Today I watered my plants by getting snow off the outside windowsill, packing it into little snowballs, and leaving them in the pots to melt. Now I’m wondering if you’re allowed to do that.

This is excellent snowball snow; soft and fluffy, but squeezes into a tough, moldable throwing mass. Too bad I have no one to attack. I’ll just settle for making little craters in the snow pack on the sidewalk below my window.
