I am used to cold. But it was beyond cold on Saturday morning! First time in years that our car did not start. Truck started fine, so we used that to run the errands we had to do and then went home and stayed inside. It was considerably warmer on Sunday morning and car started just fine.
I say truck started fine, but that does not mean there were no problems. The tires had frozen into ice on the driveway and it just spun and spun, even with 4 wheel drive. Jerome put ice melt under the tires and eventually moved it. then Jerome put the driver's window down and it would not go back up. Too cold to even consider driving with open window, so I got a large clear plastic bag and taped it over the opening, thinking we would have to drive to Honda dealer for help. But by the time we go to the post office (2 miles away) the truck had warmed enough so the window went back up.
Sure am glad to see 35 degrees today. A whole lot better than -20.
Jim, one of my favorite quick lunches is eggs poached in spaghetti sauce and served with crusty Italian bread.
