Not everything I found at the beach was strange and unusual.

I played outside in the snow for a while.

Then I sat on the heater for half an hour trying to thaw my butt.
I like looking at snow from inside, where it’s warm.

Sorry to disappoint anyone expecting a more weather-related picture today. The weather makes me want to hibernate. Baby turtles don’t.

I suffered technical difficulties yesterday, which I didn’t resolve before the Daily Show started. Thus, P365 is late.

Occasionally, there are days where I miss taking a photo for P365. Then there are days like this, where I am spoilt for choice. My adventures today started out with this over breakfast (with bonus VW convention in the parking lot):

Then they continued to this (with a bald eagle along the way, which was sadly too high for me to get a decent picture of)

and finally ended up with this: (This was taken in my front yard. I feel it might be a public service to create a warning sign with a deer wearing a dunce cap, thereby warning drivers on the road that this area features really stupid deer. I am in fact about as close as it looks in the picture. Also, this deer couldn’t be arsed to move when the car pulled into the driveway, when he was much closer. I predict he’s roadkill before Memorial Day.)

I spent part of the afternoon digitizing recipes from my grandmother’s recipe files. I call them files, but for anyone who knew my grandmother, they were about as filed as you’d expect- scattered throughout recipe books, clippings, and in completely random places. Mostly I’ve been digitizing and then getting rid of the originals. This one I’m keeping. Whoever compiled the 1948 edition of the Metropolitan Cook Book had a serious fixation on peanut butter. There is a recipe for peanut butter soup. No, really. Peanut butter soup. It is exactly what it sounds like- peanut butter turned into soup. I am preserving this for posterity.

From this (yesterday)

to this (this morning)

And beyond… it’s cold as a certain portion of a witch’s anatomy outside, but supposedly will warm back up tomorrow.
