Don't trust the sun

I am still trying to get used to the weather here.  It really is strange to see the sun shining brightly outside but know that it might be cold and windy.  Like today, for instance.  The day looks bright and so we decided to head out for our usual walk, maybe even visit our garden.  But when I opened the main door, the blast from the wind told me that we could have to cut the walk short.

Just barely ten steps from the door, it started drizzling.  The wind, I might be able to stand, but getting pelted by cold drops of rain is not something I can cope with yet.  So we definitely could not have our walk today.  We only walked to the supermarket nearby to get some stuff and then back home.

But when we reached home, it started getting very bright again with no sign of rain.  But any thought of going out again was dashed when Pete asked me to look carefully at the trees and bushes around the building.  They were getting bashed by the strong winds.  And yeah, soon enough, it rained heavily.  At least my vegetables are getting enough water.

It was great weather for something warm and comforting.  Something that tastes of home.  I filled up a saucepan with water and put in some chopped cabbage, dried noodles, egg and soup granules.  In minutes, I had our meal ready.  Ahh...nothing beats instant noodles for days like this.
