This is the lowest temperature I've ever experienced at sea level...I'm not even sure it was this low when I was up in Mount Titlis in central Switzerland some 20 years ago. I just did a quick check on the internet and the temperature up there, 3020m above sea level is currently -7°C and its low is at around -12°C. So this temperature in Boston is an all time low I've ever experienced, at -16°C. This occurred yesterday and it was caused by the Arctic winds. Thankfully, it's warmer today at -3°C. We stayed in these past two days...and it's been pretty boring, and Meg's always asking to be entertained all the time! I've resorted to playing a new computer game, called Peggles...it's highly addictive and I've completed all 55 levels in about 24 hours, interrupted of course. Other than that, this is one of the things we've been up to...
ICE PROJECT1 : Silicon cups usually used for baking are prepared.
ICE PROJECT2: Water and a sprig of pine from the Christmas tree are added, followed by some twine rope.
ICE PROJECT3: Project is hung on branch outside our window. It's so cold outside, it doesn't melt! It's also our visual temperature gauge cos if it does melt, we know it's above 0°C.
ICE PROJECT4: Enhancing our window view.

So pretty! And such a purposeful (and educational) craft idea!
