The snow is begining to pile up in Paradise. Some drifts are as high as a Mazda 3. This neighbour just got me a great deal on a snowblower so I guess I should give him a hand.

Snow drifts in Paradise #Newfoundland
The snow is begining to pile up in Paradise. Some drifts are as high as a Mazda 3. This neighbour just got me a great deal on a snowblower so I guess I should give him a hand.
Getting hard to see the houses across the street
The wind is picking up and it's getting hard to see the houses across the street. My guess is we have 15 cm of new snow on the ground and another 45 cm on the way today / tonight. The forecast is calling for a second storm erly in the week that could bring another 60 cms. Thank goodness my snow blower just arrived. :-)

Put lentils in a small saucepan and cover with cold water about 2 inches over the top. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook about 25 mins. Set aside. Bring the chicken stock to a boil in a sauce pan. Reduce the heat, add chicken, and cook about 6 to 8 mins. Remove chicken from stock and set aside. Reserve the stock for the soup. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, cut into bite sized pieces.
Heat oil over moderate heat. Cook the chopped onions for about 10 minutes, until tender and translucent. Add the curry, ginger, and garlic, and cook for 2-3 mins. Add the reserved stock to the onion mixture. Simmer about 10 mins. Add the diced tomatoes and lentils and bring to a boil. Add lemon juice and salt and papper to taste.
