That's a pretty rough storm anywhere, but really brutal in places
that aren't used to it. (We never have snow days here but do have
a few extreme cold weather days.)

Our roofs are engineered to handle that kind of snow load but in a
recent blizzard with 100 KM winds the roof was ripped off of the
Inuvik airport terminal.

There are major blizzards to the north of me and record breaking cold
to the south of me but everything is pretty seasonal and normal
right here, for which I'm grateful.

     Title: Bryndzove Halusky
Categories: Slovakian, Pasta, Dumplings
  Servings: 4

      3    Potatoes 
      4 tb Flour 
           Salt
      1    egg

Peel potatoes and finely shred them. Add egg and flour. Make a dough
that is not too tough but not to watery. You may use more or less
flour or add a little bit of water if it is too tough. Add 1 tsp of
salt. Boil water w 2 tbsp of salt. Use teaspoon to drop a little bit
of the dough into the boiling water. Be sure the water is always
boiling. When halusky are done they will float on top of the water,
Pick them out with a strainer. Because I didn't find bryndza here in
the US, (it is cheese from sheep), I used 1 package of Feta Cheese
and 3/4 of a pack of cream cheese, and 3-4 tbsp of milk. Heat
everything together. Mix all the time. When it starts to boil,
remove from the heat. Cut up little pieces of bacon and fry them.
Serve halusky with the cheese sauce on top and sprinkle with the
bacon pieces.
