Mini Gingerbread Cheesecakes

One of my very favorite sounds is hearing the snowplow go through during an early winter morning. I love getting a heavy snowfall that covers everything with glistening bright snow! But I especially love that the snowplow means we might have a snow day and school is cancelled! I always check right away, crossing my fingers that we’ll be snowed in. I love snow days!
