Don't make me get up, run off to Radio Shack and buy a thermometer.

If, say, the air is very dry, or if there is much wind in the kitchen (for instance, the walls are not yet finished to build), then the outermost layers of ice will evaporate. The phase transition from ice to vapor is an endothermal one, meaning that it requires some energy, so the remaining matter will stay at 0°C.
