Thanks for the heads-up!
Just a reminder to please be kind to your neighbors — especially letter carriers, delivery drivers and healthcare workers, grocery workers, etc. We are still going to and from work in this and may be parking farther from home tonight and tomorrow morning due to parking bans. Please don’t shout at us for taking “your” on-street parking spots (this has happened to me before), and please clear your sidewalks — it’s the law, but it also helps keep us “essential workers” from busting ass on ice.

Don’t make the mistake I made with my sidewalk in my first year as a homeowner — if you salt first, the bottom layer will thaw into a slushy mess while the snow is still falling, but then it will turn into ice, making it harder to remove even if the rest of the snow layer on top is fluffy. You want to use salt to break the crust on top of the snow to make removal easier, not create a bottom crust.

New London here. Looks like our numbers used to be just as bad. Explains why my kindergartner’s school is so adamant about the kids coming to school even if they’re sick.

Yes! Owners are Lebanese. I think there were four or five different kinds of baklava last time I went if OP is a baklava fan. https://www.lazizah.net/

Even wilder than that is that the lady is just Mrs. Husband’s name, not her own name. Trusted with her neighbor’s toddler but not to have her own first name in the paper.
