I want you all to meet Fred.
Fred, this is everybody. Everybody, this is Fred.

Fred was our first snowman of the year. He had charcoal for eyes, a baby carrot for a nose, and a wire twist-tie (from some Christmas lights) for a mouth. His scarf and hat came from various items lying around my studio. And from eBay.

Fred was made with love. He is a nerds snowman. I mean, really. Who uses a twist-tie for a snowman’s mouth?

Fred is nearly all melted now. He was cute. We’ll miss him.
