1. There is a dusting of snow this morning -- as if the world has been lightly sugared.
2. As I am paying, my bottle of soy sauce falls over -- but no harm is done. "At least it's not fish sauce," says the shopkeeper. "When a bottle of that breaks, it takes a month to get rid of the smell."
3. I read until I can't keep my eyes open. It feels so good to put my book down and drift off to sleep.
