Day 171

Snow!!! A teensy bit, at least.




I dutifully stirred up my Christmas pudding today, it being Stir-Up Sunday:

Stir up, we beseech thee, O Lord, the wills of thy faithful people; that they, plenteously bringing forth the fruit of good works, may of thee be plenteously rewarded; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

- Book of Common Prayer
