cactus, soup, ice

Got prickly pear prickles in my fingers; tweezed them out. Ate red lentil soup with salted lemons. Temps well below freezing.

Can't imagine how cold it is where you are. We're getting temps in the teens and 20's, which is unusual for this area. Stay warm.

I think we're in the same weather system and are getting similar temps and precipitation for this round. Lots of ice here. It doesn't feel as cold as it is (possibly because I wear something like five layers at most times).

We went out to see Fortune Feimster on Saturday. It was about 17 degrees, so I broke out my Doctor Who scarf. Don't remember if you ever saw it, but my mother knitted it for me in '86 and it remains the warmest piece of outerwear I've ever owned. Still in remarkably good condition too.

I do remember! That scarf is legendary.

I once was wearing it to a restaurant when I ran into someone wearing a replica of the Tenth Doctor's overcoat. We greeted each other as Doctor.
