Friday Night: Freezing rain. Trees falling. Power going out. Exploding transformers lighting up the sky. A room full of candles. A night without heat.

Saturday: Power back. No phone. No cable. Scone and cookie making. Party at J and Ks. Beer. Very silly games. Christmas and 80s music. Too much food. All hail the chinese cheese biscuit.

Sunday: Early morning scone making. Snow. Early morning Magic games at T and Cs. Beer. Several hours of Diplomacy resulting in a 7-way draw. More snow. Too much food. Caramel Baileys. Unfinished game of Risk.

Thanks to J, K, T, C and the weather for making it a weekend to remember.
