaches...a wintry mix as the snow showers are due in. Steadier snow showers (causing some slushy accumulation) will arrive by early evening as the temps drop into the 20's. Then, you guessed it...icy conditions will be prevelant all throughout the night. Take heed if you're out and about navigating the challenging roads and streets. Tomorrow's looking brighter and sunnier, but cold and blustery. The winds are currently from the N-NE but will be shifting shortly (say that fast 5 times) this early afternoon from the N-NW (15-20mph ) bringing with it gale warnings and gusting of 30+mph. High tide:9:37a.m.; Low tide:3:57p.m.; Ocean temp: 45°; Sunset: 5:33p.m. The beans are soaking for the homemade Navy Bean Soup I'll be throwing together today. 38 days until Spring!

My favorite is pasta fagioli. My mother made it with fresh spinach added and olive oyl (I mean olive oil, Popeye).
