Frozen

It was more ice than snow which greeted us this Thursday morning. The sound of scraping windscreen was very noticeable.

The snow and sleet that had fallen had also frozen. It made the back garden - already a building site - look more desolate.

While some work did progress I sorted out planning things for Christmas ( cards, decorations etc). Made some soup for tomorrow and some poached pears for dinner. The smell of red wine and cinnamon added to the sense of Christmas.
