Almost as soon as I wrote this, God decided to cool down Kansas. It rained all night, and then we have had two wonderful 70 degree days. It is weird.

Perfect melting, Caren. I can feel the heat even though it's raining outside. P.S.: I spent a couple of years in the real desert. It was really hot)

It rained all night that day, so I did not have to water. It dreary this morning. I am hiding inside, terrified I might like it and play out there all day.

We could be throwing those eggs on the sidewalks to prove it would be faster cooking than a stove, Tom.
