THE ICE BOWL

Thought of sharing this photo with all of u. Though it looks like a glass bowl, this is actually ICE, which was not shaped in the form of a bowl deliberately:-) The vessel contained water and it was kept in the freezer, and when my mother touched the middle portion of the ice, it cracked and the ice from the top fell inside and this made it look like a bowl.
