Outdoor walk in a spring frost in Mount Gambier.
Lulled into a false sense of security after my time in Queensland I didn’t wear my gloves.
It took twenty minutes after I got home for proper feeling to return to my hands.

Saw these chokoes in a fruit and vege shop while I was away. Not tempted. At all.
When I was a kid they grew on backyard vines, were pealed, seeded, steamed/boiled and best eaten smothered with melted butter and pepper.
There was a time overseas when I had them shredded and stir fried in a garlic oil type dish. That was okay. But generally they are a very ordinary vegetable.
Better for backyard games of cricket.
There are reports that Merriam-Webster who produce the official dictionary for Scrabble have released an updated edition with 300 words added.
Some of those words are featured here at this post on the Merriam-Webster website.
Probably the biggest news is that ‘OK’ is now on the approved list.
If you’re not happy about that you could say ‘ew’ or make a ‘frowny’ face, because they’re both there as well.
Scrabble purists will celebrate new words, the rest of us will lament the disintegration of English language.
Cue: zomboid, twerk, sheeple, wayback, botnet, emoji, facepalm, puggle and nubber.
She Waits is the title track from The Gray Havens’ recently released album.
(Their third full length studio album, I think)
Listen with Romans 8:19 in mind.
“She’s seen empires come and go
Watched the kingdom’s children grow
Sparks and embers far from home
Born to shine, and to behold
‘Cause on her chain is a lock and the key
Is the radiance she will see
From the light that’s gonna be
Cast from the sons and the daughters free”
