Carnival #154

Is it snowing where you are? Is there more on the way?

Here, in West Virginia, it has been an unusually cold and snowy winter. I am not a big fan of winter, but when it is here, you've got to make the best of it. It is time to set a fire in the fireplace, and grab a hot cup of something to drink.

Winter is also the perfect time to try new projects. In this week's Make it from Scratch Carnival you will find lots of great recipes and ideas that will help to pass the time these cold winter months.
