The market this morning was all winter and no snow. It was wet and cold (ranging from less than five degrees to, at one stage, a salubrious 5.2) but still no snow. Instead of snow, I bought snow peas, sugar snap peas, the rest of my soup ingredients, blood oranges, pullet eggs and salad vegetables. I had a moment where I pondered on the possibility of eating blood oranges in fresh-falling snow or making blood orange snowcones, but since all we got was freezing rain (the wind chill factor *still* brings the temperature down below zero and it's noon now) my dreams were defeated.

One day I will make blood orange snowcones. This is a solemn vow (maybe).
