Oooooh...the weather Sunday a week ago turned miserable, with grey skies and mists and sprinkles and short rain showers (and even an odd flash of lightning that evening!). It utterly soured my mood after having enjoyed unseasonable gorgeous weather over that preceding weekend on the campus of my beloved UNC-Chapel Hill. But it also made clear that the best dinner option was something from the realm of soup, so in our bowls was cheddar potato soup with all its hearty goodness and soul-soothing feels. I didn't mind the special treat of the final slice of Atlantic Beach pie, even as stuffed as I was. In those chilly evening mists, making downtown's skyline difficult to discern, I still undertook my 3-mile stroll. It's the rare occasion when I hated failure more than I hated rain.
