Has a murder mystery villain ever murdered using an icicle? There are several hanging from the sunroom roof that certainly look capable of being weapons. At least the sun was out & warm enough that they were dripping -- not really melting, but at least a slow steady drip, drip, drip. And the street is now showing black pavement, so I guess we can call it a small step toward spring.
Meantime, I'll stay curled up with my Kindle. Currently reading Murder by Yew -- a very enjoyable cozy, with a Cape Cod setting and a mature heroine who is also a gardener.
