Feeling kind of Jewish, having Asian food for dinner on a Christian holiday. It was delicious!
@kellydmcc.bsky.social had pork dumplings and udon noodles. He _may_ have been immersed for the last two weeks in AC Shadows and thereby Japanese food.

This one was weird. Many, many “border” pieces and 16 corner pieces. Kind of fun, kind of frustrating.

This one was a murder mystery jigsaw.
I thought I didn’t have the storybook so I assembled it imagining what the mystery would be.
I am pretty pleased that I figured out the main clue without the story! I found the storybook after taking the puzzle apart.

Feels like frozen hell out there at -13F. I am going to work from home while poor Kelly has to go to his usual Monday meeting. He is NOT biking today!
