Turns out those photographers who took photos of frozen bubbles have more practice (time? resistance to cold?) than I do. It’s actually quite hard to get your bubbles to land in one piece. But when they don’t, they don’t pop- they end up looking like bits of very thin plastic wrap. It’s very bizarre. I want to try it again with more layers so my legs don’t decide that it’s time to go inside and sit by the heater thankyouverymuch.

And for anyone who thought the title of this post was a Hobbit reference, at some point I will get around to posting a rant about a certain Kiwi director’s horrible fanfaction. But not right now, because I am making soup and it is nearly done.
