Time for Crusty the Breadchuck to prognosticate.
Wait a minute! Crusty the Breadchuck? I thought it was Punxatawny Phil!
Well, in my neck of the woods, according to the local paper, this salt-dough creation that was made in 1995, with leek root whiskers, peppercorn nose, and a mixture of coffee and milk for the coat, did see his shadow, meaning six more weeks of winter. Shoot, they should have taken "the thing" outside 5 minutes later...there wouldn't have been a shadow then! Oh well. As for the prognostication, I think I believe Crusty more than Phil...we're in the throes of winter here, with bitterly cold wind chills that are supposed to get even colder, snow, blowing snow, slippery roads, you name it. Yep, it's winter!
