We had a beautiful full moon here. It is a special day for us: we cook a sweet (Kheer) and keep it under moonlight for sometime before eating ๐
Reminds me of my childhood in East Yorkshire, next to the River Humber, where we often had icicles growing from power cables and gutters. We used to get periods of 3 weeks when we were beset by freezing fog.
Stay warm, Lynette.
Thanks, Stuart. ๐ We can get freezing fog here at times as well (weโre on the shores of the worldโs tenth largest lake, so it has a big impact on local weather).
Thank you! ๐ Itโs not too cold yet; only about -6 or so, but Iโve noticed that itโs slowly dropping. By December we will be facing the real northern deep freeze, though.
We got cold here over the last 10 days, but we’re warming up this week to the mid 60s (17c) and all sunshine. I might even wear shorts one more time. ๐
Wow! Shorts! I wish. ๐ Iโm starting to think about organising my boots, mitts, etc. I wonโt need my parka for a while (not cold enough yet) but itโs coming.

Sounds wonderful! ๐ Itโs clear here as well and thereโs a very good view of this rare moon. I hope you had a good evening. ๐
Oh yes Lynette- with Godโs grace it was beautiful
๐
For some reason, that’s made me want to carve a sabretooth cat from ice!
Hahaha. ๐ That would be very appropriate!
Brrr….stay warm!
Thanks, Jill. ๐ Itโs not too cold yet ( by northern standards). โ๏ธ

Ice fangs, that’s so cute (and makes me shiver). Stay warm. And Happy Halloween.

“Ice fangs”! Great name for them. Do you follow Sarah McGurk’s blog? (https://wordpress.com/read/feeds/67735639/posts/2996748676) I think you’d like it.
Thank you! ๐ And thanks for the suggestion; Iโll take a look at her blog. ๐
Youโre right; I like her blog. ๐
Brrrr! Those icicles belong in a tall drink.
Thatโs a great idea! Can use them as swizzle sticks, too. ๐
Exactly.
They do look like fangs, now that you mention it!
Reminds me of the comic where Snoopy is on his doghouse and an icicle looms over him. ๐
Hahaha. ๐ I forgot about that. Your reminder gave me a nice chortle. I miss Snoopy.
Brrr. No ice. Not yet. Eeeks.

Haha. Great title!
Thank you! ๐ Was trying to get into the Halloween mood. ๐
You’re welcome. We don’t usually have cold Halloweens like that here. Stay warm!
