Grace In Small Things: Winter Edition
I hate winter. It’s mocking me, what with its spread to New Orleans while I was there. But there are a few simple pleasures I take during winter that, while they may not completely make up for the suckitude of the season, make things at least tolerable. These things are:
- Being able to leave groceries in the car without worry of spoilage.
- Using your back porch as a walk-in beer cooler.
- Hot beverages in mugs. Perpetually. Lately, I’ve been making hot chocolate with half milk, half coffee. Homemade marshmallow on top. Plain coffee will gladly do.
- Scarves, which are my very favorite accessory ever.
- Dogs as portable bed warmers. Neko is the best heated blanket that ruined a bunch of stuff I used to own ever.
