I just got a piece of ice out of the freeze. For various reasons I have never had an ice maker in my freezer before. It was a really good ice slice. I don't think it should be called a cube because it has no qualities that are cubical. It is more in the form of an apple slice but made out of frozen water. Now that I have enjoyed the excitement of the auspicious occurrence I will take it for granted as most people with ice makers do. Even though I do still need to open the door to get the ice.

I have apple-slice ice pieces, too.
Anoreth made it home from church, instead of into a flooded ditch. It’s snowing now. Ash got snowed when she went out to piddle.

We have those at work. Manage to fit in glasses in the most difficult way.
At home we use modern ice cube trays. Plastic, not aluminum.

"It was a really good ice slice. I don't think it should be called a cube because it has no qualities that are cubical. It is more in the form of an apple slice but made out of frozen water." I had in a story, a feed tube from a glacier into a chamber heated by a volcanic hot spring. The ice got sliced off periodically like a bologna slice.
I lost that story in a hard drive crash, but I may reconstruct it one day. Er, month(s).
