Ok, so I gripe about winter a lot I know... the cold, the driving, the hibernation. Snow doesn't hold the magic for me that it once did. However, there are some pretty cool things about the season that I love and should probably focus on- hey, YOLO is all the rage now.
- As we are trapped indoors, we get to spend LOTS of together time as a family. Lots of movies, books, chats and meals.
- Rosy winter cheeks
- Red wine- nuff said... we went through most of these this winter.
- Snowy mornings when no one has work or school and we can curl up with toast and a steaming cup of tea (my all-time favourite breakfast)
- Soups- I make a large batch once a week all through the fall and winter and many days, we have it for lunch. I usually rotate between chicken corn soup, hot and sour and butternut squash but ever so often I try something new.
- Winter scented candles like Vanilla Sugar and Cinnamon.
- Flannel pjs and toasty cardigans. And fleece sheets- someone in this house has likened it to sleeping on a teddy bear.
- Award season- Grammys, Golden Globes, Screen Actors Guild and Oscars-- I must admit though, now I prefer the opening monologues (great job Amy Poelar and Tina Fey!) to the fashions.
- My winter white coat that I pull out for special occasions.
- Money saved-- in the summer, lots spent on entertaining, hostess gifts and bi-weekly pedicures. (Ok, I'm grasping at straws with this one)
- Winter break vacations.- T-minus 4 days to T&C
