It might be a good idea not to make a lot of “cheesy/dairy” stuff while you have a cold, CB.
This soup works best when you have a cold, the sooner made and eaten, the better!
Yes we went through lots of firewood in order to maintain the heat level in the house.
We shut off the generator when we went to bed last night.
It was 55 in here this morning-outside temp was 14.
Hubby started the generator when he got up, and the house was warmed up in no time to 68.
The power was out from late afternoon on the 23rd, to 1:15 this afternoon.
With the power back on and the furnace running it is 71.6 in here, and 21 outside.
