LMAO! :dancin: Oh yeah, it ended up perfect. I lightly buttered the outside so it came out that dark golden brown, sprinkled sage, garlic powder and onion powder on it as well. I stuffed it with chopped onion and layed it on a bed of chopped carrots and celery while it cooked and basted it every 25 mins or so to keep it moist.

Yep, can't have the Thanksgiving without corn on the cob! The cornbread muffins were a massive hit as well :p

Okay, I'll make you a spot... but you'll have to fly to Milwaukee LOL!!! :D

Ahahahahaha! Yeah well acording to the 2012 movie the south pole shifts to Wisconsin so .... :cold:

Yes, we really had days of -22C during the day. The wind chill factor was on top of that so it felt more like -32, -34.. something in that range.

Here was a pic I took on the way home from work after getting 18.5 inches of snow in one storm:

Oh my god!! haha, that pic of the car is classic :p

I so would come visit!! I love the idea of playing in snow hehe. But I just know I'll whinge because it will be so cold haha.
 
Re: AUSSIES! Get in here!

Haha yeah playing in snow is just :woohoo: :woohoo:

Yeah you'd all whine about it some... but when you run around a bit you are warm so you'd do okay... just gotta bundle up good! :cold:

Oh, I don't know... I hope it's republished here! Otherwise I'll have to find it online, as I want a new one to read on the plane when I go back. 24 hours trips leave a lot of time for reading :p
 
Re: AUSSIES! Get in here!

I have played in snow...but there wasn't much of it hehe

I made a snowman that was like....a third of my height haha

it was really cute though :p
 
Re: AUSSIES! Get in here!

Wow, I'm impressed. I haven't ran into many Aussies that have said they've seen it or touched it. :clapping: Haha Yeah I bet it was cute :D

Yeh, I did take a photo.....it's somewhere! Who knows haha

Yeh, I went to canada years ago, so that's where I first saw snow :)

I was about 12 at the time, and I always thought it would be nice and fluffy like on the movies...and was disappointed when it just looked like ice that comes out of the freezer when you defrost it haha

but still lovely and pretty and fun :)

Yeaaaaaaaaah you know if you find the pic you are SO gonna have to post it :p :dancin:
LOL! It sorta depends on the type of snow (yep there are types). You definately don't get the fluffy stuff all the time, especially if it's not a certain temp.
In Milwaukee, being right on the shore of Lake Michigan, we get "lake effect" snow. It's generally fluffier, larger and heavier quantities. It's the best snow for making things and having snowball fights and when you walk on it, it pops :yes:

This vid on youtube... is from Milwaukee: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqJAuzB_t3g&feature=related I remember that storm!!! My bus got stuck in the middle of friggin National Ave that morning :p
