Wintery Weekend

I was under the impression that it does not snow in Portland, but this past week has proved me wrong! Saturday we got another snowstorm. We decided we needed to get out of the house for a few hours, so we took the train downtown to the Portland Saturday Market. I was surprised to see all the vendors out and people shopping even with the awful weather. Here are some pictures of us in the snow at the market.





After we wandered around the market, we tried to find somewhere for lunch. A lot of restaurants and stores were closed due to the weather, but we ended up going to a place called Huber's which claims to be Portland's oldest restaurant. They are famous for their turkey dinner which is served everyday. Jeff and I got hot turkey sandwiches with stuffing, cranberries and gravy served over the sandwich. It really hit the spot, especially on such a cold wintery day.

Sunday has been another snowy day, it was so snowy that church was cancelled. We have been reading and watching a ton of movies. Jeff decided to make Jambalaya, it was delicious. He thinks it needs to be a bit more spicy, but I think it's great the way it is. Here are some pictures of the snow from our apartment.
