Queueing for Ice-cream

I'm almost always feeling to warm or too cold. Chad teases me about the very narrow range of temperature I consider comfortable.

The temperature in Seattle this afternoon happens to fall within this narrow optimal range. The sun was shining. Not much of a breeze. On my walk to Wallingford, I could wear what Chad calls my "Singapore clothes"- short pants and a cotton blouse. I found that being in the shade was just as comfortable as being in the sun.


There were many people about, sitting outside, enjoying the warm day. Many were queueing up for ice-cream at Molly Moon's. The flavour which caught my eye- Pormegranate Curry Sorbet! I could kick myself for not joining in that queue today. I'm not making that same mistake tomorrow! Warm sunny day and Pomegranate curry sorbet- here I come!
