Snow Daze

Several of my students told me about a new talisman for snow: place a wooden spoon under your pillow. On Thursday night, sick of kids and a rather mundane winter, I placed a wooden spoon under my pillow. I forewent the Melanie Snow Dance and the Melanie Cap of Foil, although I did stick to wearing my pjs inside out.

Yesterday, I got my wish. A snow day.

But I forgot to remove the wooden spoon from my pillow, and it never stopped snowing!



Saturday, 2:00

Will there be more tomorrow? Was the wooden spoon under the pillow so powerful that it might also effect a snow day on Monday?
