Who would have thought? Walking in a prewinter wonderland

If you live on the East Coast of the United States, you were bombarded today by a surprise pre-Halloween snowstorm. Now that we have our power back, we thought we’d share with you a few posts we were reminded of today:

 

As Dr. Lai struggled with chimney flues, she was reminded about hidden sources of  carbon monoxide.

 

 

 

Scrambling around for a halloween costume reminded Dr. Kardos of ways to keep the candy intake down to a reasonable amount. 

 

 

 

Squeezing children’s toes into snow boots from last year reminded us of  how to dress your child appropriately for cold weather.

 

 

 

Looking for matching mittens reminded us of home remedies to prevent dried chapped hands

 

 

 

Surely the cold, harsh weather is the fault of the retail industry- the big box stores lined their shelves with winter-holiday knick-knacks halfway through October. Mother Nature, like other mothers, was not pleased.
