If you haven't already checked out Cara's snow shovelling video make sure you do. Feel free to share it with family and friends who you know could use a few tips. No one wants something as tedious as shovelling to create a painful injury. Make sure you're doing it right and preventing harm by watching and learning from the video.  

Even if you're not feeling the love, you will definitely enjoy this healthy, family friendly substitute for the traditional Spaghetti Bolognese. If you are looking for some comfort food with out the additional calories check out the recipe for Turkey Bolognese with Spaghetti Squash. Who knows, it might inspire some romance.
Please also have a quick read over the STORM DAY Cancellation Policy. As it is winter, a refresher in that area is a good idea!  Thank you for understanding!
