No matter how many times I see it, and no matter how many times I say to myself, "Not this time!", I weep buckets.

We had dinner at Corner Bakery down the street beforehand, but I brought our dessert:


And here is one of the pair of shoes I bought yesterday:

The other is a pair of black leather boots, and a good thing, too, because it's snowing. I'm not sure if it's "again" or "still". It was snowing when I left the opera last night, and commented to someone "from cherry blossoms to snow"!
